Even easier! I let her get a couple hermit crabs. If they live a month, I'll consider it a win.

I admit I had to research the German designation for Hermit Crabs...but man, did someone paint the crabs housing into multicolor?

He also just painted the chrome portions on the front lip & rear diffuser with Rustoleum black spray paint. Actually came out great. I think I've talked him into a light black wrap on the rear reflectors in the middle of the black bumper.
Hmm now you have me thinking lol, looks a lot more aggressive! I'll see if the boss lady would bite on any of these ideas. Appreciate the pictures!

Haha, I saw a box of timbits (from Tim Hortons) at first... aka doughnut holes. Those might be a bit crunchy. Hermit crabs are cool, that's a big one!

LOL! Now I want donuts.

And it is! Poor thing was so cramped inside that orange shell. It's already changed into a bigger blue shell that I put in the cage. At first I was like shit, how do we lose a hermit crab, and then a new shell started moving lol.

I got fed up with the Magic Mouse from Apple. Had a problem with one that would need me to blow into the optic opening regularly to make it work. No idea. Bought another one. 3 months later same thing. Thinking that having 4 long hair cats is part of the issue so....... bought the track pad. We'll see.

I think he got the wheels done for pretty cheap. You can always shop around on those. Problem is the turnaround can be 3-5 days, and that's no good when you need to use the car.

Purchased last week at Savage Guitar on Long Island. My previous guitar? Purchased in San Francisco in 1969. A new guitar every fifty years seems reasonable...

Hey thanks, man. It was (to me) the best-sounding -- and happened to be the best-looking of 30 instruments, maybe 20 luthiers, I tried at two shops. Quite an education. I was about to buy one at $15K until this appeared at half that price. Here's a description, maybe TMI!

Nice. I love cedar top guitars. My holy grail would be a James Olson "James Taylor" signature in Brazilian rosewood. Sadly I am unwilling to pony up the $25-30K it would take to find one.

I don't play classical but love that myrtle wood on yours. Bet it is wonderful and the cedar doesn't need a break in I think. Congrats.

I placed a deposit down nearly a year ago. And finally our perfect little Puppy is coming home this weekend! My family is very excited.
She is a hybrid: Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and Toy Poodle. She cost a pretty penny.

Her name is Zaya

Our 21st anniversary is tomorrow and to my wife’s horror there is no traditional gift for 21st anniversaries. She found some website that said fire is used to celebrate 21st anniversaries. (). So she came up with the idea of a fire pit table, which I assembled last weekend and we used tonight for the first time now that the temps dropped a bit.

I think the 21st Anniversary "Fire" means that you light one or the other spouse up.

And bring marshmallows.
