Stoned Festivus For The Rest of Us

Mapping has been a problem. hes not the only victim of that. however should've survey land prior to planting.. hemp or pumpkin / not your land, not your grow. rightful owners of property can just come an take it..

 

Yup...

 

might smoke some bongs and play some games.

 

It's his land, he just didnt have one of his two fields licensed to grow hemp

 

I imagine tobacco farmers dealt with the same strong arming.. Its always about paying the piper somewhere..

 

I turned down a job to pick vegtables. The celery was unacceptable..

 

Anyways... There is some history to this amp, besides it being a freaking amazing piece of gear.





It's a 2001 Matamp USA GT120, made from Matamp UK parts, built by Electric Amp Company. (Who acquired the rights to build "Matamp" in the late 90's, along with parts from UK production.) They made a complete range of "colored" amps, Green, Red, Black, White, etc. based off the same circuit. (still do make a modern version of them) All with similar font and matching tolex covering.

This amp was traded back in to Electric Amp on a new amp several years ago. In April of this year it was completely checked, tested and rebuilt with original style components All done by the original manufacturer. It's basically a brand new late 90's Matamp UK GT120.

There's more...

This particular amp and two other identical units, "Blue Matamp" with blue tolex and No Serial Number were ordered from Electric Amp/Matamp USA by Blue Man Vegas LLC... There's this musical group called "The Blue Man Group", maybe you've heard of them? Yeah... This amp was part of their stage show 2001-2003.

BMG LLC continued to order amps from Electric Amps with "Green logo/green tolex" and then later "Electric Amp logo/orange tolex"... They never ordered more "Blue" amps other than the original 3, "No Serial Number" units.

Electric Amp Company is shipping this 'One of Three" amps, It should be here next week.

 

Helicopter landing on a dolly is going to be part of our training today.. the video was actually taken from the airport im training at.. however not our helicopter but another. Has a very rough landing. It's actually kind of weird that this happened where I'm training at it's featured today on our online ground School which is three states away.. community don't mess around

 

The fish are settling in well, migrated around the tank in klans. Thunder around feeding time and under the lights is of course attracted to their bright colours so he chases them. They don't seem to care so much, they're more agile than he is. The 2nd catfish finally made an appearance and honest I thought he was dead 6months ago lol. So he was out. They've been very good at cleaning my tank but they're so ugly and bullies too. The two zebra loaches are good. The big fat one lol I dunno, I reckon he's too fat but I can't stop him from eating the snails.

Maybe like 8 years ago we bought a fish and it came with a tiny little snail. We thought it was cute, this little snail and had no idea they were pests. So we added this one tiny little cute snail to our aquarium 8 years ago. And about 7 years and 6 months ago, that one tiny cute little snail, had erupted into a aquarium bed that literally is an infestation.

They're a trumpet snail and can breed by themselves. So it just laid eggs and we didn't know. So. One good way was to cut up a cucumber. They looooove cucumbers so they'd l go to it that's I caught them all.

Even when we move house I thought I have the bastard under control now. And I drenched my rocks and soil in hot water to kill everything and for maybe 6 months I thought it worked too but slowly but surely we saw snails.

So we bought the loaches. They are trumpet snail hunting experts and you can tell the big fella is well. Seasoned lol. With just these two fish, they keep the snail infestation down to a minimum. Although the bottom of the tank is littered in snail shell skeletons, I don't see them alive much anymore, I only see the two zebra loaches digging in the rocks to get them.

Of course being curious I would also feed the loaches snails too if drop them on the rock top. The loaches basically suck them out, more often than not tearing the snail body is 2 - 4 attempts. It doesn't look like a fun death.

 

Cut down the second one today. Trichomes were mostly cloudy with a few amber. I'd have let it go longer but still fighting bud rot and there is a ton of rain for the next couple of days.

 

I've been checking three times a day morning noon and night everything still looks good out there... I know from experience not to count on that trophy until I cross the finish line but I can see it I can see the finish line trait there there it is I can see it everything is so frosty

 

I just found out tonight that Bluetooth is named after a Viking

 

Yes the bluetooth symbol is a Bind rune of his name.

It combines: ᛒ᛫ᚹ᛫ᚷ

I've never actually looked into the Bind itself or its meaning, but the ᛒ is the rune for B. ᚹ =. W and ᚷ is a G. But I'd say the actually Bind itself has nothing to do with phoenitic principals, I also have not done the numerical properties which means almost everything in a Bind rune.

 

Doing all the weed spraying for the end of spring here and some garden work. Bought new colorful plants for fish. Doing a 2nd coating on the firedrum. Pesticide spraying done too.

 

Oh damn I completely forgot the nascar race was a Saturday night and found out who won from a meme. I'll just watch it later. I don't care about the winner but I want to see how my boys raced.

Go the stereo speaker pumping some Molly Hatchet this morning. in my Denver Bronco sweat pants and a Bintang singlet top. 10/10

 

Old vs New firedrum. My paint is still drying. I was starting to paint the inside but then I don't want paint smoking around the place so decided not to.

Does anybody have any suggestions on how I can preserve my firedrum? Right I have cleaned with 100% alcohol and then layered two costs of high heat paint to the outside.

Next weekend I'll send the old girl out in a blaze of fury and hell. she's been a great drum with a lot of great nights that'll only be shared between my wife and I in front of it. About 26 months old. I just didn't preserve her enough and left her outside to rust out. I want to take care of the next.

 

Because the wheel hub is welded to the base, that'll last forever. It'd be cool to grow a weed plant in there lol. Rustic old look. The drum side would eventually fall onto the ground and the weed plant would be left standing high and proud.

 

no luck with jobs lately. I couldn’t concentrate in the orange juice factory not suited to be a tailor muffler factory was just exhausting couldn’t cut it as barber no patience to be a doctor didn’t fit in the shoe factor and I just couldn’t see any future as a historian...

 

my ear hurts from stupid earplug. the way I was laying on it.

 

Change ear to butt
