Cupcake? Heresy? Pony? 4 stacks of plexi?

Morning everyone.
Coffee and bacon good this morning!
Just finished the F1 race and switched over to golf.
My man Scottie has a 3 shot lead, and the whinny Rory Mac-n-cheese is 3 over!

Need to go back to the beach today cause the eye candy is everywhere!

Maybe the new guy that likes penis shaped hot dogs will come back and amuse us some more today!

well hot dogs are out today. glad i finished the smoked brats yesterday.

corned beef going in the smoker. i left the fat layer on because it was so small.



decisions were made...




naw, we're raw doggin' today, that's for pork anyway.

no idea what this is or who planted it, but thank you squirrels and birds.

jesus take the wheel...

I use a larger version of that nylon pick. IIRC, Victor gave me one a long time ago.

I do take an emory board to the little zig-zag things and sand them down smooth, however.

Morning all. Coffee good....

Hmmm... Goat hood on a station wagon... Goat Wagon?

finch feeder on the move.

I envisioned a squirrel chewing the piss out of a pedestal to release the delicious bounty.
Maybe I put some plant on the short hook.

Yow... only May 18th...embrace this time.... after 4th of July, time speeds up in a pell-mell rush to November.
Chilly as heck today, tho; 56 degrees; I even gave the heat a blast this morn.

Well, that doesn’t look like a Gibson you are playing - so there’s that.


Is there a “proper” way to hold a pick?
I dunno.
That doesn’t look much different than what I do, but my playing really sucks.


Surely the Inter-Webz has guidance here?

There's probably a strictly proper way to hold a pick out there according to some virtuoso from a long gone era, but yeah, I think you've got a point that it's very individualized. How I've been holding it since I started has been muting strings apparently, though. I'm having trouble finding a way to hold the pick, and the picks themselves, that I like, hence the random questions for y'all.

I've got Tortex picks from .50 to 1.14; T3 in .88 and 1.14; Tortex Wedge in .60, .73, and 1.14; Ultex Sharp in .73 and 1.14; Ultex triangle in .73; red Jazz III and black Jazz III in regular and Max Grip; Ultex Jazz III and XL Jazz III, Dragon's Heart Graphite; Gator Grip .96, 1.14, and 2.0; nylon .60, .73, and .88; some Gravity picks; Stubby 3.0; delrin 1.5 and 2.0, and that's off the top of my head as far as my pick collection goes.

I would have to make a jig for that.
Different hole patterns on different picks would drive me batty.

We got a big one over in White Lake.
NEVER go there week before Xmas.

Ever since CB mentioned poppies I've had Thin Lizzy's Opium Trail running through my head.
