But it is a GOOD boring.You guys who enjoy golf, great, just so damn boring, especially at that kind of cost to be bored (and frustrated).
Just got a used DVD-A of Billy Cobham's Spectrum, which I've wanted for a while. Not as good as I imagined but still quite nice.
LOL for some I know, just too damn boring to me. This is a lot more fun to me. My grandfather was a huge fan, tho, was president of three different golf/country clubs during his life; he even hired a local champ to tutor me when I was a kid but all I could think about was something more fun to do, like riding my bike or playing baseball or skating or a bunch of other things. Hot sweaty Chicago summers weren't helping, tho. Tried again as an adult with a mountain bike buddy whose wife liked to golf, but even a very pretty course with sufficient libation in the golf bag just didn't do it for meBut it is a GOOD boring.![]()
Yup, same here. I also still have a CD of the single "Hey Man, Nice Shot", which has like 5 completely different mixes on it.Filter album is good. I had that exact copy when it came out a LONG time ago.
They have some random, but good, songs on a few movie soundtracks as well. The Crow City of Angles is one that comes to mind.
The whole Short Bus album is on Filter's YouTube channel, including the various remixes. I liked the music after my first run through and plan to buy the album.Yup, same here. I also still have a CD of the single "Hey Man, Nice Shot", which has like 5 completely different mixes on it.
The guy that started this band Filter was the touring guitarist for NIN before this band.
Its a really good album. To me, Filter sounds like a mix between Tool and NIN .The whole Short Bus album is on Filter's YouTube channel, including the various remixes. I liked the music after my first run through and plan to buy the album.
I have a few RC cars, but no crawlers (yet). Crawling does look fun, esp if you have limited space.Older I get, the less I care about how ridiculous I may look, doing just about anything. At least with clothes on. Lately it's been RC off road vehicles. Why? The running gear fascinates me. I have wrenched on vehicles since I was 6. So much so, that I grew to hate it. Well, this is different. Same types of systems, minus the busted knuckles and grody fingernails. Like anything else, these days, a default path to upgrades and other modifications, along with an entire market of aftermarket parts and accessories to keep one busy tinkering, if they want.
Anyway, I bought this Redcat Gen8 V2 Scout. Fun stuff.

I had another, but it paled in comparison to the Scout, so I tore it all apart, and redesigned the suspension from the frame on out, and made a contender out of it. It started out life as some bargain basement, cartoonish monster truck. I raised the motor and transmission an inch, put new axles with accommodations for multilink, new, OEM styled wheels and tires, cutting out fenders and adding flares. Toyota Hilux.

I welded the center skid, suspension mount together at work. It's based on equal length, parallel links. Pinion angle remains constant throughout the suspension travel range.

I have also shortened the bed an inch, for clearance.

In all honesty, off-roading actual trucks also ends with you breaking something so the cycle is the same. The price, however, is not the same.I have a few RC cars, but no crawlers (yet). Crawling does look fun, esp if you have limited space.
Most of my stuff is related to back yard bashing! I really like the Short Course Truck category, it's kind of like the RC equivalent of stadium truck racing. I have a couple SCTs (Turnigy Trooper), 4 wheel drive, front/back/mid diffs. Fun stuff, and they go FAST! All sorts of upgrades available. The only catch-- Pretty much every time I take them out, I end up breaking something so it's a cycle of run/break/repair/run/repeat. At least I have plenty of spare parts!
