Hmmm, Chief twisted my arm, and I just had to buy that 128 gB SDcard a few minutes ago

ah, you missed the point.... an oncoming driver who runs you off the road is headed "behind you", so I am not trying to catch "front plates" and that is the problem here in Oklahoma, we don't have Front Plates either.

So, as the miscreant travels on headed behind you, the Rear View camera is the one that will catch his Rear License Plate hopefully. I once figured out that at an assumed 65 mph speed for each of us, the rear camera only has 5 frames "worth of time" to catch the Rear Plate before it is so far away as to be unreadable. That is because our Closing Rate is 130 mph and at 30 Frames/Second you better be fast, or they are gone.

I got a new phone.

Nexus 6P. It seems I'm the only one who takes a photo of the front of this phone. Everyone else seems to take a photo of the back.

I'm hoping this'll speed up my work laptop.

Well that explains it. Yeah, I've only ever seen the back of the phone.

I bought some tires for my car. I'll probably replace this car next year, so I didn't want to spend the money for top of the line tires. These seem like a good balance of price to performance.

I had a coupon code, so I actually ordered them from Tire Rack's eBay store.

I'm a huge fan of beer butt chicken. I have a couple of woks just for doing chickens on the grill/smoker. Yesterday I became aware of a larger version specifically designed for a turkey.
I had to have one for the holiday.

Good thing you added the arrow pointing to the bag. 'Cause yeah, I'd really have to be scared if you bought the boys :eek:

Nice!

I have been instructed to buy a laptop for my boss' niece using the company credit card. I was looking at a touch-screen flip book for her.

Nice. Consider a further upgrade to Ubuntu for better performance

Got a new pickguard for my new used guitar. It's a black guitar and it had a mint green one on it. Seriously, it was ugly and just all wrong and bugged the crap out of me. Yeah, I went with white. So much better!

Pictures? I am a sucker for guitar mods.

(You should have seen what I did to my old Telecaster Bass ... dang I miss her.

)

Clementine_3 · Nov 25, 2015

I'll snap one later. It's a '07/08 MIM standard telecaster. Whoever had it before the guy I bought it from added a three saddle bridge, changed the knobs to domed and put alnico pickups in. It's all great now that the pickguard is right. I'm not sure I would have modded one but do really like it. Now to learn to play...

Clementine_3 · Nov 25, 2015

Here it is in all it's glorious crappy inside with no good lighting flash camera pic

lunatic59 · Nov 25, 2015

If you keep that up, my next purchase is going to be ... I don't even want to think about it because don't have the time to practice enough to be as good as I once was and right now I could star on "America's got NO Talent".

Clementine_3 · Nov 25, 2015

Well. I would certainly beat you on that show! I can play chords, sort of. I am still working on F though, had it down but then lost it again. Started on the kid's guitars, he uses a mix of 10 & 11 strings so I was used to that. Mine came w/9's so I used them a lot (you know, a week) and got F. Then I just changed to 10's and lost F. hahaha. So yeah, I'm the winner for NO talent!

lunatic59 · Nov 25, 2015

Yes, but can you play "Stairway to Heaven", "Smoke on the Water" and "Freebird"?

AZgl1500 · Nov 25, 2015

I found a close out on my favorite "car tire" for the rear of my Honda 1800 Goldwing.
snapped it up because the "profile" of the tread most closely approximates that of a m/c type tire.

Now, when my current car tire wears out, I have the same brand replacement "on the shelf" here at home, and already mounted up on a spare wheel. I like the 'RF' or Run Flat feature of this tire. No blowouts at 75 mph for me...

it is a Michelin Primacy Alpin PA3 RF ZP 195-55-16

here is how it looks on the bike, bike is leaned over on the Side Stand.

Clementine_3 · Nov 25, 2015

I'll start with something easy then work my way up to never playing any of those. Comfortably Numb someday maybe...

psionandy · Nov 25, 2015

I've just caught up to the smart-watch craze ... with cutting edge 2012 technology

And I've got to say, that its awesome having notifications on my wrist.... and a battery that I don't have to care about.
