I had a similar problem with the guy that used to live in the condo unit directly below mine. He used to have his buddies over to play Xbox and they'd be whooping, yelling and screaming into the wee hours of the morning. Sound would travel right up into my place.

  1. Got up at 7am the morning following one of his late xbox bro sessions. I took the speaker cabinet to my guitar amplifier and put it facedown on the floor. Put in my earplugs and then proceeded to crank it as loud as it would go, letting the guitar feedback for a good five minutes than started to play a nice assortment of Hendrix songs complete with wah effects and whammy bar dives.
  2. Watched movies with lots of explosions and gun-fire during the early morning hours with the surround sound cranked.
That helped but what really cured that problem was when his girlfriend moved in with infant in tow. No more noise problems from him after that........
I love it!

I don't give a crap about the many quizzes going around right now asking me which [fill in the blank] I am. They were cute as first but now I just skip over them. Life is too short to answer these silly 'questionnaires'.

Apologies to anyone who is copying them from Facebook to this site!

I have to admit that I give at least a crap about a (very) few "reality" shows, pretty much having to do with survival. No, real (more or less) survival, not placed somewhere with a camera crew and made-up games.

I kinda like Survivorman except I got a little tired of the main thrust being how long he can go without eating, but still, you do get the feeling that he could found dead someday with his cameras there to film it. I kinda like Naked and Afraid except when the contestants are annoying, and it's a restful show when they don't have annoyance attacks. I used to like Man vs. Nature until I found out that the intrepid Bear and crew were staging a lot of the action, staying in the local motel during a lot of the film time, and he sure does like to kill things for the show. Dirty Jobs was entertaining sometimes too.

Online quizzes. They were fun but just wore me down. That, and one quiz said that my personality should have me living in New York City, and while I like that town for up to three or four days, and I fully understand why so many people do like to live there, it is not not not the place for me to live. Dead wrong on that one, pals.

George Bush? Which one? I hope it's not the one who must be in his 90's by now. I hope he's not dead because that would be totally embarrassing to have missed hearing of it.

What are arc sodiums?
Yessir, it was the elder Bush that leaped from a plane with a parashute, he was attached to another guy (in tandem). He enjoyed it. Just got back in the news this morning because he sent them a nice Thank You note. Big Whoop! Arc sodium's is the term that King uses to describe a simple street light. We tease on here about it because they always seem to pop up in his stories somehow, somewhere, sometime.....

I am so over crap about all the pill commercials and erectile dysfunction commercials. No two people I have ever seen has been in two separate tubs-What the heck does that have to erectile dysfunction?
...the only thing I've ever deduced, is that trying to do the old slap & tickle while in a cold empty bathtub, would cause ED....or trying to stretch it between two bathtubs would simply put to much strain on the old dilithium crystals if you know what I mean...
