So Marshall’s not worried about how much people are spending on Gluten-Free products. Strange name for an aircraft carrier; The USS Gluten-Free.

Any list without Hammond on it has to be baloney.

Dang, we’ve got a lot of them. With the Gerald Ford, and the Eisenhaur going on a Mediterranean cruise, I googled “carrier strike groups” and we’ve got 11 of them.
The money invested in the GF scares me. It makes a big expensive target, and inexpensive drones and missiles are getting awfully accurate and successful as cheap deterants.

The unwritten loser in all this is Ukraine. The military attention of the Western world is shifting to the Gaza Strip.
And Russia has the resources and the staying power to grind out a long conflict.

I keep thinking that one of roadblocks to our understanding is our country’s obsession with good guys and bad guys. We want to be able to judge right and wrong in every situation. You’re right !

It's a strange situation. Chicagoans are actually interested in this Bear Team.There's optimism for the way they played the last couple of games - against mediocre teams. Clearly we're out of the running for anything important. But you wouldn't know it by the level of enthusiasm. Maybe being mediocre relieves the pressure of caring too much for the team. There's a sense of week-to-week entertainment. If they play well I'll watch the game (while playing a game on my phone). If they look lousy I'll turn on the Golf Channel or something.
But the mighty football prognosticators are saying a loss for either team means the end-of-the-season for them.
Whatever.

Hhhhm. I thought his guitarwork was good. Or at least effective. He's a singer/songwriter guy. The guitar is a platform for the voice. I certainly lean that way in my playing style and preference. I will say the repetitive nature of the strumming was a little monotonous by itself. But it is just a rhythmic platform for his plaintive voice.

To millrings's point, I heard an interview on NPR a couple days ago. All Things Considered, I think. And the interviewer was interviewing the head of the PLO, (I think. It was a West Bank official for sure). And the Palestinian went on about the treatment that the Palestinians have under Israelie rule. His concerns are real. But I was waiting for the interviewer to ask if the Palestinian condemned or supported the Hamas attack.
. . . , But the question never came.

I’m actually considering doing a light edge burst on the 1978 Yammy FG335 I just bought.

In Aaron Short's review video above he shows that with heavy strumming the thing quacks out like a normal UST piezo. That would not work for me. No, it wouldn’t. But of course the pickup he’s demonstrating is no longer made. So, did you get one? Could be nice.

Every body style has it's sonic characteristics. I could never warm up to the Larry L sound when I picked one up. They sounded great when others played them. But in my hands they seemed a little "off"
