There were either 3 or 4 new wildfires that started over the weekend here. It's freaking ridiculous.

I wonder if the action on my Takamine is shimmed?

Nope. I'm stuck with the high action on it. Fucking cheap acoustic-electrics. I guess I shouldn't skimp on spending money when it comes to acoustic guitars.Originally Posted by DemonGeminiX

What the fuck is it with kids turning people you liked into narcissistic shitbags?
Went away for a wedding this weekend, stayed with 5 other couples. So a dozen of us crammed into this little rancher Air BNB rental on a small island. I love this group of friends, all my wife's pals from med school. Only one has a kid. They brought it, despite their mom offering to babysit for the weekend because "everyone will want to see the baby"... despite knowing that this crew only hangs out all together once a year and would be up until the wee hours catching up - not a great place for a toddler. The kid was well behaves, but the couple took the place over. Kid's shit EVERYWHERE, making a total mess. The real issue was that the first morning they're up at 6am in the living room talking at full volume, playing music on the speakers, acting like they own the place as we sleep off a hangover. This place was ancient, had paper thin walls so everyone was awake as a result.
Day 2 is the day of the wedding... the fucking GRANDMA shows up on the island?! We didn't know this, she's here to 'babysit' and arrives while we're day-drinking which was just kind of weird. They still bring the kid to the wedding and it cries during the ceremony. We had to nudge them to get the kid out of there because it was embarrassing, and the bride didn't even want kids there. The mom babysits after the ceremony so at least we got a few hours of them being normal, but we were up celebrating until 4am, again in the morning THREE GENERATIONS of this dicks are up at 530am doing the same shit as the day before. Talking full volume, crashing around. The kid was quiet and really sweet, it was the couple and their mom who woke the entire house up two days in a row and pissed us all off. Everyone's too scared of the girl to say anything unfortunately (she's got a mean side), so we just let it slide and thankfully they'd left for the ferry by the time we got up a few hours later.
Just absolute narcissism, having a chance to leave the kid at home or get their own place, and instead they bringing it and their mom to our weekend getaway, half ruining the mini-vacation for all of us. Oh she also brought the kid to a wedding shower a few months back so I shouldn't even be surprised
On top of that, the kid is over 2 years old and asks for the mom's boobs still... all the time... I don't know much about kids but that seemed weird.
Fuck them, they're cut from the friend groupI hope if I ever have a kid I don't become a brain-dead asshole who thinks that kind of intrusion on friends without children having a fun weekend is even half acceptable.

So I'm at the laundromat today. I spy with my eye, a fucking perfect ass. I mean perfect. Taught, bubble, petite... to die for. She crawled into the dryer to retrieve clothes in yoga pants perfection. I was sweating and wanted to knock one out right then and there.
Then she turns around... high school soccer tshirt. Holy hell. That is not reasonable.

I got out of work 45 minutes before my boat ride back to "home" island. Spent it watching a couple toned, tanned girls in micro bikini's paddle boarding around the bay. Also today a girl riding on the back of a golf cart decided to give me a little secret show as I was following them waiting for an opportunity to pass.
I already looked for them. No go.

What's the bridge material? Sand it down. I did on my yamaha. Way better now.
I'm no good with that stuff. I'd end up screwing it up.

It's really easy. Did mine in about 5 mins, not including taking strings off and on. I used a credit card to make a pencil line around base of saddle, then just sanded gently with 500 grits sandpaper. I put sandpaper on a flat surface, and rubbed the saddle to lines. Hardest part was keeping saddle straight while sanding. I did mess up the original plastic saddle, but got a free bones addled from a local music store. Still want to put a bone nut on the yamaha. That may be above my skills though, as getting the slots right takes tools I don't have.
It's been so dead around here lately
