I’m 67. Ex-Democrat—still progressive. #NOKINGS

Jeezus Christ the new quarter gives Washington Trump’s mug shot scowl. I hate everything.

Old Gerhard just found out about the Bluesky Block.

Bennie with one of three small tennis balls she loves to throw around.

Still no power. We’re decamped at a local motel with the puppy, who refuses to go to sleep.

Gusts to 70 fucking mph. Yikes.

#TeleTuesday My self-built partscaster made from a Fender neck (Chinese, Modern Player series) and a GFS body, pickups, and parts. The best Tele I’ve ever played and I’m never selling it.

The neck is from a pawnshop find that cost me $100. I sold the loaded body for $175, so the neck cost me -$75.

I can’t believe I didn’t see this one. (Algorithm fail.)

These are three of my favorite guitar models, so here are a couple Ibanez catalog pages from circa 1976:

While Gibson designed the Moderne back in 1958, I believe, along with the Explorer and Flying V, they were not the first to create a retail version of the guitar. Fujigen Gakki, a Japanese guitar maker, produced copies of all three back in 1974.

#trilobitetueday

Two fossils from the middle of Tennessee somewhere. Collected in 2005. The complete trilobite is about 1-1/2 inches long.

I see pictures of terriers and I’m convinced Bennie has a good percentage of one in her somewhere.

I’ve got leaf fossils from WA State, I believe something like 50 Ma old.

It confuses me because the information is wrong. Thanks Siri.

I was originally correct. A 1977 Canadian nickel was 99.9% nickel.

This just confuses me.

Are Canadian nickels still magnetic? I have one from 1977 that stuck itself to my watch charger. I think they were 100% Ni back then and thus magnetic, whereas US nickels were (and are) 75% copper and 25% nickel. Not enough nickel to attract the magnet.

And what about Canadian quarters?

Good morning!

King tide tonight. It will be a 17 foot swing from the low at 11 pm and the high at about 6 am. This is for a harbor near me.

Bennie says you got this.
December 4, 2025 at 6:12 PM
Mmmm.
