OT 14: No Luck for Old Men

[Johnny_P]

Oh! Opportunity to showcase the world class gym! I should snap some after work. You all will be appalled. Actually IDK I haven't been up there in like 5 years.

In4 JP when he actually finds a world class gym and learns that all the company's money is being sank into it instead of cleaning mold and fixing roofs.

We actually have a secret squirrel way of paying for gym equipment. Scrap metal kickbacks go to the gym account

Doesn't mean it's any good doe

Funny, I've almost no interest in the history around here. A bunch of rednecks were willing to fight to the death to keep their slaves?

Thing is, everything I read about in school happened out there. NOTHING of significance to this country's history happened out here that couldn't have happened elsewhere.

I guess. I simply have no interest in 'murican history besides stuff like the Tesla/Edison days and World's Fair type innovations. Most things I learned about in school happened in Europe, but I did take French and art and European history whenever I had choices to skip the Manifest Destiny garbage.

If you don’t like this country just MOVE!

Visit Philly sometime. It all started here, bruv.

Been there. I lived on Naval Air Station Patuxent River for 4 years growing up. Didn't like it then, don't think I'll like it now. Just like SF, and NYC, I hate filthy congested places and that's about all I remember of the place other than seeing the Liberty Bell, Independence Hall and the like..

After KY moves to Germany I'll be hitting him up for jobs.

That would be the reason to come. It's pretty cool standing in Independence Hall at the same place where the declaration was signed 242 years ago.

Otherwise yeah it's just like any other congested city.

Boston was pretty IMO.

We actually have a trip in our book of trips to do "one day" (my wife loves to make itineraries for this stuff) to hit up Philly, D.C. and Boston, then grab a cruise from there up to Canada that takes about a week, then fly to the west coast of Canada for a few days, then drive back down the coast. Just way too much "city" for me when I'd prefer to get a house on a lake and drive around and see countryside.

I hear that. When I went to Seattle I spent hardly any time in the city itself and went to the mountains instead. Some of my friends were asking if I found any good restaurants and I honestly don't give a damn because there are good restaurants here.

That sounds like a 5/7 way to do a trip.

Yeah, he 5 days I spent in Tennessee earlier this year were awesome. So much history and things to see. You can't throw a rock without hitting a battleground or other historic place. I could probably spend a month there sightseeing and never be bored.

Funny, I've almost no interest in the history around here. A bunch of rednecks were willing to fight to the death to keep their slaves?

"Not about slavery but States rights!!!!"

Yeah, ok. States right to do what?

[wap]

That doesn't sound particularly entertaining.

Ended up being kinda painless. However the .gov rules on this make no logical sense... imagine that.

What they want without interference from the Feds.

To declare their right as sovereign states to own slaves, duh.

Like bomb the US Army?

That's probably going to be an issue

[Johnny_P]

Get a road bike. I’ll show you my leg day workout

Not climbing Monster?

Hah.
Come to philly and do a horse track with me.

There are nice rural places to drive around near the DC area, roughly 45 mins from the city. Especially route 29 south of i66 that takes it to Charlottesville. Lots of vineries around there too.

Can't imagine having fun isn't your cup of tea.

The band is really on fire.

So many new people on the scene all saying the same thing "I had no idea anything like this even existed. This is amazing! Never experienced anything like it"

Employees as all the venues were getting turned out. Check out this beer vendor losing his shit to the music and jamming out...



After while his beers kinda disappeared lol

And then this young duder had his life changed at MPP



Sorry guys... I'm still on a high from it all... I may be acting like this for a few more days

Glad you had such a good time, I just don’t like them anymore. Something about Trey’s solo style...I just can’t dig it. I used to, just don’t anymore.

As much as it varies show to show to my ears, it's changed a bit over the last two years. His event with the Dead had an effect on him and his solo tours are all about experimenting with new gear/sounds. It's wild. Not like machine gun trey of '94 at all anymore... more Gilmore-esque by the day.

Or maybe you say that because you prefer old school more? Not sure. Whatevs. Sounds like your mind is already made up lol

I've never knowingly listened to a Phish song.. the name makes me think of some weird reggae music, which definitely is not up my alley at this point in time.

Need to ask her about this again. She isn't a dreamer like me. She typically acts on things once she makes a decision.

I'll be your live-in nanny over there if I need to until I get a real job.
