I was playing my metro '69 this morning and in the middle of a Billy Gibbons solo the amp died. It blew the mians fuse. I had to leave for work so, didn't have time to pull it apart this morning. Now here I sit at work with my amp on my mind!!! What a bummer!!!!

Huh.....I sit at work thinking about amps all day when there's nothing wrong with any of mine. It's not so bad.

Well yeah, that's a given. But when problems arise and your gone for nine hours, the day seems like 90 hours, then when you start working on it 2 hours seems like 2 minutes, then you have to start the work day over again!!! Well, here I am sitting in front of the amp. Hopefully I'll get it finished before I go to bed.

Ha Ha,yeah, sometimes I look at the customers where I work, and all I see where thier face should be is red and blue layouts. I have visions of wire while I should be bearing down and working.

one time I dreamt ( is that a word?) the color code combination to a complicated switch I was working with.
