It wasn’t probably a very clever thing to go drinking last night after work and then stay up until after 6am drinking wine with Lou and then to go straight to college…then on to work again.

By the time I finished work I could hardly function.

 

My new toy

Ashton’s amazing Dualler guitar is undoubtedly one of the most versatile instruments on the market. It delivers a fantastic sound thanks to mahogany neck and body construction, while the spruce top adds extra tonal warmth.
Its smaller, thin body makes it so easy to handle. The smaller size also makes it the perfect travelling companion – leave some room in the backseat for it on your next road trip. The Dualler’s greatest feature, however, is given away in the name – it comes with dual piezo and magnetic pickups (and a built-in tuner!) for endless sonic possibilities and
a truly awesome blended sound when recording or performing.

- Spruce Top
- Mahogany Body
- Rosewood Fret Board
- Mahogany Neck
- Slim Body
- Die Cast Machine Heads
- Prener EQ System with Tuner
- XLR and Line Out
- Dual Pickup,
- Magnetic Sound Hole & Under Saddle Piezo

Thug Kim: Konnichiwa is Japanese. It’s insulting to Koreans.
Tom Ludlow: How am I supposed to tell if you can’t?
Thug Kim: Fuck that’s supposed to mean, white boy?
Tom Ludlow: It means you’ve got eyes like apostrophes, you dress white, talk black, and drive Jew. So how am I supposed to know what kind of zipper-head dog-munching dick you are if you don’t?

Tom Ludlow is a veteran LAPD cop who finds life difficult to navigate after the death of his wife. When evidence implicates him in the execution of a fellow officer, he is forced to go up against the cop culture he’s been a part of his entire career, ultimately leading him to question the loyalties of everyone around him.

I spent my second day in college catching up on my missed practicals. I was lucky it was just me and Min in the class, so our day was short but sweet.

I had to make a Chocolate Egg (you can see half in the picture) and some basic shapes like chocolate cigars and chocolate fans.

I got a new bag on the way home…I love Crumpler.
