es gefaellt mir...

Well, I'm working now. Got my new guitar (the Telecaster pictured somewhere below). Worked on my guitar's setup until it was as good as it could get without having the frets dressed. Sold my amp. Changed some of the wiring on my new guitar (took the Neck Pickup out of the tone circuit). Bid on a new amp (Peavey Classic 30). Learned some German. Listening to a lot of Queen. Pink Floyd "Pulse" has just been released on DVD... haven't bought it yet... hmm...
I also got an EQ pedal, which I'm going to tear apart and put in my strat at christmas... maybe..
I think Fight Club is maybe a Christian movie. I watched it like 4 times in the past week or so. Tyler's message is not so different than Jesus really, just a bit different in execution. That might be an exaggeration, but the message of the movie certainly is in harmony with the teachings of Christ. Some may disagree with this, but the movie itself doesn't advocate the kind of violence and anarchy which it's main characters embrace. In fact the end of the movie deals with facing the consequences of a juvenile romance with nihilism, and shows that though it's characters are facing real problems, they have not found any real answers. The situation they are left with really compels me to Jesus all the more. It seems like he really had answers for these problems.
Anyway, notice that my skin isn't really good enough to have pictures take of me this close... and then have the saturation turned so high that every imperfection looks like a bright red spot. And boy, my lips look soooo red. Oh well, I'm still hot.
