Guess my picking and pedal building among other important things will take a back seat for a few months. I tore my bicep yesterday moving a TV. Dominant arm. Heard it and felt it. Surgery time :evil:

It is what it is and I'll push forward with no callus on my fingers in 2 months.

Dang, John, I’m really sorry to hear that. That’s got to feel like a real loss. What will you do to fill the time?

I've got some back issues of Vintage Guitar and 3 books to read, Randy Bachman's, Brian Johnson's and of all things The Heroin Diaries. I'm not a Motley Crew fan but I figured the book would be quite the read.

Then I don't know. I can't strip wire as it's my dominant arm otherwise I'd build some more.

Had to cancel a seminar/vacation type trip Sunday in Charleston. I was looking forward to a little historical culture. Lord knows I need it :lol: I know there are people much worse off but dang what a PITA nonetheless.

Use all that Derek Trucks pedal tech money and buy some of this! :mrgreen:

In any case, it sounds like a definite PITA. Hopefully you can "turn it into a feature" (one of my mottos) of your life for a while. We're here for ya when you get stir crazy.

That really sucks! Sorry you missed the trip to Charleston. This is the best time of year to go there. Any closer to Summer and it is like being on the surface of the sun down there! :shock:

I hear you. I went to Savannah in July once. It was a near death experience.

Found a way to cut wire without activating the bicep :mrgreen: Where there is a will there is a way.

Until Thur when surgery happens. Ugh.

75" flat screen. The issue was my stupidity. the angle I had put all the weight on the tendon to lift it and basically none of the muscle. Riiiip.
