My wife made me go out to garage sales last weekend. Usually this is just shear torture but this weekend it was different. This one house was having a massive sale, like an estate sale but without being overpriced. We got to this one early, which was good. As I wandered about I saw this little guitar without any strings and I had to get closer look.
Upon closer investigation it turned out to be a Fender Musicmaster guitar. It was covered with grime and some rust but the price tag was a mere $75. I grabbed it and paid for it right away. After a little investigation I figured out that this guitar was from 1964 and was probably worth at least $1000 if not more. How cool is that! Now I’ve got to decide if I sell it or not. Decisions decisions.

One of the things that I hate about watching, or trying to watch the t.v. is that all of the reality shows are now starting to show reruns. I guess the writers and producers have run out of original ideas on what reality television shows to make.
I hate reality tv plain and simple. When “reality” tv first started out it was cool. It seemed, well, real! There was a certain feeling about it that it was real. Now it just seems rehearsed, like every move is orchestrated for dramatic feelings for the tv crowd to suck them into the plot, and scam.
Take American Idol for instance. Have you watched that show? I can’t tell if it’s fake or not, some of it sure is doctored for dramatic effect. Like Asia’h Epperson. Did her dad really die and she went ahead and did her audition? Did she miss the funeral? Who knows!
What about Survivor? Have you seen MTv lately? What happened to actually showing music videos?
Man, I hate reality tv..enough about that rambling before I blow a gasket! Now, where the hell’s my remote…
