Now, there’s a whole industry devoted to doing that to perfectly good, brand new guitars. Fretboard wear in unlikely places, belt buckle rash, and fake forearm wear. The worst are the ones coming out of factory custom shops. All of that fake wear is plugged into a cnc machine so that each guitar has the exact same damage. They charge a hefty premium for it, too. They call it “relicing, and people who could achieve the same results by tossing their guitar down the driveway snap them up. This makes them look like they’ve paid their dues in the blues clubs down at the crossroads.

I remember when it was fashionable (‘70s?) when people (Mom) did “antiquing”. It involved lightly beating wood furniture with chains ~ “distressing”, putting on a few layers of paint, and partially wiping it off.

Rust as a styling choice has become a thing on antique vehicles too. "Customizers" call it "patina". I find myself mentally yelling at the computer: "Its RUST you dummies!" gerg.gif:D

No foolin! That’s me.🤪
Back in high school, when takin a selfie meant going to the drugstore, closing the curtain and dropping a quarter in the machine. I can’t find the ones with my girlfriend hanging all over me!

You were watching the grandkids, and playing with a pocket knife, not really watching bluey, right? Right?

Oh, I believe it's you! I was having a problem seeing a Grey beard on that youthful face! I remember taking selfies in the photo booth too. I think mine are all lost to the sands of time though!

We'll..... Yes yes, I was chicken eyeing and coon fingering my Coffin Jack! That's my story and I'm sticking to it! :D ;)
 
Well, I've got my jeans on ready for the day but haven't loaded my pockets yet. These four are on my desk this morning so, I'll be carrying one of them - most likely the Sowbelly. Gotta take the six pills pictured above the knives. I'll be taking those probably, forever every morning and three other kind every night forever. Ain't life grand.:rolleyes:

Because of today's date, I can't help reading your Daily Affirmation calendar with a sarcastic tone. 🤔 😂

Today's carry, no joke. I've got a project in mind.

Don't worry, it took me a little while to get the joke for today. BTW, I love your prehistoric find and am excited to see how your project ends up.
