Used Can't Be Good

All my life I have had this mentality that used was no good. So I would go without things forever till I could get the funds to buy it new but did I stop there? No, I didn't. Not only did I want new but it had to be the best. Hence I have shortened my life in a sense and here's how.

I would use this excuse of go big or go home. Well I never got anywhere. This mentality runs through all my decision making in more ways than one. If I didn't feel I could commit all the way I just didn't do it and that is one of reasons I am probably behind everyone all the time. One good example is that I have always wanted my own sounds system. Well doubt you have looked up the price one quality speaker box but they rage from 1,000 to 6,000 a piece and you need several of them to do a show. Then on top of that you need all the cabling, mics, mic stands, power cords, amps if the speakers are not self powered , distro , consoles and the list goes on.

I never really came to the conclusion till about a year ago when I started to hang out with a certain group of wheelers and dealers. Then on top of that I got hooked on American Pickers. Now I find myself constantly looking at free to cheap stuff on Craigslist, ebay, and dumpsters.

So now hopefully I can start to move on to bigger and better things thanks to some good friends and American Pickers.

Happy Pickin

I Built The Most Secure State of The Art Walls.

I have built walls. Well whoopty do. Your right in saying nothing new here. The thing is these walls don't let people in. I have been doing this my whole life. If you crossed me the wrong way or I just have a sick sense about you I have built a wall between you and me and you probably don't even know it. Sorry I have done this but it's true. I don't trust you. Why well I have my reasons but as time goes on and I grow up I slowly and I mean Slowly weaken these walls. It basically boils down to me not wanting to get taken advantage of or hurt. So please forgive me  but don't expect these walls to come down all at one time. They need to be taken down slowly so know one gets hurt.

New Year Resolutions

New Year Resoulutions is something that I have secretly made fun of. One reason is I know hardly anyone keeps up with them. Two they spend a bunch of money at first and by spring the treadmill is in a garage sale or they are canceling their gym membership. You get the point.
So this year I am going to make some New Life Resolutions. There are things in my life that I want to be better at but they are things that will be a life of contantly doing. The list, well that is to long to write and it is an on going one. Although I will tell you a couple of them because they are things I would like to see change soon. VERY SOON. One is for my work to grow and the second is to find a bigger home and sell our current one.
So what are your New Life Resolutions?
