To further my point.

I don't understand your point.

Also you have a goat shaped uterus.

Those are the symbols for the 3 projects Maynard James Keenan is a part of.

You really have to understand the point of the 3 projects.

Tool is meant to be a band that contends with topics deeply intellectual or from an intellectual perspective for the most part.

APC is similar but deals with things from a more emotional rather then intellectual perspective.

Pusifer was simply an artistic outlet for MJK that he couldn't pursue with either of the other bands. It's mostly meant to be more tongue in cheek type of entertainment. There are some serious songs, but a lot of them are qwerky, comprised of sexual innuendos or serious subjects tackled from a very non-serious perspective. For those that don't know, MJK also likes to perform stand-up comedy...Pusifer is his outlet for "that side" of his musical artisanship. One of my favorite songs is Humbling River from Pusifer...it's one of the more serious songs but wouldn't have fit the Tool/APC genre.

I'm a HUGE MJK a fan. IMO he's one of the best, unique and most interesting musical minds the world has known. Admittedly not all of his projects are going to be everyone's cup of tea...but I think it's easier to "get" if you understand what he's going for in each individual project. He wasn't looking to rival Tool with Pusifer....two completely different outlets serving two completely different purposes for him artistically. They weren't meant to be similar to even in the same genre. Same with APC.

What he said...

I've been really loving these guys. Maybe it just fits for Halloween or something.

Not hot enough, too fast.

Yep,the first thing I welded was 30 gauge steel right before this, so my pace/heat was low since I kept on blowing through it lol.

I was thinking spacing too far away and wire speed a touch too high.

The replacement Jeep:

2.7 Mercedes diesel, 5-speed Mercedes Auto, all the bells and whistles :) 

 

Ignore the sports rake, I bought it with 2" spacers all around and only had time to remove them from the front, so I can change all the tie-rods and do an alignment.

Punk kid smashed in the doors on the 550 just days after I got her back from BMW touching up some paint and a final 50k service.

She has been in the shop all last week as of Monday.

Being self-employed is nice... If I show up I make money, if not then I don't.

You also make the most of the days you aren't there.

J

True statement J.

 

Most ppl laugh that I even call what i do a job. 

 

On another note, I had a vision you would become a stand up comic. lol

Lol maybe I'll go to an open mike night and give it a shot.

J

No kidding J. You are a natural at making people laugh.

My secret to making six figures is find a hobby you enjoy... and exploit that shit.

Let's see how this goes. I am not afraid to be in front of a crowd, nor to make a fool of myself self or others.
