    At least this is what the guys selling them want you to believe... Too bad that's not the case.

    While it's true Hendrix bought a BigMuff from a store in NYC right before he died there is no verification it was ever used. All the photographic "proof" shows a similar sized box but it only had two knobs and was likely marketed by Guild. BigMuff has three knobs. The Russian version came out after Jimi died... It is the better sounding unit though, Sovtek had to make some parts substitutions to the circuit because they couldn't get the specified parts and used whatever they could find.

    Doesn't mean it's not a cool vintage pedal, but it's not something Hendrix used... Those would mostly be custom built "Fuzz Face" circuits.

    people who have reasons to be bitter will say anything,
    if they were actually going to do something,
    they'd most likely just do it.

    occasionally though they are talking themselves up to have the courage to do something dumb they know they're going to regret,
    no matter how angry they are, or how valid or otherwise their reason to be.

    then of course there are always idiots who think its a laugh to scare people that way
    and yes, they can then sometimes, especially if they're on something,
    even if they hadn't started out intending to.

    this is why its a problem to call anything good that wishes to be feared

    Still no Baby Grayson.

    I'm catching up my laundry and will pack a little bag to stay over with my daughter whenever she needs me.

    I'm trying to push my Halloween stuff out the door with on-line sales; and I may have 20 new things I've sourced that have to be cleaned, photographed, and listed.

    Nothing going on here...

    Your writing style is pretty clear. As a non native english speaker I notice. I'm not busy with styles on here, only with wether people write and explain themselves in an easy to understand way :p
    What about mine?? I know my use of / can break up the flow, but it is of course to clarify the meaning!

    I took the last Prednisone in the pack this morning.

    I'll be glad to not feel like chewing nails.

    I have been so fatigued lately. Starting to worry because it's just constant and I've never felt quite like this. I'm super stubborn about going to the doctor but I guess I'll go.

    Are you eating OK? Sleeping OK? Go see the doctor, women are supposed to be more sensible about these things than men.

    if I had to guess I would say your body is relaxing because of all the superheat you had last couple of weeks and it's nice and cool now and it's taking a rest.

    I am not a sensible woman when it comes to this sort of thing lol. I will try every homeopathic remedy under the sun before I go to the doctor
    Speaking of, I bought an accupressure mat today. It isnt helping the fatigue but it does help my back, 10/10 recommend

    Maybe, the changing of the seasons does get to me sometimes. I hope it's something simple like that

    I hope she meant holistic.

    Homeopathic medications are diluted to such an extent that at the 30X solution, your odds of finding a molecule of the solution in the medication dose are around the odds of finding a basketball in the solar system.

    Oh I guess homeopathic was the wrong word..I dont use homeopathic products, I know that stuff is all snake oil
    I guess naturopathic is the word? Like I'll eat a bunch of garlic for days to knock out a sinus infection before I break down and go to the doctor for antibiotics. Or tea tree and almond oil for an ear infection (which really does work amazingly well).
    Yoga and accupuncture mats for a shoulder / back injury rather than surgery lol. Things like that

    Actually:

    Homeopathy - RationalWiki

    Dilution advocated by Hahnemann for most purposes; patient would need to consume 10^41 pills (a billion times the mass of the Earth), or 10^34 gallons of liquid remedy (100 billion times the volume of the Earth) to consume a single molecule of the original substance
