About Me

edit

I'm a graduate of Oklahoma State University with a Journalism BA and a minor in Japanese.

So far the best job I have gotten out of this is overnight restock at Wal-Mart.

Now I'm writing part time for Nukezilla and the Choctaw Times. You may note that this newspaper is so small it doesn't even have its own website.

I thought it was a good time to revive my C-Blog, so here I am.

Pro tip for all Guitar Hero/Rock Band Players

Go to Lowes:

They are these hooks with the rubber U shape you can see and the back is just a big screw you twist into your wall (so watch out for wall studs, electrical lines, lease agreements, etc.). They cost about $1 a piece and take about two minutes to install.

I put up several a few months back and they're working great.

Now if only I could find a cheap, classy way to store the drums...

Pretty cool, but do you have the wires and guitar straps just dangling down the wall?

I do this with my real guitars, and use my old floor stands I had those in for my fake instruments. Those hooks do work really well.

Huh, not a bad idea. Thanks for the tip.

What do you suggest I do with my drums? Ceiling perhaps?

Also, is your name an Idiocracy reference?

SWE3tMadness

I would do this if my landlord (see: Parents) wouldn't kill me for putting holes in the drywall. >.>

Very nice If i had known this i would have used these instead of nails, granted the nails wok nicely because they are about as thin as the guitar strap hook things and rest in the slot.

I made a post last year showing how my wife set up my GH/RB gear on our living room wall. She used Hercules Hooks she bought at Target.

sorry for not resizing my photo.

A few things:

1. Yes, it's an Idiocracy reference (I just need to make that more clear in my profile)

2. Normally the cords are rolled up a little and strung over the guitars themselves

3. I didn't see your post. Could you either link me to it or make one showing how exactly the drum thing was accomplished?

LostCrichton

Sure, I'll take some new pictures for you.

looking for gucci handbags on sale? One way on how to spot knock-off gucci handbags is to expect the best. There is a reason discount gucci handbags costs one thousand dollars. The leather should be of the great quality and made of one piece, the liner should be supreme and lie within the handbag perfectly. Seams will be hand stitched with small flat stitching that is neither frayed nor glued down. knockoff gucci handbag will cut any and all of these corners.
