Here's a secret snack idea. Go buy a small milkshake at Sonic and rush it home. Previously you softened a big blob of cream cheese and folded in a tablespoon of sugar then chilled it.

Open the shake and throw out the whipped crap. Swirl in the cream cheese yumyum then throw it back in the freezer and forget about it until tomorrow.

It's all about textures and drive-thru haute cuicui.

We have a saying around here but it doesn't type well.

Suddenly I need chicken fingers.

You show me a chicken with fingers and I'll show you a buffalo with wings!

Burned screens. Lifted traces. The tube board is a mess. Deformed diodes. Must have been a fire.

I replaced the tiny exploded 1w 470s with 5w and I will likely lift the diodes over the tubes, even though they both read as expected. Not enough room there. None.

Hawt Rawd Devil. Fender makes cell phones for guitars but less dependable than android on G1. (hahaha ooof)

Scared to put power on it. Freaking scared. Everything reads ok. Dunno about the tubes. I bet the thing was super over biased. The trimmer is set right in the middle.. looks like the owner tried to make it appear as if he hadn't been in there before me.
