Tenor #1: Neck, Part III
16 Apr, 2006
I had done a fair amount of shaping on the neck since the last photo, and I decided it was time to shape the peghead before continuing.

Porch Picking

It was mild enough this weekend to reclaim the porch, somewhat.
Not quite mild enough to get any picking done, though.

A Two-Pronged Approach

Well, for all of my bluster a week and a half ago, I haven't really gotten on track with my three-finger banjo practice. I've been playing almost every day, but still in a fairly unfocused manner.
Remember Me?
7 Apr, 2006
A humble suggestion to the developers of pretty much every damn web application I've ever used:
If you're going to include a "Remember Me" checkbox next to the login screen, make it actually remember me. If you're not going to do that, then leave it off altogether, or at least qualify it to read, "Remember Me for 15 minutes, after which I'll have to log in again anyway."
Flickr gets it right.

So I signed up for a MySpace account, which can be found at
http://myspace.com/chaseinstruments
I don't spend a lot of time there, but plenty of other people do. MySpace seems to have become the lingua franca for musicians showcasing their music online. The animated banner ads and excruciatingly slow response over dial-up makes me want to gouge my eyes out, but there is definitely something to be said for being able to say
"Listen to my stuff at myspace.com/chaseinstruments"
instead of
working copy path ‘foo’ does not exist in repository.

Once in a while Subversion will come back at you with a strange error like the "working copy path does not exist in repository" one I was just stuck on for half an hour.
In most cases, this one included, the problem can be alleviated by wiping out the offending directory in your working copy and re-updating. Of course, if you've got changes you're trying to commit you'll want to back those up somewhere so you can re-edit the file(s) in question once you check them back out.
