Stress at work, stress at home, and it's making me have stress related stomach problems. I need another job.

Found this today and thought it was pretty cool info on Keith's guitar that he calls Clarence:


Mark Kendrick - Fender

USA

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You know... I've been watchin' the Keith Urban threads for quite some time. The guitar Keith plays, is a 1988 C/S, 40th anniversary Telecaster. It has an ash back with a figured maple top. The guitar also has a "swimming pool" route. Sometime after Keith recieved the guitar from our Nashville A/R office, he decided to put another pickup in it with a 5 way switch. In 1999, Keith decided to go back to the original wiring configuration. The middle pickup was removed and later the neck pickup, but there wasn't another pickguard, in the same material (ivoroid) to replace it. So the pickguard(with 2 pickups routes)remains intact. There is kind of a cool factor in that. It gave the guitar it's own personality. The pickup in the bridge, was a Texas Special Tele. I hope that clears things up a bit.

What I do is so specialized that it's NOT easy to find jobs, especially close to home. I really don't want to give up this job unless I can find something that's a commutable distance. My job is also how I get my health insurance and my retirement, so I want to stay with the state. But, believe me, I'm filling out applications and sending them to every district around and keeping watch on the job openings list.
