Bought another Kindle book today. BookBub emails me a list of 5~6 books on sale at Kindle every day, mostly $1.99. Eventually read at least the first part of each, the most well-written read all the way through.

Common sense ways to lose and keep off weight are eat right and light and get lots of exercise. Main exercise is walking, do 1~2 miles most days. Over career worked as a salesman in the steelmaking, fasteners, and auto manufacturing industries, lots of travel in U.S., Canada, Mexico, and Japan. Japan. Over the years have visited every U.S. city with a major league, MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL, sports team except Sacramento, have gotten as close as Travis Air Force Base. Often traveled on Sundays, much time on the road so could not eat right and get enough exercise so got heavy, up to 200 lbs.

Yesterday brought my 19 guitars up from basement storage, maybe will start with my Fender Stratocaster.

This song has pull-offs, hammer-ons, bends, open notes, everything.
