And to think I was about to pay $169 for a new pickup. I guess I probably owe Ryan a Coke or something.

When In-Laws Turn Cool
Last night at band practice, my mandolin pickup wasn’t working. My brother-in-law, Ryan, happened to be at my house and asked if he could take a look. He started taking apart something that I didn’t know could be taken apart, and then said, “Oh, this just came unsoldered. Let me grab my soldering iron from my truck.” Honestly? Who keeps a soldering iron in his truck? Ten seconds later, it was as good as new.

What an awesome BIL!! That's so handy that he hot only was able to identify the problem, but then just happened to have a a soldering iron in his truck!! I think a Coke is absolutely in order. : )
I wish I had a soldering iron. You can control the elements. What power.
I bet Thor has a soldering iron.
I just figured out who zippy is -- and that I'm related to her. And Leah just told me who BIL is. But who's Thor? Are we related, too?
Anyways, do you want to get together?
