[nilesfunnies] Fw: Variation on theme.

Variation on theme.
I think my wife is cheating on me. I am a working musician and, as
you would expect, travel a lot. I have been noticing strange things
happening when I get home. Her mobile phone rings and she steps outside
to answer it, or she says, "I'll call you back later." When I ask her
who called she gets evasive. Sometimes she goes out with friends but
comes home late,getting dropped off around the corner and walking the
rest of the way. I once picked up the extension while she was on the
phone and she got very angry.

A friend of mine plays bass in another band. He told me that my wife and
some guy have been to his gigs. He wanted to borrow my bass amp. That's
when I got the idea to find out for myself what was really happening. I
said "sure, you can use my amp but I want to hide behind it at the gig
and see if she comes into the venue and who she comes in with." He agreed.

Saturday night came and I slipped behind my Ampeg SVT 8 x 10 rig to
get a good view. I could feel the heat coming off the back of the
amp. It was at that moment, crouching down behind the amp, that I
noticed one of the valves was not glowing as bright as the others. Is
this something I can fix myself or do I need to take it to a technician?

Thanks
