Great to hear from you MATT!! Keep the melodies coming bro'!!

Psycho Monkey: You hit it right on the nail about Yngwie!! BTW, JOE never refers to himself as a guitar hero....We all know that, and Yngwie is just a sad story of "WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN"!!!!!!! lol....

Peace all, /\/\ike....In a /\/\ind Stor/\/\ Revolution!!

Just a small comment to all af you americans. First of all; 9/11 was a tragedy for America and for the rest of the western countries (including Norway where I live). But this happened for a reason. I'll admit that the reason is not good enough to kill thousands of people, but still there's no denying the fact that many countries suffer as a direct or semi-direct consequence of the life you americans (and us norwegians) lead. In Africa more people are dying from hunger and epidemics every week than was killed in New York on 9/11. This is why I react to messages in this forum talking about humanity and peace.

My point is, for the first time the battlefield has been brought to USA instead of USA bringing the battlefield to some other, poorer, part of the world.

For the Afghans, or indeed any other country that experiences loss of innocent people, their tragedy is just as big as yours. However they do not have the worlds biggest warmachine at their disposal.

I'm just hoping people will try and get the bigger picture in the world.

Foradun - ah that explains that one then.

On Yngwie Malmsteem, if he said that about Joe he can shove himself up his own bottom. My son came home with a Yngwie CD the other day, the guy that gave it to him didn't like it, we didn't like it, tried to give it away at work - no one at work likes it, CD is now in the trash.

Dragonchild - buy them all.

Naty - don't you drink any alcohol at all, I quite like Cherry Brandy and lemonade, trouble is it tastes like pop so you drink more of it, makes walking about a bit difficult.

Whojack - hope you get better soon.

JOE we are missing you here on T2J. Send us a message please.

I watched our flag go up today with a teardrop in my eye. It only went up halfway, and I just stood there and cried. Tears of sadness, sorrow, and pain flowed slowly down my cheek. I cried for the families left behind and the answers that they now seek. It's been hard this past year to mend our broken hearts. To put the pieces back together, and make a brand new start. You thought that you would break our spirit, with your cowardly attack. All you did was piss us off, and now we're fighting back. It wasn't hard to sucker punch America that day. It doesn't matter where you run, you will not get away. Now that we know who you are and what we have to do, You may as well kiss your a@@ goodbye, because we're coming after you. To those out there who wish us harm and want to do us wrong. You better give it a second thought, because America is strong. We have pride, faith, and strength of will and we won't run from a fight. We will meet you on the battlefield, and destroy you with all our might. You claim God is on you side and you serve higher powers. Well, may God have mercy on your soul because your a@@ is ours! In your defeat we will prevail, and America will sing, GOD BLESS US ONE AND ALL AND LET FREEDOM FOREVER RING!!!!
