Why Literacy, Is Important

jazzy boy- i second that... wish that i could just go to the store and pick up alexandre caetano cd...lol...

dck- had my wisdom teeth out this morning... and everything seems to be going fine... only took twenty minutes and the bleeding has stopped on all but one... i would definitely recommend taking the painkillers as soon as you are able to get some food in your stomach though... sick of pudding and ice cream already though... think i might make a run to kfc for some mashed potatoes (with no gravy... yuck...lol...) and try a biscuit... when do you get yours out?

alexandre caetano- i hope all is well with your friends in madrid... thats so horrible, breaks my heart...

austin- in your sociology of sports class did you talk about mondays hit on moore from vartuzzi? what did you guys think?

seems to be a bit slower in here the last couple of days... everyone in Satchland doing ok? Hope you all have a good night...

JS_JS, Hello how are you.

To answer your question, yes I am a Christain. Glad to here that you and Joeman are brothers in Christ. I do have a few guns, and a few guitars. I enjoy hunting, and playing my axes. My "nick" actually is the name of a book Ted Nugent wrote. I was here years ago under the "nick" of MARANATHA, which means the LORD cometh. I play in a classic rock band, mostly 70's and 80's stuff a few newer tunes also. I started playing in 1981, the year I graduated High School. I guess that makes me old for some here. I am a converted drummer. When I first heard Eddie that was it for me. I did not know who Joe was until around 1992. I have seen him twice from about 6 feet away, at the House of Blues in New Orleans. The wife and I got there early for that spot. I am waiting for him to return, hopfully I will get to meet him this time. I did shake his hand as he left the stage after the last show I saw. He is my favorite player, and I say that because I do not fill there is any human standard that can judge who the best is. So I believe you can only truly say who your favorite is at any given momment.

GODGUNSGUITARS me and JS_JS are christians and tote the banner proudly. Anyway I know a girl at my school who's dad does just what you do! WOW! anyway Yea we've got a few other christians on here(this including The Farting Gnome I believe). L8erz,

GODSGUNSGUITARS: I'm like (Christian:Catholic) you minus the guns and the wife haha! I remember a quote from Nuge that went "if God didn't want us to eat animals he wouldn't have made them out of meat." Nuge is full of the wisdom haha!

Mick: there's only half a million of us here. Lots of unsettled areas. A third of the island is protected. VERY mountainous and picturesque. We have the cleanest air in the world. Here's a good map for you to get some idea of the look of it. Check out Cradle Mountain - beautiful! I live in the city Launceston ("lon sess tn" - not "lorn sess tn" as the original English town) in the north. My family lives in Penguin in the NW (actually it's top centre, but compared to most people in the state it's NW). I lived there during my school years.

Get a good perspective of the size compared to the rest of the country and the current times. Australia is roughly the size of USA (a bit smaller).

Sammy Andrews : I'm in Blacksburg, about 1.75 hrs or so north of you. A very good friend of mine who is a world class fantasy artist lives down in Bristol.....he has a studio in Abingdon, and I come down to visit him from time to time.

UF Dean, thanks for thinking of me :) Actually we decided on an Ibanez GSR200 in transparent blue. Go to www.musiciansfriend.com and put in the number 519713 in the search thingy. That should bring up the bass we picked. Please let me know what you think.

Graham & Austin, read above message.

Julie, hope you're feeling better soon. ouch!

Bil, hang tough bro!

[posh Enlish accent] I say - Shawn Lane is rather a good guitar player, what! [/posh English accent]

But seriously, ignoring all boundaries of taste, he is so fast it's unreal!!!! But there's a lot more to his playing than just that. Or rather there was...

R.I.P. Shawn Lane.

Tell me a place where I can pick up alexandre's cd, i would love to!

Is there love on earth. There is Love and there is hate. Taking you guys as an example, and a lot of others I met in my life...I believe there is love on earth. My family is the best example I am familiar with. We as humans tend to turn hostile towards things we cannot understand. If we understood everything perfect, we would be a lot more empathetic.

Michael Hedges was quite talented.

Australia?

Just wondering if Joe and the crew will be touring anytime soon in Australia.... (QLD namely...;))....thanks.

Cheers.

Has anyone here played any of Sid Meier's Civilization games? I love 'em... I spent several hours tonight playing Civilization II. I did the WWII sim twice... I conquered Europe and most of Russia as Hitler, and then I beat Hitler in a nuclear war as Churchill. Fun stuff... ;-)

JS JS - The Archive Vault is located in the drop-down menu.

Okay, I read your other post...you're sick of ice cream already? You suck! What about Jello? Have you had any of that? Do you like macaroni and cheese?

I had a midterm in my sociology of sports class today, so we didn't get to talk about the hockey hit. I'll bring it up on Tuesday though...

I want the Almost Famous director's cut. I've been dying to see the Stairway To Heaven scene...haha. It's so cool how Cameron Crowe put it in the bonus features...
