Romantic 1st lines...and deadly 2nd ones
The most romantic first line
A local newspaper ran a competition asking for a rhyme with the most
romantic first line... but the least romantic second line. Here are
some of the entries they received.
I thought that I could love no other
Until, that is, I met your brother.
Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet, and so are you.
But the roses are wilting, the violets are dead, the sugar bowl's
empty and so is your head.
Of loving beauty you float with grace
If only you could hide your face
Kind, intelligent, loving and hot;
This describes everything you are not
I want to feel your sweet embrace
But don't take that paper bag off of your face
I love your smile, your face, and your eyes -
Damn, I'm good at telling lies!
My darling, my lover, my beautiful wife:
Marrying you screwed up my life
I see your face when I am dreaming.
That's why I always wake up screaming
My love, you take my breath away.
What have you stepped in to smell this way
My feelings for you no words can tell,
Except for maybe "go to hell"
What inspired this amorous rhyme?
Two parts vodka, one part lime

Joe,
Thank you for pouring out your soul in your music, you truly are the definition of chops! After playing the B3 on and off to follow a flying career, I am back in touch with my bad-self when listening to you play. I flew fighters in the military for over 20 years. My 5 year old son Joe plays his left handed Les Paul and has it in him. Gonna send him for lessons here in the Chicago area, any suggestions?
BTW, I know you were in the area at the Schaumburg, IL Tower records a few years back and missed you there. As I could here the Elk Grove, IL fests from my backyard, did you happen to play at a fest in Elk Grove, IL when you were in town?
Glad John Petrucci is going to be playing with you again G3 Tokyo DVD is one the best I've had the pleasure of seeing. How about Steve, will he be back?
Thank you in advance for your time,
When you get to Chicago, you and the band have an open invitation for pasta with the family
Peace,
Waffle Eater

Hi everyone, especially Joe!
I'm new to the site and very excited to see all that it offers. First off, I am a HUGE Joe fan. My absolute favorites are the Anthology CD Set and the San Francisco DVD, but my favorite album is Crystal Planet. I don't play guitar, I'm more of a singer, and a car builder, but I love music. And when I'm on a road trip, I need good music. Joe provides that effortlessly. Every time I listen I hear something new I never heard before, as it's because of that I never get tired of hearing it! Joe was in Milwaukee in 2004 and it was two weeks before the show I discovered Joe when my roommate played me the San Fran DVD. Of course, it was sold out and I missed the show. But this year Joe, if you come within 500 miles of Milwaukee, I'll be there!
Waiting eagerly for the tour list,
OldSkoolGP

"I just found out that James' dad passed away last night. Harsh...
My condolences to your friend, the day after we got our A' Level results one of my friends lost his mom really unexpectedly, I didn't know what to say to him. It couldn't of happened to a nicer guy.
Shit like that always happens to people who really don't deserve it.

Delfino: that's sadly right!... My sister-in-law's mum is probably living her last months. She's such a wonderful person, a dear friend for so many people...

A question for Master Yoda or someone else across the pond - I understand most of your crazy English slang ;-), but what do you mean when you say "half three" when referring to time? Does that mean halfway to three (2:30) or half past three (3:30)...? I know this is only a minor thing, but it's been making me wonder for a while... Thanks for your help...
SymbolDove - Cool...thanks for pointing out that reference to Satch. I know some of us here who read science fiction have come across books that mention things like Ice Nine or Raspberry Jam Delta-V, so we know that's where Joe came up with those titles. But I don't think any of us have really seen Joe's name come up in print in fiction. Cool.
Artanis I - Hey, you! I was away for quite a while but just recently made a T2J comeback. It's cool to see you back here as well, now. :-) How's life been treating you?
OldSkoolGP - Welcome to the site. :-) It's always cool to meet new fans here. Do you have all of Joe's albums yet, or are you still working on getting them?
...Austin...

I've been a big time fan of Joes', and I've seen him live 12 times (4 times back stage). While I'm pumped about the album and tour, I have to say I am totally blown away by buckethead. I saw him live back in November, and Damn!!!! I was so blown away by what I saw and heard, I can't get enough of him. Over 30 records, and very diverse! Yeah, I know the persona is wierd, but once you get past that, you will be in awe!
Joe- you have to get the guy on a G3 tour!

Do The Stu- I definitely agree Macs can make things easier. Not having to be worrying about anti virus gear for a start makes a difference! I just love the way it all operates, much quicker moving between applications etc... We don't have a flashy mac at the moment- just 2 separate mac-minis, none of the super-duper ones, but they do the job! Their appearance is deceptive! One of the mac-minis is on broadband, the other just for Logic express composition stuff (my husband uses that mainly!) Would love to get a powerbook one day... and I agree, widgets are cool! :)
MasterYoda- sorry to hear about your friend and his family's loss.
