....Damn, lost my 3,000 character post!....

I'll make it quick....

OCPS470: lol bro, Pablo is one kuul cat that doesnt take life too seriously, lol....

slanshroom: I think this will all blow over soon, it has to before it escalates beyond control, but you have to put bullies in their place as you know.... And as you know, all the North people need is Western business intervention to fix their problem....

Zenman: I know we can not erase the mistakes of the past, but some Presidents have tried to make it better.... I definately do not agree with the way they were screwed over by the white man, but all we can do is learn from the past and strive to be better people....

Ibanezplyr: Great news on your setup bro, portable is the way to go, and dont worry about the music, I will check it out on cdbaby.... Thanks for sending me your music, and you guys keep rocking!! :-)

Sorry to see the Portugal loss, but they are 4th best in the World, congrats!! :-)

Stevee T.... ;) my eyeballs were already there, LOL...but thanks fer lookin out fer me!! :)

We just had a grrrrreat time at a friend's annual 4th of July (always done on the Saturday following) potluck and fireworks extravaganza out in the country....old fashioned pick-a-nick type games like 3-legged races, pass the orange under yer chins, tug-o-war.....great food, KICK ASS fireworks ( he gets a permit from the Fire Marshall and a background check from Homeland Security so he can shoot off the REHEEEALLY big ones, LOL)....the theme was Mardi Gras, so we all got beads...glow sticks to make necklaces and bracelets, masks, funny hats.....in fact, I'm sitting here in the dark at my puter, but I'm glowing all over, LOL.....

My son Chris played his first real live gig...solo...for the event. We kicked everything off with the Star Spangled Banner which he played beautifully.....a prayer, and good food.....after the eats and before the games, he played...he used backing tracks and did a really great job. Played Sleepwalk, All Alone, Rain by Vinnie Moore, and Psycho Monkey...and when he was all done, people were asking him to play MORE, LOL.....I tole him to always leave them wanting more :D

So thank gawd fer that, he did great and now it's OVER....

And before the fireworks...the hosts of the party gave a talk, as they do every year, of what being free in America means to them....we had the colors presented...and the song "I'm Proud to Be An American" was played and sung...it was extremely moving. We honored all the veterans there and those that we held in our hearts.

Makes for a tearful, yet joyful celebration. We all felt very lucky to be here.

JOE...I REALLY HOPE YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THIS POST....COZ IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THIS ONE THEN HOPEFULLY YOU HAVEN'T SEEN EVERYONE ELSE'S ARGUING!!!!!!

Lots of work on company and my sister bought a new house, now we are moving everything, but the new house rocks on the middle of the fields of the Portuguese west :-)).

OVATION1 - Hello my great friend :-) !!! Nice to hear other day on the phone :-)). Hope you have a great weekend and Good luck to Italy :-)). Portugal got the 4th place but i`m very proud :-)). Cheers bro :-) !!! P.s: Thanks for the Pablo Rambo`s pic lol :-).

DCK - I didn`t read very well, i saw condolences for you, my condolences bro but who died? Sorry to ask :-/. Thanks for the link of that great guitar player, awesome :-).

OCPS470 - About the other post, that`s right my friend, that`s always a great pleasure see our team win a great teams on the World cup. And sorry to hear about the crash car accidente experience when you was 13. It is always a very bad experience that we will never forget :-/. Hope you are cool and keep you rocking in a free world ;-)) !! Regards for you!!!

SATRIELLA - Hello Sweetheart :-). Hope you are ok :-)). Thanks a lot for your e-mails, you are very kind :-). Have a good weekend :-) and see you later :-) !!

SUZIE2000 - There`s one thing that i don`t undesrtand: why so much rage against a man like Cristiano Ronaldo? He is a kid playing and fighting for his team. Wayne Rooney is not a saint. i saw on the news: Rooney got two games out and he must pay 5000 Euros. The English press is not moderated and they put many bad things on the mind of the English people. Suzie is just wanna ask you one thing: Chill out ;-)) !! It`s a game not a war :-). Have a good weekend :-) !!!

PTROCKER - Prazer em conhecer-te Vasco :-). Parece que vais a Madrid ver o Joe. Eu também lá estarei. S precisares de um bilhete, eu tenho um a mais :-). Se precisares de contactar-me manda e-mail para alexandrecaetano@hotmail.com. Um abraço.

Good weekend friends, take care :-)

Satriella: don't give up!;) Reagrdless of who is insulting who, there are people here (gladly the majority) that doesn't deserve to be included in that basket...

And if you leave, there'll be one less of those...

I believe you can teach the others with your example... The worse it can happen is the others not to learn, but at least you tried. C'mon, there several of us that appreciate your presence! @];-

As for the drwaing, you will explain in a email how much I don't like to see my face in pictures, but I'll try to send a good one to you! I'm trying to decide which one. All my favourites have my face as a blur, as I prefer to see the guitar! :)))

Bom dia, Alexandre!

Prazer idem!;) Era curtido encontrarmo-nos em Madrid! Sabes quem vai fazer a primeira parte? (eu não) Vais para lá muito cedo?

Foi pena aquilo ontem, mas um 4o lugar é muito bom! :)))

JOE OR WEBMASTER: I got a Spanish magazine in Spain last week and the advertising about Joe`s concert had as first act: ADRIAN LEGG, that is truth?!?!? Thanks in advance :-) !!

PTROCKER - Vou dia 17 à noite de comboio, aquele em que podes dormir e chego dia 21 de manhã a Lisboa. Vou com a minha namorada e uma amiga. Vamos um pouco mais cedo para curtir mais Madrid. Já lá estive 2 vezes para ver o Joe mas fui sempre na vespera e chegava no dia de manhã. Desta vez vou dar por lá uma voltinhas com mais atenção. É a tua primeira vez? Se é, vais gostar. Sim era porreiro encontrarmo-nos :-). Temos que combinar isso ;-). Sim foi pena aquilo ontem, mas já estou bastante orgulhoso. Pena que está tudo contra o Ronaldo mas a culpa é principalmente da impressa Inglesa, deturpam tudo, arranjam logo calunias, uma treta, enfim. Vai falando que quando posso passo por aqui ;-). Um abraço e prazer em conhecer-te :-). A.C.

GOOD NEWS: SCOTT HENDERSON IN PORTUGAL :-)) !! JULY 29 th in MAFRA !!!!

alexandrecaetano:I know he is for the Barcelona gig at least thats whats advertised, how cool is that!

PTROCKER- Thanks, definitely agreeing to disagreee is the way forward.:)

SATRIELLA- Surely people are allowed to have different opinions on here about a variety of things? Whether that has something to do with guitar issues, sport or history... Just skim the posts that don't interest you...

ALEXANDRE- I don't believe everything I read in the papers here, I make my own mind up. That's a bit patronising of you to suggest that everybody here is that thick. Anyway, if you read my post (to PtRocker) I was just answering his points, and am quite chilled out already, but thank you for asking...

cheese 101...okee doughkee...the party sounded like summer magic...;} congrats to Chris...his 1st solo...things moxie are made of...

Bruce Lee's favourite motivational poem:

by Harry and Joan Meier entitled, "It's all in the state of mind."

If you think you are beaten, you are.
If you think you dare not, you don't.
If you like to win, but you think you can't,
It is almost certain you won't.

Life's battles don't always go to
The stronger or faster man,
But sooner or later the man
Who wins is the man
WHO THINKS HE CAN...

Bruce Lee had this framed in his office at Golden Harvest Studios.

Good luck to France and Italy today :)

Zenman: I know how you feel, and the honest truth is that both the Republicans (which Bush gives a bad name IMO, lol) and the Democrats all have the same thing in mind.... They just go about it in different ways, although I really believe that the Democrats understand human emotion and care about us more.... I'm going off course here (about the Indian), but I hear ya on the South despising the way the America's try to rule the world with it's power and do what I say attitude.... Such are the rewards for a superpower, and depending on the psychi of the person in power, all hell can or cannot break loose at the push of a button.... Between you and me (and the rest of StachLand, lol), I knew this was going to happen if GW was elected, and not to say that 9-11 etc. would not have happened, but because of his arrogance and attitude, it makes sense to me why countries would go out of their way to show their dislike for American society.... We have no control over that, but like you said.... Music is the best cause for peace.... It is the only way to bridge the gap between cultures and society, it speaks all languages; and used in the right context, creates world peace.... Right on bro, and I am singing a pow-wow for the Indian as they are my ancestors....

slanshroom: The thing I feared about GW from the start is what you just posted.... He was in the right place at the wrong time to get elected, and I knew we were going to have an interesting future because of him, lol, God forbid!....
