Roo - Happy 200th to youHappy 200th to you....lalalala you know the rest LOL
Goldengirl - Get off the fluffy cloud, pick up the phone and go for it!!!!!!!!
Igneousiceman - Now...ya see....I never could get my head round why anyone would want to go somewhere to be shouted at...ie any of the forces? I mean its not nice is it?
when my boss shouted at mebefore christmas, I was crying for the rest of the day....its just an awful thing to do to someone...or to receive...so why go somewhere where you know you are going to get it?
-------------
If you ever have a difficult situation to manage,you might consider the approach offered by this obviously well trained Customer Service Officer.
Indeed, an award should go to the Virgin Airlines gate attendant in Sydney some months ago for being smart and funny, and making her point, when confronted with a passenger who probably deserved to fly as cargo.
--------------------------------------
A crowded Virgin flight was cancelled after Virgin's 767's had been withdrawn from service. A single attendant was re-booking a long line of inconvenienced travellers.
Suddenly an angry passenger pushed his way to the desk. He slapped his ticket down on the counter and said, "I HAVE to be on this flight and it HAS to be FIRST CLASS!"
The attendant replied, "I'm sorry sir, I'll be happy to try to help you, but I've to help these people first, and I'm sure we'll be able to work something out".
The passenger was unimpressed. He asked loudly, so that the passengers behind him could hear, "DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHO I AM?"
Without hesitating, the attendant smiled and grabbed her public address microphone: "May I have your attention please," she began - her voice heard clearly throughout the terminal. "We have a passenger here at Gate 14 WHO DOES NOT KNOW WHO HE IS. If anyone can help him find his identity, please come to gate 14".
With folks behind him in line laughing hysterically, the man glared at the Virgin attendant, gritted his teeth and said, "Fuck You!".
Without flinching, she smiled and said, 'I'm sorry, sir, but you'll have to get in line for that too."
Hugs Satriella xx

ROMANCE MATHEMATICS
Smart man + smart woman = romance
Smart man + dumb woman = affair
Dumb man + smart woman = marriage
Dumb man + dumb woman = pregnancy
OFFICE ARITHMETIC
Smart boss + smart employee = profit
Smart boss + dumb employee = production
Dumb boss + smart employee = promotion
Dumb boss + dumb employee = overtime
SHOPPING MATH
A man will pay £2 for a £1 item he needs.
A woman will pay £1 for a £2 item that she doesn't need.
GENERAL EQUATIONS & STATISTICS
A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.
A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.
A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.
A successful woman is one who can find such a man.
HAPPINESS
To be happy with a man, you must understand him a lot and love him a little.
To be happy with a woman, you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all.
LONGEVITY
Married men live longer than single men do,
but married men are a lot more willing to die.
PROPENSITY TO CHANGE
A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn't.
A man marries a woman expecting that she won't change, and she does.
DISCUSSION TECHNIQUE
A woman has the last word in any argument.
Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.
HOW TO STOP PEOPLE FROM BUGGING YOU ABOUT GETTING MARRIED
Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poking me in the ribs and cackling, telling me, "You're next." They stopped after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals.
------------------
How many men does it take to open a beer?
None. It should be opened when she brings it.
Why is a Laundrette a really bad place to pick up a woman?
Because a woman who can't even afford a washing machine will probably never be able to support you.
Why do women have smaller feet than men?
It's one of those "evolutionary things" that allows them to stand closer to the kitchen sink.
How do you know when a woman is about to say something intelligent?
When she starts a sentence with "A man once told me.."
How do you fix a woman's watch?
No need: There's a clock on the oven.
Why do men fart more than women?
Because women can't shut up long enough to build up the required pressure.
If your dog is barking at the back door and your wife is yelling at the front door, who do you let in first?
The dog, of course. He'll shut up once you let him in.
What's worse than a Male Chauvinist Pig?
A woman who won't do what she's told.
I married a Miss Right.
I just didn't know her first name was Always.
Scientists have discovered a food that diminishes a woman's sex drive by 90%.
It's called a Wedding Cake.
Why do men die before their wives?
They want to.
Women will never be equal to men until they can walk down the street with a bald head and a beer gut and still think they're sexy.
In the beginning, God created the earth and rested.
Then God created Man and rested.
Then God created Woman.
Since then, neither God nor Man has rested.

Its a real shame if this Coldplay thing can't be resolved.
Think of all the potential fans that could be opened up to your genius as opposed to automatically being biased against you.
If only you could make this controversy benefit everyone positively
The best thing in my mind would be if you and Chris Martin could take off the gloves and sit down. Maybe you could get him / Coldplay to admit that their inspiration came from your beautiful composition.
We all know a legal battle only results in dollar-commited attorneys from both sides making out like thieves and creating more animosity. Has anyone ever met an attorney with a real commitment to artistic integrity? Their main concern is billable hours.
I know its not a macho don't-take-whats-mine approach but sometimes you get more bees w/honey
After all they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
Wouldn't you make more money selling music to a new fan base than whatever you get after everyone else takes their share after a lawsuit?

Brrr.... too cold.
Blue Moon - hey mate, how's yer sickness? The only thing that really helped me was rest, but I overdose on OJ and lemsip as well. Whether either of those help is another matter. Get well soon
Michelle - ha ha, yes, I'm not sure reds my colour though. I'll wear the dress to Chicken PA and you decide ; b
Cube - seriously? It takes up a third of your house. How do you choose what gear to use and what gets to sit "in the corner"? So (modded) Tube Screamer over modded DS1?
Anibur - thanks for the compliment. I try. I did another one fairly recent and found an older one so will post them shortly and inflict more pain ha ha. P.S Isn't it meant to be tid bits?
Skippygirl - my fingers took ages to get used to pushing the wire without it hurting. If I "go for it" now (which is not often) the finger tips fall apart and look highly attractive. Solution - play more often (doh). D ought to be reasonably easy but sounds like you have the right approach.
At the end of the day as good as the books are (ref strumming etc) you have to do what's right for you. Looking forward to hearing something! My fingers don't work in this weather, wish I was down under!
Rialton - it wasn't a DVD though, just something for an interview, and it really wasn't a mistake anyway. If you want mistakes he's recorded quite a few live, but I like that. It's more 'real' that way surely.... and proves he's human : )
Igneous - it's a great little ad, but I still don't get why the transformers sound effect is in there. I just wonder what the ad or sound guy thought regarding throwing it in - it's funny! Thanks (ref extremist). Do you have any vids posted (guitar, cycling or otherwise)?
Roo - that guy I emailed you about should have some good song info to share. Did you make contact with each other in the end? Regarding the two new guitars - are they the "project" guitars you mentioned a few months back?
Another comedy vid.... I likes this one
Have a good day all

Hi Joe!!!
I recently watched a video on Music Living Legends and you mentioned having a Hagstrom 3 and that you've been looking for one.
I think I may have found one; only thing it is not white but sunburst.

Hope it works out for you.....

anibur: Err, not everyone's seen Joe let alone met him. Sniff.
roo: Is there anything actually missing from your site?! It seems, well extensive, to say the least.
Satriella: Well, I didn't enjoy it, but a mate of mine is joining the Paras later in the year...so he's, well, a bit crazee. I think it's a bit different in the 'actual' forces (and not the kiddy versions), more of a 'respectful working atmosphere' if the brochures are to be believed :)
JSPhil: Unfortunately no vids, but I'm working on it...haven't even got a chuffin' youtoob account yet. Maybe I should get a head cam for my helmet and do some mountain bike footage....hmmm, that's an idea there...

Doodles - yes, but not getting far, I think the issue is I haven't found a good way to put them on the site and have people directly contribute yet. - not actively working on it right now.
Stuff missing from my site? yes! I still have a sizeable backlog to enter (stacks of CDs and DVDs), it's a slow process.
Also, heaps of older concerts to enter. venues, tours, info about songs, etc.
And then, when I start getting on top of that, I'm going to have to add clips from every song performance to download, and chickenfoot stuff, it will be coming out by then!
Guitars? Ahh, could be... could be.... maybe... wait and see...

Hi everyone, I hope everyone is doing well for the start of 2009. Time to get caught up with you all. Man, it's tough not to talk with all of you when you are busy with a million things.
We have been getting hit with bad winter weather here in Fort Wayne. Now that the ice storm has passed, now we have snow coming this way.
I got back into my running. I ran last Saturday for 2 hours and 15 minutes nonstop. My MP3 Player kept me going throughout the entire time, as well as Joe. I have him and Maroon 5 on my MP3 for now. My races for 2009 will be starting in about a month from now. Doing a marathon is still in question.
Work is going well at the Holiday Inn. I have been trying to talk to some businesses about our hotel to come check us out. I did get a hold of one of our Universities in Fort Wayne (IPFW) and we are having a lunch meeting this Friday afternoon.
SuperDaveMcCarthy: Thanks for the e-mail. How are you and the family doing? Did you take my advice about going on a treadmill or getting a pair of jogging shoes?
Do The Stu: How are things going with you out West man? I hope things are going well for you.
js1200js1000: Hello my Canadian friend!!! What's new up there?
michelle: Hey there. How are you and the family, especially your Dad, doing? It's cold here, but I'm trying to stay healthy. My running probably helps me out the most.
Cheese 101: Hey T-Boz!!! How are you and the folks doing out there in Oregon?
Joe Satrini: Hey man, great to hear from you. I've been busy almost everyday now. What's new over there in the UK?
Satriella: Hey there girl. Like some of those jokes you are putting on there. I-D How are things going with you?
Skippygirl: Hi there. I am back into my running. Ran for 2 hours and 15 minutes a few days back. I am trying to put it as many miles as I can when I am out running. Have you been doing any jogging lately? Playing guitar I see. Good for you.
Railton: How are things going with you? Have you done any more guitar playing? How many Satch songs can you play right now?
death cube k: How are you doing my Canadian friend?
Blue_Moon: Luck of the Irish to you Al!!! How are things going for you over there in Ireland?
Guitarman77897: How's it going man? How's school going for you? Curiousity, how many Satch songs can you play?
tikimon: How are things down there in Florida? By the way, GO FLORIDA GATORS!!! I hope they beat Oklahoma in the BCS Title Game.
Maritime: What's new with you man? I hope things are going well with you.
Igneousiceman: How are you doing there?
slashroom: How are things in Spain my Scottish friend?
fatape: Good day to you down under. What's new over there. It's cold here, so I bet it is probably a little warmer down there right now.
GoldenGirl2: Hi girl!!! How are you and your husband doing? I hope you two are doing well.
Castle49: How are things going with you?
Ibanezplyr: Hey man, are you healed up yet? How are things going with you. I've been busy as usual.
JS_JS: What's up man?
roo: What's new down under? Any more signatures for Chickenfoot? I check your site out sooner or later.
alexandre-caetano: Long time since I have chatted with you. How are things in Portugal? How are you doing so far in this new year?
TO EVERYONE: Anybody watch "Superstars of Dance"? Pretty good show on television. Eight countries battle it out to see who is the best in dance. The eight are:
1.) Argentina
2.) India
3.) Australia
4.) South Africa
5.) United States
6.) Ireland
7.) Russia
8.) China
They are all really good and I can't choose a winner. Best of luck to all eight of them.
Well, I better wrap things up. I am meeting with my running group in about a half-hour from now. Everyone (to those I chat and to those who I forgot), keep in touch with me and I hope you are all doing well. I'll chat with you all again (sooner or later). Bye for now!!
