DATE LINE: SANTA MONICA, Calif., October 17, 2008 4:10 PM EDT "Santa Monica library offers books that talk back" by JOHN ROGERS (Associated Press Writer) From AP
You know those people you can read just like a book?
Well, on Saturday you will be able to borrow one of them when this city turns its main library into a "Living Library."
Fourteen "living books" will be on hand in this trendy, liberal city, representing an encyclopedia of knowledge on such subjects as nudism, Buddhism and foodism. That's because one of them is a real, live nudist, two are Buddhists and another is a vegan.......
TRACIE S--The above is a very abreviated version of the article sent to me by a Librarian friend from North Carolina. How ironic, an out-of-state friend has to send me an article from southern California to a Californian (living 50 miles south of San Fran.)!! Santa Clara, btw borders San Jose OR SAINT JOSEPH!! OOOOH! What a sentimentalist I am........
I will find the whole article and post it to better shed light on this concept. I myself have never participated in this sort of thing. I hesitate to approach my dept. manager until I get a green light from Satch.
How fortunate we all are to find Joe who has grown into a higher level of musicianship and guitar mastery!! We are all the better for this discovery.
Good night everyone.

Cube:The keeley works great at the end of the fx chain ie b4 delay rev unless y want that ducker effect but after dist eq etc the boss CS3 imo works better at the start of the chain, defo has something do with the attack knob.Cs3 settings i use are level 3 oclock tone 7 attack full sustain full n because the level & pickups are dropped so much i still get note dynamics & articulation but with that smooth soul y dont get without the pedal, it also makes legato stuff a flowing breeze.Like i said i,m using 3 different comps with various settings in the fx chain the guitar practically plays by itself.Brent Mason said the same! cool, thought i was on my own there helluva playa Mr Mason
GG:Man so many great Zep tracks, what happened t creativity like that in bands these days?

Slan - An interesting Q you posed for the golden one, although I suspect it was a rhetorical question. For me though, the very late sixties and early seventies was a golden era for creative music and the problem with golden eras is that they are a bit rare. As a teenager of the time i'm still amazed at all the wonderful music that was on offer. Sure there's lots of good stuff been produced since but nowhere near as much.

mjs99: thanks for the lead, I've been drooling over the JS20th more. But I have spent FAR TOO MUCH on guitars this year. Estimating about $24K I think. I cannot drop another 10K on the surfer.
Yeah, I know, I'm nuts. But it's fun in here.

js1200js1000...that's a lot to pay for one guitar. From a collectors standpoint it might be worth it. I would never play it if I had to pay that much. You can get a playable Joe guitar for lots less...but of course you know that...lol.
And the Mini Q-tron is basically an auto-wah that responds to pick attack.
Can I be in the middle of a 'Chelly n' Cheese sammich? I have a thing for cute moms ;)

Joe. . . I heard a rumor. Are you planning to tour with Sammy Hagar??
Please don't!! How can I say this with tact. . . . OK. . . I am speaking strictly on a personal level, this is only my little opinion. I can't stand Sammy Hagar, I am speaking musically of course. I think that your talent FAR exceeds whatever talent he might have. I can't help but think that he is beneath you.
Tour with someone who's talent compliments yours. My husband asked me. . ."who do YOU think Joe should collaborate with?. . .Prince??"
I said . .HELL YEAH!! Again speaking from a personal point of view. . . that would be AWESOME!! I have loved him since 1984 and my husband introduced me to your music in 2000 and how cool would it be to see my 2 FAVORITE musicians collaborate on even one tune. Speaking of Prince. . . did you happen to go to his performance at the Good Morning America appearance on 6/16/2006?? The only reason I ask is that I could have sworn I saw you mulling around the stage area that day.. .
PS - This message is from John's WIFE Susan (he would kill me if I said this was from him)

Joe,
Thank you for all your YouTube vids. Your joy no one can take from you! In fact happiness is the most contagious thing in the world and multiplies as it is shared--I am waking up to acknowledge this truth as I emerge from isolation.
I also must say thanks for your Living Legends Music interview(s). I enjoy (auto)biographies--because of the rich experiences people have and the interesting paths in life that are taken.
You are a true musical pioneer!

HAVING MOM OVER FOR DINNER
Brian invited his mother over for dinner. During the course of the meal, Brian's mother couldn't help but notice how beautiful Brian's roommate, Jennifer, was. Brian's Mom had long been suspicious of a relationship between Brian and Jennifer, and this had only made her more curious.
Over the course of the evening, while watching the two interact, she started to wonder if there was more between Brian and Jennifer than met the eye.
Reading his mom's thoughts, Brian volunteered, 'I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you Jennifer and I are just roommates.'
About a week later, Jennifer came to Brian saying, 'Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the beautiful silver gravy ladle. You don't suppose she took it, do you?' Brian said, 'Well, I doubt it, but I'll send her an e-mail just to be sure.
So he sat down and wrote:
Dear Mom
I'm not saying that you 'did' take the gravy ladle from the house, I'm not saying that you 'did not' take the gravy ladle. But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner.
Love, Brian ----
Several days later, Brian received an email back from his mother that read: Dear Son,
I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with Jennifer, I'm not saying that "you 'do not' sleep with Jennifer.=A0 But the fact remains that if Jennifer is sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now.
Love, Mom
LESSON OF THE DAY - NEVER LIE TO YOUR MOTHER

Joe,
Just wanted to thank you for the meet and greet before the Wiltern show in Los Angeles. Your passion for music was very evident in your answers to the questions - even before the question could be fully asked! ;-)
Loved the show and you made a new fan out of my wife!

Thanks again!
