Keniko: Great vid, is that a headless bass I see? My dad plays one identical to that...nice wallpaper...
Glitzman: Ah, that would make sense...I'll be sure to let you know if I'm ever over that way. :)
JSPhil: Patience young padawan...And let's salute Britain's finest, the Royal Marines! (woops indeed)
maritime: Phwoar! What a job eh? Pity I can't scuba dive or anything like that....
ibaez_god: Good luck applying, carpe diem as they say. (never knew where fish came into that, but hey...)

thx i tell yer mama M tis a relief, i was pretty much screwed t look for work in Barca because Madrid for some reason "after waiting for months & paying the government 250 Euro" cant find the Spanish equivalent of my Scottish exam papers...250 notes & countless hours spent on cueing & paper work organisation for sweet f all!
Now at least i can look & apply for work here as opposed t being offered badly paid construction labour work paid in the black
PS:NB t all those from other countrys even if you ARE within the EU looking for work in Spain......your old exam papers are WORTHLESS!!! dont even attempt moving here unless you can get the Spanish exam equivalent & have your speakin & written Spanish down pat
a LOT of peeps think they can swan into Barca & get a free lunch.....it dont work like that here...be warned

hrblocked--Sorry to hear you lost your job. There's got to be another one with your name on it. I hope your search takes you to a better place and a satisfying career.
Where are the new jobs? Does anyone know anything about jobs in energy, electric power, solar, wind and electronics recycling? I would think those are the job growth areas.

Sincere congrats Roy, good things will come from this.
I was "shocked" to read "watt" a hard time it is to find work on the Barc "circuit". I am sure this diploma will "short" the "line" for a great job. If you get "resistance" don't blow a "fuse" (as you have been known to do in the past) and simply finish your "electrifying" performance on album number 2.
You have real "capacity" to do great things and have shown youself to be a skill set "transformer" and a renaissance man. Now go play with your "amp" and have some "current" jam for lunch......

Maritime--Thanks for the post about ACOUSTIC ANTHOLOGY. It looks like a good instructional book. I'll give it a look through.
Skippygirl--How you doing with your guitar?
My guitar lesson was postponed until the end of this week. Ry's schedule changed suddenly. That's okay because it gives me more prep and practice time.
Have a great Tuesday, everyone.

ibanez_god:Thx bud btw Your bro was a lucky S.O.B. & now in this crisis even the best qualified are lucky t keep a job down! I was told point blank at the job centre 7 years ago if i dont speak spanish or have the spanish equivalent of my qualifications i might as well forget it.I looked anyway, i found zero but for illegal work in construction that i battered away at for the next 5 years.
There are some lads i,ve met here that could bullshit themselves into a nunnery, they have the gift of the gab, i,m afraid i,m not one of them
GG2:That was the reason i spent a year on an electrician course.. better prospects.Having family now i had t make the wisest choice, so many other sectors now t choose from. When y see builders being let go by the truckload its the first sign of a sick economy there was no choice but t leave & study something else b4 the rest follow suit, the early bird gets the worm n all that
mikesb:)lol thx bro n yip i,m pretty good at fuse blowage, gettin rewired for tonights work
Thx one n all, you guys ROCK!
Sparkboy lol

Another job field that is on the up-swing despite the state of the economy is the medical field. Nurses, nurses aides etc.. If you have the patience (and the stomach)..it's a job industry that will only get better over the next decade or so. I was considering getting out of the construction racket and going back to school to work at a clinic or a hospital.
And Holy Buckets !! We had -40 F at my house early this morning. How do you like them (frozen) apples?

Slan, all the free lunch is here in America. People work their whole lives and have to fight to get on disability and social security, but seems people who weren't born here and moved in 5 minutes ago are welcome to it.
Mikesb, that post was electrifying. Must be time to go ohm.

Hi Joe,
The SatchZone Lessons are awesome, but I'm getting worried! Only one lesson in December, and only one published in January without a future publishing date in sight. The first five months were worry free with a new lesson every other Friday. I was guessing that Workshop Live would publish three lessons in January to catch up. I know that this isn't your fault and would just like to bring this to your attention. Subscribers are feeling short changed by Workshop Live and some are threatening to cancel their subscriptions to various lessons (Benson, etc.) due to lack of response from Workshop Live. I hope this will be resolved soon and we can look forward to learning more from you. Thanks!

GG2 - You want to get in the safest career field in the country? Get into the medical field. The projected shortage of medical help is going to increase over the next 15 years as the baby boomrer generation all cross over the age of 55.
Plus its one job that can't be outsourced!! Well, maybe billing, but not patient care!

Good Afternoon Satchland..... What up?..... Well we've reached our avg. snow fall already at 37". But it gets better.... It'll be -1 tonight, 2 on Thur. and warming up to 3 on Fri. Windy City....It's more the Freezing City. That's what give Chicagoens their character and I'm the biggest character you want to meet......
Thanks for the nod on the vid. You peeps are the bestest cyber family anyone could ask for.. Thank much.
michelle....Thanks sweetie.....I've always wanted to be a 10. Hugs to ya.
Slans.... Congrats.....I know from around Chicago and having ben' in construction myself(concrete)it's a lot of schooling....for obvious reasons. Electricity is safe, but you definitely have to know what your doing or it's instant Mohawk....Check out my vid when you get a chance.
Igneousiceman....Yeah, it's a headless. Ralph just picked it up about a month ago and it sounds really good. If you look closely at our vid, he's playing the keyboard part with the bass pedals in real time. That vid was one take. We were all laughing afterwords cuz' it took me about 1-1/2 hrs. to mic everyone and get the levels right and 5 minutes to record it.
Have a Great Day Everyone !!!!!

Sorry, since I'm on Joe's website my alias should read joestime_jimisvoodoo. Oh well, Joe should've come first.
Joe's time of course stands for Time Machine and Time-on the Crystal Planet album. And Jimi's voodoo is for Voodoo Chile.
Just want to say hi to Joe, my favorite guitarist. I have 9 of your albums Joe, keep'em coming.

Answer:
In all of the words listed, if you take the first letter, place it at the end of the word, and then spell the word backwards, it will be the same word.
BTW read my name backwards too, but don't mess with the letters, cos you'll upset Joe.....
