Hey Glitzy - good luck with the race!! Guitar is coming along very slowly due to our house project finishing and having to miss some practice to get house things sorted. Been unpacking boxes every night this week but I set a goal and knew I would have distractions like all Mums so I have to fight off stuff and ignore some chores and sit down with the guitar.

I was surprised to find last night (about 11pm) when I started practicing after feeling super shagged I played the G scale really well (for me) without even warming up with my normal exercises (all the chords, switching chords, 1st to 4th strings notes, barre chords - aarrgghhh, same 4 basic strumming songs, same 4 picking songs, blah blah) my brain seemed to lock in which string to hit at the right time with the left hand. Weird......

burly - I have no idea about the electronics associated with sound - I just have the old Tele plugged into the $3.80 Woodtock amp _ don't even know what I'm supposed to do with "treble" and the other one, just the volume :0). If someone can send me a design chart of which device to plug into which thing, and the settings to use, I'll find someone to set it up for me haha.

Did you see maritime's vid of some guy making 500 settings on a panel of some sort, just to play The Extremist?????

Cappy Steve - prayers and good vibes for you and your lady.

Do The Stu - you mean a Sammy opening like this.... Sammy

Laters all

Do the Stu:No worrys dude btw no chance of y gettin NEAR Groom Lake without putting your life at risk but i guess y new that right? The most famous test/research facility on the entire planet yet the US government tells us it doesnt exist....*slan slaps forehead*... for that alone y got t try

Skippygirl: "super shagged" lol got a new line for the day... i,m not humped i,m super shagged

Slan, the other day T said -" Keep it frosty my bitches!" - damn near fell out my chair laughing!

Super shagged... I thought that was the horizontal bop? lol! If that were the case, then I wouldn't mind being it, but if it just means really tired...nah.

Happy Friday peeps!!

again - best to Cappy's wifey.

My sis goes back to the hospital today. She's prolly gonna get her stitches out. ack!

A nursery school teacher was delivering a station wagon full of kids home one day when a fire truck zoomed past.

Sitting in the front seat of the truck was a Dalmatian dog.

The children started discussing the dog's duties..

'They use him to keep crowds back,' said one child.

'No,' said another, 'He's just for good luck .'

A third child brought the argument to a close.

Wine or Water

To my friends who enjoy a glass of wine.. . and those who don't.

As Ben Franklin said: In wine there is wisdom,

in beer there is freedom,

in water there is bacteria.

In a number of carefully controlled trials, scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 litre of water each day, at he end of the year we would have absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli , (E coli) - bacteria found in feces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop.

However, we do NOT run that risk when drinking wine & eer(or tequila, rum, whiskey or other liquor) because> alcohol has to go through a purification process of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting.

Remember:

Water = Poop,

Wine = Health

Therefore, it's better to drink wine and talk stupid, than to drink water and be full of sh*t.

Mini-moments of brilliance amongst months of babble chelle, lol!! Me I mean, not u!!

Happy Friday indeed....hope everyone has a good day and stays safe out there...I have the day off and the cheese-let home for the weekend so u know there's no rest fer the wicket all weekend!! And I started this darn day at 5:15, that's sick and wrong!!!

Roo, since yer hoping to make the first or even several of the cd release shows in May over here....make sure to wear a t-shirt that has a big arrow pointing UP and says "ROO" on it so's we can find ya.....I hope to make it as well :) Always interested in meeting yet another crazy Joe-fan! Us loonies gotta flock and stick together....

Which makes me wonder.....is a large group of Joe-fans called a flock? A gaggle? A brace? A herd? A swarm?? Hmmm, me thinks we need to come up with our own....

LOL....

Al McKenna--Why is it you who points out that it's OK to differ in opinion with Joe on sound components and song choices? It should be self-evident that Joe doesn't have all the answers to everyone's equipment needs/tastes. In fact I think Joe welcomes differences of opinion on song choices, etc. Good for you being different and enlightening! My favorite kind of luni!!! ;-)

Maritime--I hope you are taking good care of yourself before taking care of your family/friends. It's not easy taking medications every day--I know that from my own experience. I hope the meds don't have much in the way of side effects. I hope you have the best doctors working for ya! Now if we could encourage good dentistry outside the United States of America, world wide health would get a needed boost. I just had the 2nd in a series of 3 dental appointments for getting replacement crowns on my top front incisors....no fun; however, I am glad for the preventive aspect of health it has provided for me since I was a wee girl. My parents insisted in excellent dental health because of what they experienced growing up.

Michelle--I hope your sister is on the road to feeling better. You are such a great sister to be her best friend and support person. Sisters and brothers (by blood or not) are such great support to each other in the spirit of generousity, humility and compassion. Love takes so much hard work, but it is worth every sacrifice and the give and take involved enriches even those who witness the give and take interactions!

Do the Stu--What a welcome sight to see your posts. You have so much to share. I learn a lot from your experiences.

Al McKenna--This old woman has much to learn from the younger generations--much more than you will ever know.

Thanks to all the T2Jers on this site.

When I saw Sammy last year, Michael Anthony came out to play for the last half of the show. Sammy got on his knees in the middle of the stage, did that "Heeellooo Baaabyyy" scream and Mikey came running out. They did Good Enough, Why Can't This Be Love, and Best Of Both Worlds and then some other Sammy stuff.

I wouldn't mind hearing Chickenfoot do Good Enough, actually...hmmm.

I could get behind Sammy singing Big Bad Moon...I bet he'd really like that song, actually...

I'd like to make a concert G3 in Venezuela, its presentation in Venezuela was extraordinary, and a G3 serious grandiose...Thank you, Thank you very much.
