Hello Y'all!

Thank you everyone for the support in my running.

I had my 5K run today. Despite the cold & windy temperatures, the run went great, as well as the sun being out. My time was 18 minutes & 49 seconds. Don't know my placing, but I know I finished in the top 15-20 out of about 200 plus participants. My next run is Saturday; another 5K.

After the run, I had to make a beeline to work (more reservations on Valentine's Day weekend). It went a lot smoother than last night.

Thanks again everyone. Gotta get some rest. Have a busy week ahead of me, as well as my next run.

By the way, Happy Valentine's Day everyone.

Wey hey today I received the LIP CD at least, still waiting on the DVD.

Skippygirl . . Still waiting for the dvd to arrive on british shores too!

The cd is available here but I think you will get the dvd before we do because when live in San Francisco was released here the cd was available before the dvd but as luck would have it my brother was touring round Oz and he saw it on video and bought it and sent it to me! (:

I never went to the San Fran gig but went to 3 gigs from Joe's Last tour so i'm dying to get my hands on the dvd!!!!

Does Wolf2 still post his crazeee post here???

Hmmmmmm, ever notice that Chadley and wolfie seem to disappear from these pages at the same time???

Michelle and Austin---Interesting stuff about Bass players. I've noticed that Joe has mainly worked with Stu Hamm and Matt Bissonette. It's a surprise to see him with Dave LaRue who I think of as Steve Morse's bass player. A pleasant surprise! And what a playing style!

I'm not that familiar with Matt. I love the way Stu plays......he really brings a trio together and I enjoy his steady style.

Two other bass players of note are Billy Sheehan who I think of as Steve Vai's bass player and Mike Daane who I have heard on Andy Timmons' album Resolution.

Glitz Man--Hope your running goes well.....have fun!

Peace Lily--Thanks for sending your vid links......great memories of Joe and learning for relatively new fans like me.

Uncle roy---Do you think you'll try for the job offer or no? I hope the pay is reasonable.

Jobs in California are few and far between, at least in my area.

mike ya bollox lol one med class one adv decent pay 2...btw how much for the guitar & from what ilk it be?

Alan--Yeah.....a few of us, LOL! Don't know how many over 50s besides me.

Slanshroom: Thanks Roy. Hope you get the guitar job/gig. You deserve it!

Glad to see Canada got their first gold in the Olympics (on their home soil). I'll miss it tonight due to work. I wanted to see if the Chinese pair (Shen & Zhao) will get the gold in pairs figure skating. I'm also rooting for the other Chinese pairs and the couple from Germany. Russia won it too many times; it's time for another country to win it. Best to all the athletes.

Slanshroom- RE; fishing chocolate biscuits out the DVD player.... ;-) Da good ol days ..when my boy was small he would put all kind of things in the VCR ...... toast , crackers..etc. now he's almost grown up......those days do go by sooo FAST ( seems like yesterday)............... Good Luck with yer red tape issues too.

GG2- Your welcome for the links and yes ..... a good source of learning for newbies 'cause I am one too. I can't stop watching Joe links.......so much to catch up on and so little time.... And on the age issue, I think age is just a number ...look at Joe he's more active than most teens ......... I wonder if he's still eating vegan? Seems to be working for him.....

Blue Moon - I too am curious bout the friend "pissing" Dave off........you must fill us in on the details.

Glitzman- Way to go!!!!!!!!!!
