I agree with you 100%. Why is a pseudo/govermental agency sponsoring a racing team?

Should the FBI own the naming rights to a football stadium?

Instead of giving Lance all that money, maybe they could lower the price of stamps, increase service, keep the guns away from their employees, have trucks that do not break down all the time (many of them around here are always being towed because of mechanical failures), ect ect.

The RNC or DNC could sponsor him, but not the government.

jc penney is coming out with odor eating underwear...mingia!

Hey Mama, simply great stuff goin from your brain into your fingas and my loudspeakas. Your Birthday was yesterday, inŽit.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR JOE; HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU

GREETINGS FROM DA KRAUTS/GERMANY

I got blistas on my fingas!!

N is for Nick

sorry nick but i think i like N for nookie, no offense...lol

Nookie with Nick??

any arguements?

You're all wrong

N is for Norris as in CHUCK NORRIS (Walker Texas Ranger)

Horray !!!

Vacation is finally here.

Not sure what we will do, or where we will go, ect ect.

Either way, rest, New Glarius Brewery beverages will be involved.

Tons of Satch will be blasting.

And we get a Prince concert too - reset from when his drummer's daughter passed away.

May or may not check back while I am gone.

N is for Gnaahh...well, at least it was before we found out it is pronounced Guh-naahh...

I have an Aerosmith tribute album where Yngwie, Stu Hamm, Greg Bissonette, and Ronnie James Dio do Dream On. Stu and Greg are very tasteful, and Ronnie is okay too (even though I think he would be better off singing Kings And Queens)...but Yngwie basically ruined it. He probably played more notes in his first 30 seconds than Joe Perry and Brad Whitford originally played in the entire song. ;-)

These are Robert's comments from his diaries ...

'Mr. Nottingham has it: the positioning is a function of lots of stuff, the transitions between acts, my contribution to Joe's set & the G3 jam. With regard to Mr. Bournemouth, I feel no need to be on display; but neither do I go onstage to hide. Part of my appeal to G3 is logistical: the Lunar Module and its commander are simple to set up & amenable to wherever they are set down. This falls under the heading of The Opening Act.

Toyah noticed, at all of the three shows she attended, that booing & hostile comments came mostly from people who couldn't see me. This has my sympathy. Although I do more-less than anyone I know (and this is an aim in my playing) I do appreciate that people who have bought a ticket, with their hard-earned pay, have the right to see that nothing happening rather than seeing nothing at all. But, technically, we are limited by stuff & the particularities of venues. '

Thanks Austin !! He is dark isn't he?Does he look like Joe do you think? Is Rubina fair?

ZZ does have a grand smile like his Dad.......

TASTEY, mmmm, mmm, toaster....yip yip yip yip yipyipyipyip. hehe

I did my first analytical tests this evening, comparing it in various regimes against my Jem. I gotta say, I love the JS! I wish I'd bought one, it's SO COMFORTABLE!

However, I feel like i'm gonna break it, the body is so sculpted i don't wanna hurt it. Opposed to that, the Jem body feels more sturdy and it's bridge more compliant to abuse, but it's neck feels more vulnerable, and I love the thickness of the JS neck and the frettboard radius.

This is one area which presents a massively noticeable difference - the radius on the JS makes it easier for me to play accurately. That is to say, I can "wing it" but make less mistakes than I would on the Jem. The curvature of the 'board makes spacing nicer, and I love the openness of the 22-frett neck. The upper register is so much easier to flow into than the cramped 24.

That said, the Jem is superior for shred style. These are characteristics that start to come through in the electronics too. My initial verdict is that the JS has the better body and neck, and better wiring but the Jem has better electronics. The Jem is better suited to shred and most noticeably, sweeping, whilst the JS is much better suited to legato and tapping than the Jem.

Although I like the tone of the Jem, I love how easily you can pull a massive variety of harmonics out of the JS, and it all comes naturally.

The JS seems more controllable, and so far i've found it easy to get some very 'Joe' tones out of it.

If I had to recommend one of these to someone who could not afford both, I'd say get the JS.

I'm sure I'll discover more to the JS in the next week, so my feelings may change, but as it currently stands, I think i'm playing the wrong guitar.

anibur - Rubina has dark features. I think Z.Z. looks more like Rubina than Joe. Then again, I haven't seen many pictures of Joe with hair...so it's hard to make the comparison. ;-)

N is for Nookie, and that's good enough for me.....

*eyes google around and crumbs come out the sides of my mouth*

One of the many reasons I despise Elmo is that he takes valuable screen time away from the Cookie Monster.

Happy Birthday Joe!!!! .....a day late ...ooooooooppsss.... 48...84....who cares....keep on playing ......health, love and happiness for you Joe...
