Oh yeah ozymandias! Samuel Adams is some dang good beer. I have yet to sample one that I did not immensely enjoy. I used to, in my younger days, chug down Hamms, Black Label, Schaefer, Milwaukees Best(the beast) and generic Kroger(supermarket) beer. It(Kroger beer) came in a yellow can with "BEER"
written in black letters. Oh the good ole days!!!.........I get a hangover headache just thinkin' about 'em. Hope all's well with you and the family.
Peace and Guitars,

All's well, despite a run of the virus attacking Carla and Amber (wife and daughter). I'm offering prayers to Gods to keep the little critters away from me!
Getting back to beer, the ones I had at the place where you were playing, I think it was called "alligator something or other", something from Key West anyway, with a slice of Lime was pretty tasty.
Alas, I have not the tolerance of my younger days for conspicous consumption.

I have an "A" tuning fork as well. I use it to practice and train my ear to tune better. I use the battery operated tuner when I don't have the time or to check my work.
So many good replies and so much I agree with. I also play for me and for fun, playing guitar is a good intellectual and psychological/emotional lift for me. I only wish I had started long before I did. But, better late than never!

I DRANK MOOSE DROOL! That is really tasty stuff. Amazingly tasty. Makes me want to head west RIGHT NOW it's so tasty. Shoot. It's not even noon yet. The beer gong isn't going to go off for hours yet and I have got a hankering for Moose Drool all of a sudden.
I had it in a haunted saloon in Washington. I didn't notice any ghosts per se, but there were quite a few dead soldiers* around.
BadEye - What tent did you buy? I'm shopping for a family tent right now. I've got three tents suitable for myself plus one (depending on comfort requirements), but need something for the whole family.

* Note for our international friends: 'dead soldier' is slang for an empty booze bottle.
I have yet to meet a micro brewery beer I didn't like!

Why did the bean eating scene from "Blazing Saddles" just flash thru my mind?? hhhhhhmmmm

Not so bad when you're just playing at home , but I had that happen to me one night when my partner and I were playing at a bar ... It was awfull .. I kept glancing over at my partner expecting to see weird looks coming from him , but nothing ... Even my wife in the audience was oblivious .... It took a lot for me not to just put my guitar down and walk away , but then I could'nt do that either ... as the night went on it just went away ... Maybe it was the three or four beers , L O L .... Afterwards everyone said the music was great , so is it just in our heads when this happens ??

Happened to me many times. I just keep plugging or pickin away and sooner or later it all falls back into place.
Hang in there!
Having seen SouthPaw playing and his setup, I can verify that it looks and sounds pretty good!
My teacher showed me how that is done, it was so cool!

I wanted to thank you for that diagram, I just spent a very fruitful hour going over it in detail with my teacher. It really pulled a lot of things together for me, especially in going over past lessons of scales, major and minor chords.
Many thanks!!
I love this place!!!!!
I'm seriously considering having it tattooed on my left forearm. Permanent cheat sheet.
LOL
I'm a pickin' and a grinnin" , our next session is going to include tunes that work along the lines of the Circle fifth. Even, what I thought was a seriously hard task of reading music is beginning to make sense!
Peace

It may be in the stretching and constant practice the tendons and ligaments adapt. Look at devotees of Yoga and dance. The human body can be pretty adaptable!
Yeeha............enjoy the return to normal. <grin>

Good edit Toney
Great game last night, a few good commercials. Hope your business in the Tampa area was booming.
Indeed!! Hope those Super Bowl Tourists and spectators left some money in their wake!
Good one, Southpaw, good one!! LOL

you are kidding right ? if the commercials are one of the most interesting things about the superbowl or any other event then its about time to look in the mirror and take a good look at why you are doing this to yourself ...
Chill Dude.
It's one of the reasons why many of us even bother watching the Stupor Bowl. Advertisements cost millions even for a 30 second add. So people have to come up with the really clever and best adds AND some of the adds have been really hysterically funny and clever.
Albeit, the majority stink like a road kill skunk. It's one of those crazily/stupid/wonderful contradictions of American life. If I had the talent, I'd even write a song about that crap! LOL
It's one of those absurdities of life! <grin>
