there is really nothing I need.  A Gretsch White Falcon (original one,not the reissue) is out of the question. I definitely don`t need any more equipment. Or my dream car. An Austin Healey 300 mkII. Or the money to get the tattoo on my other arm that I wan`t.

That looks great Amy. No way will I put any tattoo near my naughty parts though. I already have the next one planned. 800.00 worth of car repairs monday puts that on hold. I`m glad  I had it done before the car gave trouble. Actually, I wanted to put my red strat criss crossed with my daughters purple one. I am allergic to strawberries and they advised me not to use red ink. So I had my rickenbacker put on instead.

I almost bought some the other day. A bottle of Diet Coke looked better instead.

jjj maybe she is a little hurt, ever think of putting a small one some where else for her?

I would love to. She doesn`t want me to. She say`s it`s bad luck to put your spouses name on a tattoo

Don`t forget used. You can get a lot more wattage with used than if you bought brand new. Look in music stores and craigslist. With the economy the way it is, it`s a buyers market. The only thing I don`t go for is buying stolen. No matter how good the price is.

Well put. I always wondered what the difference is between a christian E chord and a secular E chord.

Anybody that has been on my facebook page can see  my daughters nickname. Her purple strat and my Rickenbacker 450 criss crossed on top of my name. (Tattooed on my arm). I still  dont  know how to post pics and I have been trying. Just wondering what everyone thinks.

Arlo Guthrie. Used to only like  "coming into Los Angeles". Now I can appreciate his music more. It took 40 years. The title of this topic did make me snicker.Dirty mind I guess.

We have snow here in Central NY too.  I have a feeling this year will be like the "good ole days".  I kind of enjoyed the scarce snow last year and got spoiled.  The really weird thing though is that I live right by a lake.  WE don't usually get a lot of snow here until the lake gets colder and freezes (or at least starts to ice over).  They usually get more about 15 miles from us until that happens.  However, they currently have less than us.  So, if my bat senses are correct, we are IN FOR IT this year!  I hope Jim gets a plow for that old clunker soon.  I think we'll need it.  I forsee the kids sledding in the back yard on the snow piles from plowing the driveway this year.

My wife is from North Tonawanda and  talks about the lake effect snow.

None here in Massachusetts. YET

Do any of you have wrist trouble? I do all the time. I am always wearing braces on my left knee (got hit in the knees by a Rabbit in 1981) and my left wrist.(just getting old). My wife bought a pack of wrist braces at Dollar Tree for me to try. They work great. They come in a pack of 2 for 1.00. I have tried the expensive ones and they don`t work. The cheap ones are thin and stay in place. You can put your watch right over it too. If they don`t work, you will only be out 1.06 (with tax). If you have trouble with your wrist hurting, try them. Don`t buy the big clunky expensive ones until you try these. Plus, they are cheap enough to throw away if they get dirty or worn out. They do stretch out and become useless after awhile. But at .50 each, who cares.   NOTE: I`m not really a doctor. I have never even stayed at a Holiday Inn Express

My wife saw a new way to cook turkey on one of the cooking shows last night. She cut the backbone off the turkey and cut it into 4 pieces. She said it cut 2 hours off the cooking time. Anyone else ever done this? Just sharing the info. I offered to take the 4 of us out to eat. She refused.

Good for you Roger. The last two comments were uncalled for. I don`t know who started it, but it turned into a schoolyard fight. It is kind of funny that adults act that way. We just went through that here with the presidential; election

Hendrix, Lennon, Elvis. It`s called staying power. Only the top of the heap can still come out with new music long after they are dead. Let`s see todays rap (singers,artists?) do that.

Same to you dino. And to everyone else too.

In old movies and TV shows, have you ever noticed the old guitars people were playing. Especially the old Elvis movies. You can find some really cool instruments in these movies. I have seen Elvis playing a doubleneck Gibson. This morning I saw Tennessee Ernie Ford playing a cool Gibson on The Lucy Show. The old Frankie and Annette movies always had some band playing surf music in the background. The plots may have been lame but there are some cool vintage guitars to be seen in these movies. Even Bobby Vinton and Jackie DeShannon were in a surf movie that had a band playing  fenders. Try it. You may like what you see. Also Hee Haw had some cool instruments.
