When I was a kid, my Dad attempted to show me some chords several times.  Likely, it was on his 1950's Fender acoustic, but nothing ever clicked.  I joined Chordie on day ONE of my learning.  I learned for a few weeks on my husband's Wal-Mart Yamaha... then MY first guitar was an Ibanez Classical.  It's only been a few years, so it's still here, although I hardly ever pick it up anymore.  My daughter thinks she might want to play, so I let her mess around with it and occassionally attempt to show her a chord or two.

very nicely written Jeff, and having heard your style before... I can imagine what this sounds like too!  You have a way with words!

if you pay for a domain name with godaddy, they give you some "free" webhosting with it - free with ads of course, but none the less... you're looking at less than $20 for a year.  Of course, whomever your ISP is... they usually give you some free hosting as well!  If you're talking about just staying in touch, you could always make a free facebook page for your group.

Well... right now you can go into stores and buy Christmas pattern fleece throws for less than $5... so it would be very cheap to make one!  LOL!  Although the guitar would be dressed for Christmas year round.  ha ha!  Perhaps I will give it a try and give it to the hubster for a Christmas present next year! 

Not sure which mod removed the link - here's one to their youtube video:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2PFzaDk … r_embedded

So... I'm curious Z, how much did you pay for this?  It does look super easy to make (and I can sew).  However, I like to see my guitars hanging on the wall, and they're cheap, and I don't love them that much.  Now... if I had an expensive guitar, I would absolutely consider something like this!!!  Simple, neat idea!

I wish they had been that generous!

Additional thanks!  Nothing too special, Dad stopped by with a card and money... my son made fundamiddles (cupcakes with filling... try them if you see them at the grocery store.  VERY GOOD MIX)... and the hubster grabbed a pizza from the best pizza place around.  A few drinks and happy ending made for a perfect birthday.    Of course my mom and mother in law stopped over the next night with another card with money, more cake, and presents.  All in all it was a nice b.day. 

I don't know about prettiest in my thirties though... I think I've gained a few wrinkles just this past year!  LOL!  Thanks again all!!!

we've got a really neat chess set here that my husband bought for his father many years ago in Mexico.  I'll have to open it up and take a pic one day and show ya Russell.  It's quite beautiful and very ornate.  I don't think it's actually been played with in a LONG TIME... if much at all.

awe.... Thanks guys!  I officially hit mid thirties the other day... and interestingly, it was the first year that I said, "really it's just another day".  I do still like to get the happy messages though.  Thanks again!

My birthday was the 30th... so we had our drinks then... last night, we all passed out before midnight and said a nice little new years welcome this morning with a full nights rest.  LOL!  Today... maybe a little guitar and some more sweatpants for me!    Happy New Year everyone!

Happy new year Chordians!!!!!!

Very impressive.
