playing with the grandkids, grilling, N scale model railroad, music......I play a lot of different places in the KC area. Pizza parlors, coffee shops, bars, libraries, farmers markets, parks...anywhere they won't arrest me. I write a lot of my on material, but also do many cover songs. And I really like Gibsons and Martins.

So, last night I goggled “Who gives a f%&^?,” and my name wasn’t there.

If I’d had as many wives as I’ve had guitars, even the Mormons would have kicked me out. I’ve continuously swapped, sold guitars for over sixty years now. My oldest one is my Hummingbird, which I I’ve had for twenty years now. It’s not going anywhere.

When I was about fifteen, I was booted from the Boy Scouts for eating Brownies. -
Loincloths. One size fits all.

Been walking 3-5 miles a day. Also, bought a Chuck Norris Total Gym around 2 1/2 years ago. . I’m down to 170 from 204 since then. I eat what I want and stay active. Wearing sizes I wore in high school.

Facebook "damaged" guitars giveaway scam
MissouriPicker replied to Scott Adkins's topic in The Gibson Lounge
You better check with Jennifer first. She might be working on her paper clip collection. -
I’m old enough to remember when “stick it up your ***” was an insult and not a pickup line.

What the hell! You can get an Esteban with an amp for $199.

Through the years I’ve sold, traded, given-away more instruments than I can remember. Don’t know if I miss any of them. I guess I don’t think about them enough to miss them. I suspect that many of them have become great guitars for some people. Many of them I didn’t keep long or give them a chance to be “my” guitar. If I didn’t bond quickly with them, they were often gone in a few weeks or less. I’m real content with what I’ve got now…..at least for now.

That’s a good one…….

It’s really embarrassing when my dog sniffs someone’s crotch, because he’s a chihuahua and I have to lift him up.

I called the Incontinent Hotline. They asked if I could hold.

I try to play around 30 minutes or so each day. Some days I play for 2-3 hrs. Much of the time I’m just noodling-around, but every now-and-then I do try to add to my mundane techniques.

Sora AI text to video model .. Holy Hell
MissouriPicker replied to Rabs's topic in The Gibson Lounge
It’s amazing the things that can be done. It’s “brave, new world.” This technology is in its infancy. Kind of scary to think of what some a-holes will be able to do with it———Won’t be long before people are having their lives ruined because an AI version of them appears in a crime. -
I know Gibsons are expensive, but prices are increasing on everything. Beyond that, I like Gibsons, and, if Gibson sold a $500 new guitar I’d probably wonder what shortcuts and concessions did they make. If someone wants or can only afford a low-mid range guitar, Yamaha ain’t bad at all.
