Bluemoon Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 Huh? Are you serious? Save up like the rest of us. I also wanted a LP since I was a kid. Guess what I didn't buy my first one until I was 40. Couldn't justify the expense before then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sliptrip Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 Huh? Are you serious? Save up like the rest of us. I also wanted a LP since I was a kid. Guess what I didn't buy my first one until I was 40. Couldn't justify the expense before then. Amen to that. I still remember the small LP white keychain I bought for myself when i was 12 knowing that one day I will own a real one. That happened 20 years later. Sorry to hear that your life is hard, but just remember there is always someone out there that has a harder life than you. Not to be mean, but an education can go a long way. Try going back to school, like alot of people who have been laid off and without a job. WHY? 1. For you kids 2. To Further yourself 3. To buy a house for your kids 4. To show ur stable enough to find a good mom for your kids 5. To make ur momma proud 6. To buy your Jimmy Page 59 LP. Did I miss anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LPguitarman Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 Yup, It took me 20+ years to get my first Les Paul and I had to trade in a good guitar to get it. Why do you think Gibson should just hand over a classic guitar to you free of charge? Are you a rock star? or someone famous that would promote their brand name? As others have said, there are many people a lot worse off than you, and all they want is their next meal or a place to sleep. Get on your feet, get a job and stop degrading yourself...

Big Bill Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 It sounds like somebody's priorities are a bit mixed up. I would advise taking the energy your wasting on getting a free guitar and use it to better yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tulsaslim Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 I don't think it's crack. Judging by the non-stop babble of his writing I'd say meth was the culprit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VBB Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 Curtis, You have to know this sounds like a new twist on the infamous Nigerian scam. Especially with the broken English and bad grammer. You mentioned what you don't have, but you obviously have access to a computer, so spend your time finding a job and supporting your kids. I know it sucks and jobs are hard to find, but if you had a kid or two, you're dreams are done and you need to work your *** off to make sure you're kids can live out theirs. If you don't get that, you don't deserve to have kids and should keep it in your pants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
