lady s said the same thing. I told her she could go to hell.
The black eye is barely visible anymore and the mattress in the dog house isn't half bad.
So I was thinking ... since the graduation events don't start until mid-day Saturday, I told lady s that I ought to be able to swing by CT without a problem. I've got a nice shiner on the other eye now.
Sir you need to learn how to DUCK

don't teachers get days "off"?? . . . On any day during the week, except Friday and the days before and after a holiday.

In this case, a doctor's note.
Now that I provide special instruction as an independent contractor via various agencies, if I don't work, I simply don't get paid. Otherwise, I will need to set-up make-up sessions with the students' parents and/or teachers in order to receive a paycheck. And I no longer have the luxury of working from September to June, and get the rest of the summer off...
Just tell the school you need to have your truss rod adjusted :eek: :D and your neck reset ;) . |

Location: Rego Park, NY, | I'm planning to be there. I have a situation. My youngest son Chris's birthday is on Thursday May 17th. He is going to be 8 years old. I want to be in the hotel for the Thursday night jam. Since it is a school night I was going to start driving to the hotel after having a early dinner, presents , cake etc. That would mean I would not get to the hotel until close to 11pm.
Any suggestions?

Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | What is the protocol with gear? I'm sure we all bring a guitar, but what about amps? Now might be the right time to go find something really small and portable. Of course, for about the same price, I could by a nice ATA case for the Trace or Acoustasonic Jr. Any recommendations based from those who've been in attendance before? |

Location: Phoenix AZ | You won't need an amp. You don't even really need a guitar - there's plenty there and everyone is pretty cool just passing around their stuff. Last year I didn't want to go to the hastle of carrying stuff on the plane so I shipped FedEx straight to the hotel and it worked out perfectly. Dave |

Bradly Intl. That's it. Huge freakin' airport for such a small state. And the shuttle is real easy to take.
I've traveled with people 2 outta the 3 times that I've gone, and both times, the person I traveled with came home with the free guitar. I think I need to bring my wife. Maybe she'll let me play her free guitar..... |

Location: Fayetteville, NC | In answer to the question about the hotel shuttle, when you get off the plane go to the area wher you pick up your luggage there is a phone under the homwood suites sign, pick it up and tell them your flight just got in and you need a ride to the hotel. they'll come and get you. I'm hoping to be there this year if i can't afford to fly i'll try and hitch a ride with Trboy. |

My wife just told me that she wants to come with me and bring the baby. I'm sure that she'll find find something to do while all the guitar stuff is going on. As she said "I would be sitting home alone anyway". I guess I can't argue with that. |

Isn't that code for "You're crazy if you think I'm letting you go off with a bunch of guys for an unsupervised weekend when there's an infant in need of diapers and feeding!!!" |

Actually, I think she just needs a change of scenery. She's taken a few years off from work to be a stay at home mom, so she's getting a bit of cabin fever. It works out great for me because I hate being away from the baby (ahem...and my wife too). Fortunately, my daughter is 15 months old now, so we've gotten past the "infant' stage. She's already a music fan and loves to dance to just about any music (even her old man's crappy playing!). |
