At least you have a nice full head of hair.
The last time mine was that long was 30 years ago and the last time I had any hair to speak of was 10 years ago.....sigh :rolleyes: |

My partner always tells me that the back of my head looks like a baboon's ass . . .
. . . 'course I always have to counter that with reminding him that I have the "advantage" in that just the BACK of MY head looks like a baboon's ass . . . . :D |

Yeah! It was October, and we were playing a pigroast.
Froze our asses off!
The only saving grace was that we shared the tent with the pig. . . .

You make this WAY too easy. Now tell me more about the pig.

| I didn't mean to start all this....
Sharing a tent with a pig? I've used "artist's rooms" that pigs wouldn't go in. I had a guy say to me once "You can tune up out back. By the way, it doesn't flush." This is when you know you ain't a star.
Besides which - has nobody ever told you you look like Glenn Frey? |

OFC jam? Can I buy a jar? In England we put jam on our toast.
When is it, where is it and who's holding the bets? |

(and varying times before & after)
New Hartford, Connecticut.
(and varying locations thereabouts)
Bets are being held in a sealed, brand new
(handblown glass) bottle of Patron tequila.
I'll bring an extra slide (uh, . . . glass) |

Location: N.E. Pa | Cliff, 40 minutes from the Gap. Scranton, to be specific. Spent plenty of time down there. Ironically, when I lived in NJ(Rockaway and Oak Ridge) I spent more time there, everything from shopping to mountainclimbing to just plain drinkin'. Still a really cool place. Some friends of mine still make it their base of operations for gigging. Alot of musicians down there come from my parts. BTW, while I have your attention, take a look at Ebay #3779270935,US Elite. A little better than the Ultra we discussed earlier, huh? Maybe I'll pursue that one.... |

Location: NJ | Ah, Scranton.
Made famous (to me, anyways) by Mr. Chapin. . .
Traveled through Scranton on the way up to a rafting trip in Watertown, NY (another "Chapin" town . . hmmmmm .. . . )
Haven't seen the Elite on FleaBay, but I'd definitely consider it over an Ultra . . .
I've got an Ultra 12-tring . . . it's a good, decent guitar, but the USA models have just that little extra degree of "playability" that make 'em worth the extra jing . .
g'luck. |

I was born in East Stroudsburg. My father's family founded a little town in the Poconos called Henryville (Dad's middle name was Henry). Cool little place when I was growing up. Not sure what it's turned into now but it used to be a "destination" resort for city folks. |

| So you pick the weekend of my wedding anniversary. Alcatraz was easier to get out of.After 24 years (29 years together) you'd figure I'm the last person she'd need along for a good time but...
I'll try, just don't hold your breath.
I used to get into a lot af trouble with tequila when I lived in LA in the 70s , so maybe you'd better reinstall the bets in a case of guinness.
I kind of casually mentioned the OFC and a trip today and it went down a lot better than I expected. It seems possible. But june? I don't think so. It may be necessary for you to pose as one of the church-leader-type guys to get me out of here. Unlike the guy in the bar in all the cartoons, my problem is that my wife completely understands me.
