The Member that Gets Alpep Mad Every Reply (GAMER) is a much more noteworthy prize!
Ask Jeff or Wease, or Waskel or... |

Except maybe for including "Knocking On Heaven's Door" in last year's video. Or taping him with his mouth full of scrambled eggs. Or any one of several things scheduled to show up in this year's video (Brad's fault anyway, and no, it's not done yet).
Maybe I should be trying harder, but Jeff's so darn competitive. |

( and anyway, Al's under my thumb. I have some dirt on him, that he would rather not see go public) |

Location: Budd Lake, NJ | I wasn't going to post anything, but, a gentle observation might be that someone whose roots go back into Catholicism or who has a family member called to have a vocation as a nun might be just slightly bothered by Jeff's verbally reprehensible pairing of words in the thread a couple above this one.
I'm not asking for posts to be censored, deleted or impinged upon; what I am asking for is that some thought be given as to who might be reading the posts on this board for the first time and drawing conclusions about all of us as a whole based on the postings of a few.
Fillhixx had said in a previous post something to the effect that if you knew women were present people might watch what they say; well, whether I post or not, I read the board regularly--which makes me "present"--and usually only post when something really evokes a response. If this post seems a bit harsh, well, sorry about that; I think it deserves saying.

I am back! I went through a period of not feeling so well, but I am kind of use to that. I am feeling good now, and I look forward to seeing all the neat Ovation stuff I missed out on. |

Funny. I was born, raised and even confirmed in the hallowed halls of the Roman Catholic Church and coming from a long line of Italian breeders, have no less than two relatives who serve the Catholic ministry as clergy and missionary.
So does that get me a pass?
if not...
It's sorta like the cartoons of Mohammed... Just cause Muslims are forbidden to dipict 'him', does not mean the same prohibition applys to the rest of us. They get pissed because they are intolerant (not a good thing to be in a world where there are lots of people who think differently than you).
The "Held Sacred" thing gets no special dispensation in my book. I don't expect people not to poke fun at my beliefs (in fact, I encourage it), cause they are free to think and say what they wish. I hold myself to the same standard.
And might I add that my comment, though potentially prevocative was made with tongue firmly in cheek. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | This Catholic lawyer wasn't offended, but I can understand how some might have been. After I winced at Jeff's comment, it reminded me of a joke about the nun who used profane language on the golf course... but I decided not to tell it.
I have to remind myself that my daughters may read this board someday. I'm sure the obscenities wouldn't surprise or offend them, but I sure wouldn't want them to know what I do all day.
Incidentally, everyone at the NW OFC gathering was well-behaved. I was not at all embarassed to take my daughter there and she had a good time. It would have been nice if some other female guitar players showed up, however, so let's try to keep the ones we have on this board if we can. |
