I use paper plates all the time. Dixie cups, only when there is a party or gathering. Not on a regular basis. Paper plates mainly because they don`t have to be washed.Just the cheapest paper plates. Dixie paper plates are too expensive


hmmm thought I hit the report button but this box popped up.

JJJ that is some funny s@#t I dont care who you are. I am with you on the dixie products way to expensive but my wife insist on the good stuff and she says the wal mart brand colors clash the cool whip serving bowls.

TF thats the one ,about the only thing it does not have is a dixie cup holder on it

Hi Peatle, great story and unfortunately too true!

I have to correct you on a couple of points...

1. This might have been more at home in poems?

2. Here in the UK we now have to pay for dental treatment, there are NHS dentists but you can never get in to see them that's why British teeth have gone to pot.

As you eloquently say; all medical establishments are run by private businesses with the sole aim of making a darn good profit at our expense of course.

My dentist is a very nice chap and the music is easy listening stuff....no choice, there is also a map on the ceiling and occasionally some of his holiday snaps...nothing to excite the patient too much!!!

I love the way you can put your thoughts and adventures down in an entertaining way...keep them coming LoreMaster

say it aint so you have to PAY for dental work? and the guy that worked for free did a better job?  lol i suppose we will have to start paying mechanics and plumbers next. smart a@# remarks aside that is a great story Peatle. i opt for classical gas when i go to the dentist.

10 gauge strings or maybe 11's i wouldn't go lighter than that or heavier. maybe the action needs to be lowered? take it to a guitar doctor, ask at your local music store.

thats true phil lighter strings can cause trouble. my taylor wont take any thing lighter than 12,s 11,s make it buzz not enough tension on the neck

Well then you need to make plans for next year! It's always the weekend after the change to Daylight Savings Time. 03/16/19 next year


it is on my bucket list, hope you guys have a great time.

I'm probably going to bring Tiny if I get the chance to do the fret work before I come. Otherwise, it'll be the Tak Jeff gave me. It's been feeling homesick.

As for you JJJ, bring whatever you like. I don't know what to tell you to bring.

Dirty Ed, I can't imagine a ChordieStock without a beach jam. I also can't recall Jeff ever having planned one. Those have been pretty organic so far. So I'd say if someone just picks up a guitar and says, "I'm going to the beach to watch the sunset and play music," that it will put anyone watching in mind of the fable of the Pied Piper.

the fried piper is probably more accurate.

Deadeye when I was younger drifting around from place to place your song reminded me of many a biker I met. Men on the run from relationship break ups.  Your chorus: is spot on. I enjoyed the way you did it on soundcloud.  Those words below of yours  bring back many a memory of Bikers I knew.
Girl I got nothing left to hold but the  throttle.
I got nothing left to kiss except the  bottle.

that is a pretty cool line

Very floyd-y. I'm surprised that none of the reviewers picked up on that.

Is that an Ibanez EX365 in the photo?

like a zeppelin/ Floyd  mix was my impression of the first one, with a little Ron Jeremy thrown in on the side.

enjoyed it Neo

i wanted thank every one who listen to and left comments on the songs i posted, i truly appreciate you taking the time to listen and give your opinions on them.
having said that i want to apologize to my chordie friends for taking so long to tell you that.
ive sat down many times to make a reply or post a comment on another thread and delete it after reading it back to myself, because it did not seem to come across as i intended it to. so i fall back on the old saying better to be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
so again my apologies and thanks

Not to "squash" the conversation, but I'm sure we all have "bean" waiting for the response from the head pickler here on Chordie.
My intent is not to "pepper" you with "sage" advice, just to "leek" out a few good lines.
"Zucchani(t)" just about anything if it is brined in vinegar (apparently  even eels- arrgh:(  )

I don't want to "beet" this thread so I will conclude by saying -

"Lettuce" all be thankful for pickles."
"Peas" be with you all !
So with that said - it's time to "end(ive)" this piece and  get the "Mojo" on !! smile
It certainly would be thre right thing to do - give him a "turn(ip) !

Jim  smile

p.s.  I hope my comments won't be the cause of any "rhubarbs" among us!

Quite possibly the oddest post I've ever read ... love it! lol

well apprently i have not been DILLegent on keeping up with  the post here. on formality im not much of a stickler but i do what i want as the head pickler.
now i dont want my friends to turn sour on me and it wouldnt be kosher if i didnt make an appearance. and now that i have scraped the bottom of the pickle barrel for something to say i will dilly dally about no more

congratulations on the promotion T F  and the 3000 mile stone may you post another 3grand and all your pickles be sweet( or dill if you prefer)

behold the power of the pickle *taps TF on both shoulders with the pickle scepter*

sorry about the juice on the shirt there buddy

been awhile since i written anything, and not sure where this came from just kinda happened. This is the first run at it i am going to redo it when i get some time to polish it up a bit

rainy day so i had some time to add the words

Em                                                    C
captain, Beau and Billy joe
laid down their rifles and they headed home
the war was over and the south was a flame
get back to Texas was their only aim
Am                                     Em
whats a rebel man to do
Am                                        G
the war was lost the south was through

captain beau looked at billy joe
kicked out the fire said get ready to go
climbed in the saddle and hit the trail
the echoes of the wounded they could hear them wail

the south had made its final stand
the carpet baggers roamed the land

the war had taken everything they owned
left them with only the skills they'd honed
no war to fight no farms to tend
no cows to raise no fences to mend

whats a rebel man to do
rob a train a bank or two

they made their plans and their minds were made
they'd rob a train at the point of a blade
Yankee gold and sweet revenge
the south will rise the message we send

whats a rebel man to do
the outlaw life they had to choose

past the point of no turning back
hid neath the trestle on the rail road track
the train was coming no time to wait
they spurred their horses on to meet their fate

a rebel yell did fill the air
the south will rise again i swear

the engines soot and smoke blocked the sun
over the yells you could hear the guns
the engineer and conductor lay dead
and captain beau with his shirt turning red

whats a rebel man to do
blood and death aint nothing new

Billy joe rode for the Indian nations
a place to hide or maybe salvation
the outlaw life always on the run
your only friend is a loaded gun

whats a rebel man to do
aint no way to start a new

whats a rebel man to do
rob a train or bank or two
