Yeah, right.  A good guitar and a sippy cup.  It doesn't get better than that

You know, I've had about 8 or 9 guitars in my life and I've always given the old one to some youngster wanting to learn.  The last few years, though, I have been keeping two on hand just for shucks and grins.  Now if I get a new one, I keep the two newest and give away the third one.  Anywhere I can help bring music into someones life.  As for a frayed G string, whoa!!  I'd post a pic of me playing in a frayed G string, but I would probably be banned. 

Yeah, just lay the guitar flat on your lap and count from top to bottom.  That's one smart teacher.  It's all relative.
That is if you are right handed, of course.  The guitar is a strange instrument when it comes to string layout and chord diagrams.

Ah, you look fine.  And you look like you were enjoying yourself.  Of course, if it was really Baccardi, you probably sounded better than ever.

I like Roger Miller.  I had never heard River in the Rain before.  I like it.  We used to play Cug a Lug in the car for the grandkids when they were little.  They still love that song.

Hot damn, you're a genius, all of you.  Thanks again.

Hey, thanks topdown.  Yep, that's me.  Is it any different posting your avatar?  I noticed on avatar, the browse takes me to my computer.

Sgt Pepper for me.  It is the one and only album that has always stuck in my mind.

Oh, him, he's just another one of those people who were born with a guitar in their hands.  Probably never practiced a day in his life.  You name a song and he just starts playing it from memory.  Imagine that!  It must be easy to do because he's making it look easy.

I know for a fact that lots of alcohol makes me sing better.  And louder.  Everyone always cheers me on. 

Well, All1, you sound great.  I do the same thing once in a while.  Good for the soul.

Fortunately, I have a pretty good voice.  Sang in high school choir and quartet for 4 years.  I can hit the notes right most all the time.  One of the things I find myself doing is when I sing a part of the song that is suddenly too high, I automatically drop an octave without a problem.  Roy Orbison did this quite a bit in his songs.  Anyway, singing is not my problem.  Keeping the strumming going evenly with my singing is sometimes strained.
