To get away from too much political BS, here's another that gets me going.  I don't really get mad about it, but it kinda makes me wonder.  People who have so much stuff in their garage that there is no room for the car.  My intention here is not to make you mad if you ae one of the culprits.  It just makes me wonder why?

Now the RAm thing might be what I need.  It still runs slow and even videos on YouTube keep stopping and starting a lot.  I do have a thing tat comes up often that says something about memory.  I'll bet thats it.  Memory is cheap, maybe I'll check into that

Russell, you are starting to look and sound a little professional.  You're leaving me in the dust.

OK, I follow you beamer.  Here's a mellow little tune from an obscure band I have never heard of.

Listen to some of the Doors for ideas.  "The End" is a good one.

6-5-4-3-2-1, top to bottom.  Is that what you mean?

Slow, mellow and sounds great Jim.  I don't believe I've heard this song before.

Nice guitar beamer.  You deserve it.  Respect it and play the hell out of it.

I agree with beamer.  Do what you want and live life.  I am sorry to hear about your friend.  It is always a sad thing being confronted by cancer. Life does seem unfair much of the time.

I never could get the sound good on my 920 either. That's why I bought a separate mic from the start. It's lousy. You sounded great on your video.

It's amazing how stressed I get trying to get them right.  As I work on them I realize I'm white knuckling the pick.  Like it's trying to escape or something.  Just one more thing to remember.  Fingertips, bend knuckles, move thumb, the right notes to play, finger right behind the fret, keep time, hold the pick comfortably but firmly and without stress, alternate picking direction.  It's enough to drive a person to drink, which is one of the more pleasant bits about it.   

I've set a timer and work for five minutes playing the scale up and back in a steady loop for five minutes, take a few moments break, then repeat that twice more.  That gives me fifteen minutes of scale practice per session.  As I get better, I'll move that up, but for now fifteen minutes on scales per day will have to do.

It's a lot like golf then.  Too may things to remember.

Get well.

Under different circumstances.  And your English is good.  It is a very hard language to learn.

That one is marginally better than your other one.  Keep at it beamer.  I wonder where the younger crowd is hanging out.  You should get some bites from them.  Sorry.  I will however, listen to this all day, as opposed to RAP.  Don't start a RAP section beamer.

I read this this morning.  I have a feeling he's not going to be around much longer.  He's getting old and has high mileage.  It will be a shame.

Sorry to hear it, Amy, but glad you shared with your friends.  Nothing wrong with that.  Sometimes friends help ease your pain, if only a little bit.
