Earl, I was going to make it a poll, but I had no idea who to pick for options, other than a few obvious guitar players, to make it a good poll.

 

I'm surprised you consider Richie Sambora a good guitar player. No one ever really mentions him.

 

Sambora is a good player. Very good, imo. But not great.

 

 

I agree! Very good.

Earl where the hell have you been hiding?? :smoke:

 

Dude! My life has been crazy!! Lots of work, concerts and dating many women!! Also went to the A's WiId Card Game and watched my baseball team choke!!

 

Going to relax this weekend and chill! Hope you are well!

Going to retire Pat in four years. Going to San Diego and from there I will commute to Maui.

The Doobies RULE!!!

 

Whoops! Tom Johnston

 

Damn I hate typos.

 

Hahaha! It's ok Pat. I'm not that stupid. Some women I meet are actually well off and don't just use a man for their money. There are good women out there in the world. Believe me, I've had my share of many gold digging women. They are a disgrace and they aren't even worth it man.

 

I've met women online, on a walk around a lake. At concerts, at bars that have cover bands. (bar women are really rare for me.) i am very clean and don't need an STD or HIV or Hep C or a cold sore outbreak on my lips.

 

I'm very picky dude.

 

Again, I'm living my life in reverse. The older I get the easier it becomes to meet a woman. I would prefer to still be married, but hey, that's life baby.

 

I think it's all about confidence and not the income you make. Remember I took it in the financial arse Pat and I'm still having fun.

 

It will never be one or the other!

 

Women come in and out like the wild winter winds in Wisconsin. LOL!!

 

I will never settle Pat. Too many lonely fish in the human sea.

 

Never give up Pat.

 

I'm a catch.

Two chicks wanted to try and come over tonight.

I actually am tired of going out every night and need a break.

 

Perhaps I am a fool, but I'm listening to the new Steel Panther right now drinking a beer typing on here instead.

 

Shit I'm way off topic, Sorry "L."

 

Satchel is one of the greatest guitar players on the Earth.

 

"FEEL THE STEEL!"

I guess there is no good explanation. Or, at least not one “a certain person” has the character or courage to provide.

 

He ought to at least clarify what or how he meant it.

 

I PMed him about it. He read it, and just like with my post to him out here, he ignored it. He does have a habit of avoiding the tough questions.

 

I'll give him a little more time to answer.

Maybe I'm wrong, but to my way of thinking, we are all guests in your home.

 

If you ask something from one of us, we owe you the courtesy of an acknowledgement and answer.

I wasn't going to post even this on, and in this topic thread because it hasn't been, and wasn't on topic. I have, and still can read on what's been said on, and in threads. There wasn't, and hasn't been anything wrong including problems, and issues, with the comma key on any of my computers. I think, and feel there wasn't anything hard to answer. This is for you the administrator, who might be, and is reading this, too. For answering you, I've sent an e-mail back. I wasn't doing any ignoring, and avoiding. Edited by Derek19

Totally true, and ironic, story.

 

My SON had a hockey game today. Behind the net a little weasel hit from behind and then tried to skate off like he did nothing. My SON absolutely leveled him in the corner about a minute later. He got a penalty, but I was proud of him.

 

Derek, you’re right. My son was off topic. You shouldn’t have mentioned him. And you and I both know you wouldn’t have the balls to mention him if you were standing in front of me.

Hockey’s brutal, and I’m impressed with anyone who can stay on the ice, let alone hold their own against other players looking for a fight.

While it’s preferred that posts stay on topic, going off topic is usually okay for a few posts. In fact, not wanting to go off topic is not an excuse for not explaining the meaning of your previous post when questioned about it. Like I said before, this isn’t a super serious forum, it’s just a place for fellow Rush fans to enjoy each other’s company.
