    I'm going to order a Butter Cream Bongo Lefty as soon as Big Poppa gives the word. I've got Bass Central on speed dial, and I'll wake Beaver Felton if I get that word in the middle of the night!

    It's a very cool color, even my 95 Toyota pickup truck would look in that color...

    In fact I'm one of the whitest humans you'll ever meet, my skin tone is very close to Butter Cream...

    Hey I've got an idea, if Big Poppa will give the shop my Lefty Bongo order now and let me get one of the first Lefty's, I gladly wear one of those tempory tattoo's with an EBMM logo anywhere on my body of THEIR choice! Just think of the promotional value! I'm shaped a lot like a Bongo, we could paint a a pair of humbuckers on my beer gut and knobs on the side of my belly, one of my sholders is lower than the other, and paint Bongo on the left side of my fat face and EBMM on the other! How about it?

    My final Bongo order decision is this..
    Lefty ButterCream HH 4 string with Tort/pickguard

    I can't wait!

    So what you're really saying is that you want a left handed Bongo?

    Didn't catch that the other 20 posts about left hand Bongos...

    *NEWSFLASH* This just in... Sterling Ball halts the production of left handed Bongos to spite Psycho Ward for posting about it every other flipp'n day

    CHILL OUT...I'm sure that when summer Namm comes, that's when you'll be able to order your beloved left handed Buttercream Bongo.

    Can I get an Amen?

    Relax Mingus, he's gotta get it out some way or the other during the long wait

    Otherwise he'll spend all his hard-earned bongomoney on psychiatric services to help him overcome all his frustration, and then when the lefty bongos finally are available he can't afford one!!

    We surely can't let this happen to one of our fellow EBMM-brethrens..

    Apparently Andrew missed my conceptual “running joke”, I was just having fun, didn’t mean to piss anyone off. At least I’m not whining about “when will it get here…” And I’m not going to either, once it’s ordered the next mention of it will be the “It’s here thread” with the traditional photo/evidence postings and the oooh/aaah follow up.





    But for the record I want a Lefty Bongo Butter Cream, tort pick guard, HH, 4 STRING!



    Sorry,

    So I guess you can joke....and I can't... 'cause I'm Mean Mr. Mingus all of a sudden. You all take me way to serious when I'm trying to joke around. By all means...keep hijacking threads with your hilarious anecdotes about lefty bongos
    I'll hold you to that whining thing though. We'll see what song you are singing when that 5th month of waiting comes around.

    I reread you original post, plus a few other remarks you made toward me, sounded like you’re piss at me so I tried to apologize. Now you are pissed, I guess my apologies and your humor get misunderstood sometimes. I’m truly sorry, I meant no offense and I’ve valued your input here especially with my Bongo selection.

    Its cool man, I'm sorry that I can come off as a jerk sometimes. I really dont' mean to but I did take that "whining" comment as a bit of a swipe though. But anways I can't stay mad at any of my ebmm bros...we family. Geez, sometimes we bicker about silly things.

    A big SORRY to any and all of you that have been offended by any of my coments.

    And just like that, all is good in the world again!

    For the record - I got, and continue to be entertained by the "conceptual" humor and never thought the whining got to be "that" bad!

    Beyond EBMM Bros, there are those among us soon to be Buttercream Bros...





    Uh... Sorry... Not sure I like the way that sounds!
