You seem to know just about everything...or at least have something to say about everything.

Who was it that said "I am not young enough to know everything?"

Well, I don't know everything, but do have an opinion or something to say about almost everything.

And it wasn't me that said that. :)

I didn't do a single prank for April Fool's Day. :( I woke up early & had to drive to New Orleans for 2 fiddle gigs. It was quite a long 16-hour day. :eek:



I hit the big 5-0 this April, I don't want to grow up! Can one be a 50 year old teenager?
Absolutely!! I'm only 31, but I'm planning on never growing up.


.... so what, I'll just run up a lot debt buying EBMM basses, living high on life and leave a fat corpse.... um, don't tell my banker! :D
:D :D :D :D

Larry I must say you are an inspiration to me, your change since I seen you at the open house is truly amazing! If I could do what you have done I might have a better outlook on life brother.

Can you still drink beer? :D

I can still drink beer but I can only drink one case at a sitting now. :eek: :D

Really I don't drink nearly as much now as I was before. I'll drink 3 or so light beers at a gig and I usually only have one nightcap most every night. That's about the extent of my drinking now.

BTW, you can do what I have done. If you get good and ready, let me know and I'll show you the way. But you have to be extremely determined or there's no use in starting. But I will say that if you have the willpower, the rest is really easy.

I don't know if you've seen this pic, but here's one of me and my lovely wife that was taken about a month ago.

I love that picture, Larry. This is the second time it's given me a great big smile.

I didn't do anything because everyone around here was flu-ey w/no sense of humor. My mom used to ALWAYS get me. Now she's retired. The kid checking me out at Trader Joe's is a different story. He said he and his girlfriend, who also works there, called in sick at 3:15 for their 4 p.m. shifts. :D

He also rents a condo from his parents. He says it's pretty nice. He called his mom in the a.m. asked her what he should do -- "something" had sprung a leak and there was water everywhere and the hardwood floors were buckling. I thought that was pretty funny -- it was a parent AND landlord April Fool's in one. Plus, it's unlikely that your parent would evict you for it. I think this guy has some potential. But I don't want him working in my office.

Chuck - do what my Mum does - hit 40 and start counting backwards!

She actually started counting backwards at 35... so by her logic she is now only slightly older than me :)

My Mom did the same thing! :D

I'm afraid to lie about my age, someone might cut me in half and count the rings! :eek:

Chuck, how can I respond to that? :) There IS no response! Bless you :D Just know that we love you as much as you love us - one of these days we'll meet up and I'll give you a big hug (provided you have your clothes on of course..) ;)

Chuckie - that age thing is easy. This month is the 13th anniversary of your 37th birthday! :)

I do understand where Chuck is coming from on that 50th birthday thing. I mean it is really nice to be younger than Jack. :D

Absolutely Psycho Ward. I will be 50 in June. The only difference is ... 1. closer to death, therefore more reason to let'er rip 2. slower to recovery from injuries, including self-inflicted alcohol damage 3. a bit slower and "stiffer" (you know what I mean). 4. more bass experience.

I'm 49 ... 18 with 31 years experience.

Actually, it's nice to be Canadian ... I'm 50 US = 39 Canadian!
