seems like he was about to

the excretion of fecal matter can be quite a turn on, constipation or diarrhea notwithstanding...

I could change my mind by the time I get to the Blueboard or ME3, but now I'm saying I hope it doesn't happen...I doubt that the reunion is happening simply because Al, Brian, Mike and Bruce wanna do it...Mike will wanna use HIS guys, Brian will wanna use HIS team probably--Instant Conflict...it sounds like the Ultimate Logistic Nightmare...Blondie? Ricky?  don't forget to include Daryl Dragon...

How I spent my Saturday...Pushed a bunch of shopping carts around, pushed a guy in his wheelchair back to his apartment--the only thing harder than pushing him uphill was trying to keep him from rolling DOWNhill...Had a gig, I'm part of an acoustic trio, among other musical endeavors...A semi legend in one neighborhood, the bottom of the food chain in the other...it's a question of balance I guess...

with ya all the way, H&V...I've learned to say "single chese plain", but I still check it 'fore I leave...The only thing Wendy's is good for is the Frosty...

As I've said before (and I'm glad I'm not the only person who thinks like this)
If there is only one artist who is allowed to say "I've given you LOTS, I'm tired,
let me rest a bit..." it's Brian Wilson.He should be able to do what HE wants,
not what WE want...

Doesn't Neil Young have one of those pick ups on Ol' Black ? (neck position)

It may be too late,  but don't get me wrong--I LOVE the Byrds ! But La Grange on a 12-string ? I would say no...Purple Haze ? No...ANY Blues tune ? a BIG  NO...

It's been a long day, I'm tired, and ready to cry..."worms", I had one of those in honey blonde with a maple neck...forced to sell it...all three pick ups at once--VERY NICE IMO   the single coils were a bit noisy, but NOW it comes with "Noiseless" pick ups...My friend Roy still has the white Rick bass he bought in '75 or so...plays in a country band with it !! Had a Mexican Tele Deluxe, sold it...   Had a late 70s Tele w/Bigsby...sold it    And finally, had a 1965 Fender Electric XII (paid $200, traded it [and a mid 70s Epiphone semi solid 335 lookin ax] for the Tele, got $100 for it) There's only so much you can do with an electric XII, but it was my favorite          

Was gonna ask why do it in the first place, but maybe it's the beginning of the end of hostilities...

The Comedy Central show was beyond hysterical...Did a Mitch inpression a couple of days later--an accidental,spur of the moment kinda thing--nailed it, broke the wife up...Saw him Live in DC, not so much as a chuckle from either of us,  dunno why...thanx for the quotes, BTW...

what's so great about "rowdy and rough" ? Just an excuse to be mean and ugly for the sake of free speech...

Don't think I've ever sung a BB tune standing up...Almost always in the car, with a scrunched up diaphragm...Need to warm up first, drink some soda (NO DAIRY!)...Otherwise, they're all pretty tough...

that  sounds about right to me mikea...It's the fuckin Internet,I'd wager that half the people on it aren't who they claim to be,the Internet is FULL of wackos (It takes one to know one)...In spite of "her" avatar (which Charles sez he didn't notice) I wouldn't be too surprised to find out that "Laurie" was a lonely over weight white guy with little reason for living (like me)...Except there may be people who have met her IN PERSON, but how would we know for sure...I know I'm contributing to the sh*t but "BLOWN OUT OF PROPORTION" barely scatches the surface...

Try to look at it the way I (as a gutarist) do--Clapton can't do what EVH can do, but Eric's doin fine, probably doesn't have to worry about geting a REAL job    Keep at it...

WOW!  What in the WORLD  happened here?!!  
I guess I have never wandered over to this side of the schoolyard before, I usually just post on the on topic stuff.  I had no idea there was another Smile board or a sandbox.  

Trust me Carly, you don't wanna know...maybe that's what they mean by "ignorance is bliss"

"schoolyard" is right...

a decent night's sleep makes all the difference...two good posts, I plan on stayin...It's not so much that "what happened" was insignificant, although in the bigger scheme of things it might be...it's just that the SS board is so vast,I'm sure there are posters on it who have little if any idea that the Sandbox exploded,sh*t flyin everywhere...

WE NEED THE SANDBOX

a lock down SEEMS like censorship,but then again, maybe not...or to get to the heart matter--f*** it, let's move on...

I guess the biggest problem with any bulletin board is that it's run by, visited by, and used by human beings...And you know how nutty the human race is...judging by my dog's behavior, there is lunacy in the animal kingdom, too...

in America a man is innocent until PROVEN guilty...innocent men go to jail and guilty  men go free,consider this the beginnig of an apology...Still, in this day and age one has to be ESPECIALLY careful...for instance-what was called discipline when I was a kid is called child abuse now...what was called flirting is sometimes called harassment...

if by "Laurie" you mean "LaurieArleen",then I might, I said might owe Charles an apology..."Provocative" is in the eye of the beholder...And I DO appreciate the fact that the Christian inside him has kept a fairly low profile,'til now...

[IF]

and just to prove I can be fair, if IF IF the female in question is who I think it COULD be, the avatar itself could be considered provocative...

now I have to decide whether I should stay or not...THE LAST THING I NEED TO HEAR ABOUT IS A SUPPOSEDLY CHRISTIAN MAN BEHAVING LIKE JIM BAKER or JIMMY SWAGGERT...Let me guess, God told you she really wants it...

ask chuck.

what did you say?

All will be explained, later tonight I hope.

assuming of course that you tell the absolute truth,and nothing less...but then how will we I know ?

It's sometimes very difficult to have to relate to five other people, but i'm extremely thankful that I have them and their voices.  There are many times when I feel like it could be over, and then I would stop, but then I wouldn't know what else to do.

I think the occasional tension and difficulty is ultimately worth it, for the glory of collaborative creation.  Not that I can remember what that's like.

After what I just went thru 2 wks ago, I would say it's easier on my nervous system to be a freelancer...So for now, I am...
