Boy, that is super-human. I'd love to hear Bobby and Mike Sigler do some twinin together. Wouldn't that knock yer hat in the creek ?????

Brother Ron, You're still wrapped up pretty tight. As good as ever. Keep it up. A true fan here !!!

I think that's the best clip of Jimmy that I've ever seen.
Is there any way you could get permission to post something by Curly Chalker ?

Moving along but nothing is happening !

Jimbo my brother, I just now read the heartbreaking news of "Pops" leaving us. I just got back online and read the news after being off for a time. Rest assured that you were a good and loving son when you were needed so desperately. We feel that he was our Pops as well and grieve along si...

Sorry for the terrible news Norm. Your family will be in my prayers.

About the nails, Alan is right if talking about a left-handed picker.
The other way is right if you're right-handed.
but what if you're ambi-nail-dextrous ?

Man, what a waste of youtube space !!!

Wow ! Gerald, those off-the-cuff deals can be the best. I really enjoyed that one !

Bishop Ron, I remember the gravely voiced Joe Cocker well. Yours is a beautiful rendition. I can feel the love from the strings. You are an INSPIRATION to us for sure. I wish I had the wherewithall to modify that Carter for you. I would do it in a heartbeat. I am so blessed to be able to call you my...

Me, but I've got an electric wheelchair !

Well, I was in radio for about 20 years handling every job from managing to cleaning toilets. Mostly I was a D.J. doing morning drive and some overnights. Before that I was a rent-a-cop with the Pinkerton Agency, obtaining the rank of Sargeant.

Roger, It should be a valuable lesson learned. It's not unpardonable to make such a mistake. The lesson to learn is to learn from our mistakes so we won't repeat them. Along the same lines, I've always felt that the only stupid question is one that you don't ask. You sound like a guy with "much...

Jimmy,
Sorry for your loss. You seem prepared for the worst but it is still a shock. I know that God will comfort you at this difficult time.

whereas if you get your steel back for free (and it still works or is reparable) then you will be a very happy man, ready to buy a round of drinks for all of us!

Wow Barry, for that kind of money, drinks for over 8,000, you could buy a brand new steel couldn't you ?

Watched an interview on the tube this morning featuring Tanya Tucker and one of her comments raised a question in my mind. She said that there were very few song stylists these days.Not like singers of the past who were good stylists as well as good singers. It got me to thinking that this is someth...

Well, Tanya was on the Imus show this morning as scheduled and did 3 songs from her new CD. Wine me up,San Antonio Stroll, and Swinging Doors. She looks real good and didn't have to show skin as the newer girls do. She has the voice and presence to carry it off without all the stage hype that they u...
