2. Remember how heavy my steel was when you helped me carry it? This new Carter S12U is a lot lighter.

Your right Dear, I should have asked first, I'm sorry!

What do you mean, I don’t need any guitars any more? That’s why I sold all my other guitars, so that I could get this new one! I have to have at least one! I might be old, but; I ain’t dead yet¡

I’ll put the ‘rest’ (he~he) of the money on our car~payments!

This was told to me a couple years ago by
Allan Thompson on the forium.

Honey can I buy a new set of Steel Strings?
And when the Steel Arrives...
But Honey I didn't know there was a Steel Guitar attached to those new strings.

(All in one sentence)"You don't mind if I buy another steel (or guitar) do you, I hope not because it will be delivered tomorrow." She usually just shrugs her shoulders and says "Whatever". She knows its futile to resist LOL. But she also knows I'm not going to buy something I really can't afford.

Looks like Allan Thompson needs a new set of strings again. His new Rains is suppost to be picked up @ The TSGA Conv. in March 06. Way to go Allan.
Sorry to hijack your thread Gary..

To paraphrase Dan Tyack--"Don't look at it as an expensive steel guitar, but like a cheap mid-life crisis". That's the best

Oh yeah, I've worn out Jeremey Moyer's line also...

Except even worse cause I have it bad for expensive, vintage microphones...[This message was edited by John Macy on 02 December 2005 at 08:46 AM.]

"Honey I've ordered a new steel, but I plan on selling my old guitars to pay for it" (of course you have your fingers crossed).

Just DON'T DO IT.

I do just like she does when I see her in a brand new dress. Oh baby, I've had that MSA Millenium for years I just don't wear it often.

I always found that a telegram from the new city you have taken up residence in is a good way.

"Oh, no dear. I didn't buy this steel. Ya see, I lent some money to this guy in Nashville, and he was so appreciative that he let me borrow his extra steel on long-term loan, y'see. No dear. No, I don't think you were born yesterday, dear. Wait! Put down that baseball bat! Aaaauuuughhh...."
