Tell her from a distance that at least it isn't a $20,000+ Harley like all your friends are buying.

Hey, it's such a great pedal steel, I'll ALWAYS be able to get my money back if (ha! ha!) I go to sell it!!

My policy is, don't ask and don't tell.

Baby, I just read on the Forum that George Strait's steel guitarist is quitting after this year and I know all his songs. All I need is a new guitar and me and you could be on the road with that old homely guy next year!!!

This is real, right now.
"Honey, please don't get me anything for Christmas. I just want a new Carter in January. I have most of it saved up already. OK?" Wife: Okay dear, as long as we get a new driveway in the spring.

I still reckon a previous post from "Skip"?

"Get rid of the wife and you can have as many steel guitars as you want"

Worked good for me........next one could be a !Fessy"?

oh, this is just an Investment, I have no plan on keeping it....

or you can always try this..

" Hey, chill...you bought new Shoes..I saw them in the closet "....

Honey, I bought a new bar and it comes with a free Steel guitar, the bar was 2500.00 but the steel is FREE, and have i told you lately how much i love your long blonde hair.

She said go ahead and take the deal, make sure it has free shipping, sell the guitar for 2500.00, and that i would have a free 2500.00 bar,Hmmmmm i guess the other 9 won't work either.[This message was edited by Roger Francis on 03 December 2005 at 09:56 AM.]

" Honey, I hear there's a new mall opening. What do you say we go try out the new Visa that just came in the mail? I was just looking in the closet and I just don't think the 148 pairs of shoes is going to be enough to get you through this winter. Oh, by the way, there's a smoking deal on a new Zum on the forum." Or guys just remember " It's easier to beg for forgiveness than to ask for permission"

For Bob Carlucci: Your plan won't work. You don't know where her romantic episodes are occurring.

Bruce Meyer · Post by **Bruce Meyer** » 3 Dec 2005 9:49 pm

Buy all your guitars the same color and hope she doesn't pay attention to details. I can testify that this works, sometimes.

Honey, I had to move all the furniture down stairs to make room for our new furniture set comming tomorrow, Desert Rose steel Guitar home furnishings will be delivering it.

Box? What big box? Oh, that one. Honey, remember when I bought my last pedal steel guitar, and you sald that if I ever bought another guitar, you'd be filing for a divorce?

Well, where do you want me to sign?

"Im gonna sell all my other guitars ,after, i get this one"

Post by **Joey Ace** » 4 Dec 2005 7:50 am

I couldn't resist. This is exactly like the one I was playing when I first met you, the best day of my life....

HowardR · Post by **HowardR** » 4 Dec 2005 8:05 am

Honey, I'd really like to buy a new guitar.

Oh wait, I just remembered that I'm not married.

Problem solved!
