I have not played a note on a steel for 4 weeks.
I reckon I will lose the plot?
In fact. I may have lost it tonight.
Steak was ok though. Thanks coca cola for making me
a stone heavier this last month. Ha.
I can see an angry b0b popping up soon to move me |

David:
I do think we all enjoy the odd bit of useless banter from time to time. Most other musical forums I participate in have a "lounge" of some sort for football comments, "my cat died" etc. Problem is they get hard to police because some nit wit always wants to round the corners off the "No Politics or Religion" rules.
Sad. Though I've seen football threads go deeply psychotic too.
In one of your vids I see somebody handing Big John a glass of something deeply red. As a matter of fact you had a bit of a glassy eye to you too come to think of it! 
Anyway, was that Port? Or some specie of Burgundy. Beats Coca Cola probably, though not much better at the waist line.

| Thanks David for giving me pondering material on the statement thanking Coca Cola for making you a stone heavier. I'll have to cypher that one while at the cement pond. Lets see, 2 stones goes into 3 stones 6.75 times if the humidity is correct. |

Nope. I'm not sure where, but I think there's a decimal error someplace. But, alas, like the poor bass player who's had a tuning head accidentally turned on him, I just can't tell where it is. Normally I'd call an old friend who's a genuine Rocket Scientist from United Space Alliance, formerly United Technologies. He can perform such calculations whilst extremely drunk. In the mean time, we'll have to rely on Mister Miller's faulty arithmetic as the gospel.
Another point being a pair of sixes rarely round up tp a 7 amd a 5. But I'll lay down a three for two points.

16 ounces = 1 pound
14 pounds = 1 stone
8 stones = 1 hundredweight
20 hundredweights = 1 ton
Oh by the way, 20 ounces = one pint...

See you in Dallas in March...Your South Texas Friend...Brian |

| David : I understand bOb has became a man of "self employment" now and feels a huge weight has been lifted from his shoulders. Maybe he will mellow out now and leave you here but, just to be safe, might offer him some of that steak next time - |
