Location: 6 String Ranch | I guess I'll be the fifth guy to get there, and it took me the longest of the five to get there. I'm not going to post black like Cliff did, or proclaim my love for Taylors like Moody did. I forgot what Jeff did and Dave hit 5000 twice and had to change his name every time.
Maybe I should have saved the Goals post for the 10,000 but it just didn't work out that way. Maybe for the big one I'll do absolutly nothing special, we'll see.......... |

| Go for the political post with a twist of religion and photo's of the new Taylor collection !
Did I say that out loud?
Congrats by the way this is a really funny and sometimes even an informative site, there are a lot of cool people involved here. You are one of our biggest celebrities and I am sure I speak for everyone by saying were honored to have you so involved in here.

Location: 6 String Ranch | Goals are important.
I just finished a three day golf tournament and really stunk it up out there. Gotta work on the game some more.
My goal is to be a single digit handicap and I'm 14 now. This applies to both golf and guitar.
Got some work to do on both to reach the single digits.
See you at the driving range....
I'll be the guy with the guitar sticking out of the bag.
It's just appropriate that #10,000 be about golf. That, guitars and breathing, what else is there????
Well, yeah, that too, so there are four important things in life. |

I had a day out with the wife and son at the golf course, and stunk it up as well. I used to be at single digit handicap, (golf) but not even close now. |

I'll just say that I have not seen any other message or fanclub board that even comes close to what goes on here.
Happy 10k Bill.
I'll admit I had a faint hope that we'd hear that marketing rant. I guess a cooler head prevailed. |

Location: Tennessee | You know, when you think about the 10K milestone it is truly remarkable. Who would have thought six years ago that this liitle place would have come so far or touched so many people. But here we are. And Bill, you certainly have added a LOT to the mix here, and will continue to, but I've really enjoyed watching the metamorphasis from builder to true player. You're wearing butterfly wings well. The only downside for me is that you gave up talking about fins for SUVs. ;) |
