Location: Avondale, AZ | 25 yrs ago today I almost died with my Viper. I was 7 days from being 21 years old. I was in a roll over accident with a 4WD. I was driving my brother's Ford. It flipped and dumped the load out the back. My Viper fell out of the bed still in its case. I split my head open to the skull. My first question was: 'Where is my guitar?'
I barely lived, but my guitar came away without a scratch. The case was missing a couple of hindge pins, and had a few scratches. |

"Hey, watch this!" I always thought the last words were spoken by the passenger : "Betcha can't".

I thought that that was considered an "occupation" down there . . . To quote Clint Eastwood, "Dying ain't much of a living, boy"
....and though we have covered this ground before, the most common last words of rednecks are, "Hold my beer!" |

Old Liver Jones is my blues name. However, my liver is old and I do Jones. |
