I was trying to figure out what the heck was in the box from Witco...









I have no idea what the heck I did to deserve this, but THANKS!

If ya just woulda "been there" like ya was 'spossed to it could have been presented all proper like.
.
'Zilla... among other things, the time and effort you have put into the calendars, year in and year out, has been simply outstanding.

All that matters is that you're out of the Cowboy Chords area. Thanks for making this place just a little bit better for all.

Well, there was gonna be this whole big presentation thing nad I had a speech prepared. Brad Davis was going to play "For He's a Jolly Good Fella". we even had confetti in the rafters ready to fall when I made the presentation.

But plans change and we had to scramble a bit. I grabbed the box from behind the shop. Contacted Brad but he was home and your address was at his work. Finally found your addy on somebody's iphone and dashed off to the UPS store between lessons at Indigo. Sort of a whirlwind and after shipping realized that there was absolutely no indication in the box what the hell this was or what it was for. Hopefully you figured it out.

Congrats for being one of the steady forces that keeps the OFC moving along and for pumping some wind in her sails with your outstanding calendar work.

Dave

So, was it the thrust thing?

Now you need to add YOUR version of Smoke On The Water to the archives. Played on the provided instrument, of course.

Thanks for all the kind words. And thanks for the award, I'm surprised and humbled.

Sorry to make you guys scramble to ship this to me. This really gives YSBT a whole new meaning for me!

As for the calendar, people send me beautiful pictures of guitars, I get to design something fun and I don't have to shop for a calendar any more. What's the big deal? I really just do this for myself. :D

The OFC award is a wood box... now that's ironic.
