It's just that sometimes they can offer information & perspective that is just to much of a PITA to re-type.

Hey, if no one's seen The Slipkid Manifesto for a few months it's always good to bring it up to the front page again. MTC

 

 

 

did Cliff slip in and drop a stinker?

Odd that you mention that... For some reason I printed out some of those old gems before they were deleted.
I have a small collection in a 3 ring binder.

Is there something wrong with me?
You guys would tell me.... right?

Bear in mind the thread started as a contest to caption an ad showing a woman embracing an Ovation guitar...

Lol...no guitar forum in the universe like the OFC! You guys were/are crazy! You only think I guessed wrong! That's what's so funny! I switched glasses when your back was turned! Ha! You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders: The most famous of which is "never get involved in a land war in Asia," but only slightly less well-known is this - "Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line! Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! Ha, ha, ha..."

The Ovation relevant photo of the first thread can be found in the web archive.
Maybe the wrong thread but it is still a nice photo. Necessary to understand some of the posts.

Thank You TPA, I am reading that thread now (through the tears and snorts), and now the comments make allot more sense!

Many Thanks!!

From a woman's perspective, when I see it, I see:

Curl up with a good Ovation

or...

Let Ovation touch those secret places in you,
Heart, Soul, Spirit

or...

Cuddle up to a Roundback - Ovation!

Thanks for the memories! I was luck enough to pick up some vintage USA Ovation branded string tubes a while back on ebay, so I'm set for a while. They weren't cheap, but they're way better than the imports.

This is just not going easy for you, is it Slip...?

If I'm looking to post a link, I don't use the quick reply. Hit the Reply button in the last post or at the top of the thread and then you simply put in the entire url. It'll show as a link. I'm sure there are other ways as well but that always works for me.
