Nothing that a few hours on Google and a good glass or two of Kendall Jackson can't settle.
Oh... if you're interested to see pictures of this guy's band - Code Blue - it seems that maybe he's got an expensive divorce going on now (I can only hope) and he wasn't able to pay his hosting fees for his band's site: codeblue.ws While the domain is still registered, the site is A.W.O.L. now (it was there a month ago).
Anyway... you can see pics if you go to the Lying Cheat's yahoo profile: http://profiles.yahoo.com/ktm_scott and click on the "view my photos" link. He did have some cool equipment that he restored.
Feel free send this guy some "interesting" email for me. :) He probably could use a few "rays of sunshine" flown up his you-know-what again... LOL
In all sincerity, it was really a shame. This all happened in February (Happy Valentines day to the wife and me!) ... It's been long enough now that it no longer hurts - but with everything else I had going on, it was terrible to be victimized by someone like this.
Just another reason for me to get back into guitar playing - I needed something good for my soul to get past some of this stuff. |

Your guitar is still a live auction on eBay. A little over an hour to go; what happens if it goes to completion and someone else snags it? |

The last I talked to the seller (on Friday), he was going to figure out how to end the auction - but I'm thinking maybe he got busy with the holiday weekend.
I sent him an email last night (after talking to the music store guy)so that he would know 100% that there wouldn't be any kind of future legal hassle for him for selling this to me.
I think I'll give him another hour (still early in Hawaii) and give him another call.
I didn't want to have to bid on this thing - but if it's still a live auction, and I don't reach him, I still may have to, huh? Just to help him cover his butt.
I really don't think he'd let me down on this - but I was surprised to still see it up last night.
Aloha Tim already told me he won't be bidding more on it - and his bid is not meeting the seller's reserve anyway. |

Just talked to the seller - he ended the auction early so there wouldn't be any last minute issues.
I'll get it in a few weeks - after I scrape up some more G.A.S. money.
Heckuva nice guy. I'm sure grateful for this.
And thanks again, Tim...
Happy dancin' in Colorado. |

Location: Denver Colorado | I already told him about this group and this discussion that's been going down. :)
He told me this morning they just had a death in the family - so it's not a good time for him.
I'm very grateful for the fact that in the middle of his own personal stuff going on that he would do this nice thing for me.
I'll send him a invite to this group again soon. |

Unless you're trying to get your post count up. Hey Sally, that guy looks like a tool. You can do MUCH better than that. Take me for instance...uh...wait, I'm married too... |
