The photograph below was taken about two months ago after I reorganized this corner of the studio. There’s a lot of stuff in this photograph, so I thought a little guitar quiz (after all, I am the Professor) might be in order. The first OFC member who correctly answers the following four questions about this photograph will be awarded a small trinket (an extra guitar book I recently purchased, and no, not the Ovation History book) in appreciation for demonstrating their outstanding eyesight. Good luck!

How many . . .

(A) actual guitars, whole or in part, by manufacturer and model, appear in the photograph?

(B) pictures, photographs or other likenesses of a guitar, whole or in part, appear in the photograph?

(C) words “guitar”, whole or in part, singular or plural, appear in the photograph?

(D) times does a guitar brand or model name, whole or in part, forward or backwards, excluding names found on an actual guitar, appear in the photograph?

Because they have Lucas refrigerators. Any British car owner knows that one.

Because that's how ale is supposed to be served!

You people who suffered the economic aftermath of 'prohibition' wouldn't understand.

Woody was correct on the number of guitars, but incorrect on the make/models. He was exactly 66.67% in the remaining areas. He earns an A- for effort, primarily for responsiveness.

". . Which begs the question, why do Brits drink warm beer? . ."

Because their beer if far superior to ours, serving it at room temperature further enhances the flavour, and serving it "ice cold" is the only way that people can choke down the goat piss that IS American beer (with the exception of Sierra Nevada IPA).

I thought it was cause they hadn't yet developed ice-making technology.

So...

this Saturday's Dinner date with my Bride was at Silver City Brewery in Silverdale, WA. In harmony with the offered St. Paddy's menu I had a "Black and Tan" which was a Joanah's Stout pour into a Copper Mountain Bock.

Chilled.

Smoove...

I just love how threads get hijacked and sometimes never get steered back on course!

Woody, I would say due to lack of effort on everyone else's part, you get a 2nd, 3rd, 4th and possibly 5th chance at winning!
