That would be "Thanks for YOUR efforts". I have the same trouble hitting all the notes when I'm playing too!

Schroeder.... Over here there have recently been several "news" articles about how you Brits are just "too nice". As a society you guys accept a much lower quality of personal service than we hyper-active Yanks would ever put up with.
The articles discussed your overall love of standing in a que.
I thought about e-mailing you the articles. If I find them, I will.
So... It's time for our Queen serving friends to step up and demand that you be treated better by the business' that want you to spend your hard earned money.
I want you to take up this rightous cause just after you get your calendar.

I don't think everyone heard you. You have to type louder.

OK. That'll be fine. No complaints from me. I'm sure the calendar will be here by Easter.
If any of you impatient Yanks want to go to war on my behalf, please feel free to nuke Maytag. They want $17 (you read that right) for a replacement light bulb for the water/ice dispenser and they want just shy of $700 (you read that right) for a new thermostat. I can't believe the American economy is in recession given the overseas earnings of Maytag and Ovation. Not that I'm complaining you understand.

I just put the 2009 OFC Calendar up on the cork-board in my office. Everyone who has come into the office noticed it and made very positive comments.

As always, nice work Steve and Brad!

SWMBO saw the calendar last night and her comment as she shook her head was "You're sick" - I wonder what she would have said if it had been a Playboy calendar??? :confused:

My wife actually liked it, or pretended she did. After a few years she either comes around or gives up. Payback's a bitch, though. (pun intended)

Wives are interesting. Mine was very happy to have me go to Witko's house this last weekend. The way she says it is that then "I can go talk to somebody about guitars who cares the subject"....

It's almost like they read the same script :D

I have to confess that I have only recently started playing (less than 3 years) and have more than one guitar at home.

She says "If you had been playing for 100 years or was any good I wouldn't mind...."

I don't have the heart to say that I would probably be dead if I was that old or why would she have wanted to marry a man 50 years older than her in the first place....

Ah women - you gotta luv 'em

Mine and I have a great understanding when it comes to discussions surrounding our passions. I can talk all day long about guitars. Just babble on and on to my hearts content. She, on the other hand, can do the same about Pilates and yoga. With no disruption whatsoever. The only flaw in the system comes when we're in the same room so we try to avoid that as much as possible...

Mine is hearing impaired. I used to say listening impaired, but she is going in for ear surgery Monday. We can't have a conversation at the dinner table, because all she can hear is her chewing. She thinks she is talking loudly, but I can't hear her. Same in the car.
This works fine. I just pretend I understand what she's saying and if she accuses me of failing to tell her something, I say I told her but she just didn't hear me. She's never accused me of playing a guitar too loud.

Don't let yourself feel bad.
Dat's what they make magic markers for.

FYI... Cliff offered a generous above & beyond donation to "sponsor" that particular day.
