Location: Sydney, Australia | I saw this article in the paper. It made me wonder what might happen to one of AJ's guitar mules if a string snapped inside their stomach, half way across the Pacific. |

Location: Sydney, Australia | "Taffy"?? Captain, you're the one that coined TAFKAR, now you still want to change it.
We've been away for 2 weeks, so I'm hoping it will be there when we get home. We are in Sydney at the moment, then a 7 hour drive to Coffs Harbour tomorrow, followed by another 5 hours the day after to Brisbane. |

| Didn't know about wilblee, but certainly give credit where it's due.
I used it because an old buddy of mine called himself The Engineer Formerly Known As Rob - and used TEFKAR as his Compuserve handle (who remembers Compuserve?). It was an easy jump from TEFKAR to TAFKAR.
Must be nice having summer vacation at Christmastime. Fewer travel headaches. |
