I am honored to have my first ever commission come from none other the Paris Hilton. She wanted it to be bold and to fit her lifestyle... It was risky but here is what I came up with.

She tried to pay me with "Get out of Jail Free" cards... but I found out that these are usually replaced rather quickly with "Get your a** back in Jail" cards.

Actually blain the white was inlayed... the miters were brutal! This guitar really has a voice like it's new owner... squeaky and unintelligible.

I knew we embraced the catch and release philosophy as far as our treatment of miscreants goes, but this is getting stupid.

It's a lovely guitar but I really think the lovely Ms. Hilton would be better served with a Harmonica.

Hope you tape some nut files inside the guitar, it will give her a head start in planning her prison break.

No, apparently a well paid psychiatrist and whining will do the trick if you have a last name like that.

I'm changing my name to Christian Doubletree - it has a nice ring doesn't it?

Besides the fact that this post is ridiculously off topic (and yes I started it), I think we have gone a bit far... perhaps too far. Nah. I think she is going to enjoy the accessories.


I have far too much time on my hands.

After receiving Chanson's lovely guitar, Paris realized that she really didn't know how to play the guitar, or read music, or read anything for that matter.
So she did what she does best and got drunk.
She was staggering down the main street of town. Somehow, she managed to make it up the stairs to a cathedral and into the building, where she crashed from pew to pew. She finally made her way to a side aisle and into a confessional. A priest had been observing the lovely lady's sorry progress. Figuring she was in need of some assistance, he proceeded to enter his side of the confessional. His attention was rewarded only by a lengthy silence. Finally he asked, "May I help you, my dear?" "I dunno." came the drunk's voice from behind the partition. "You got any toilet paper on your side?"

I try and not delight in the misfortunes of others but I have to say when I saw miss teasy wearsy crying in the back of the cop car on her way back to jail, I had to laugh....
She could have really just slid under the radar and kept a lo pro - but her get out of jail catered "party" just disgusted and outraged America,
so much that she landed herself back in the slammer with her own audacity... way to go duchess , I mean your heinous, um highness.
Cheers

When the police pulled her over for breaking the speed limit, she offered to pay to have it fixed.
