VIDEOS this afternoon. The wife is iced in in Memphis, visiting the grandkids, and I'm iced in at home, in the middle of Arkansas, so I'll spend the day visiting the forum and sitting in front of the fire with John's DVD set. Also, placed an order with Andy Depaule this morning, what a nice man to deal with. It's gonna be a nice day.

[QUOTE=highdrawlicks] I wondered how long it would be for the
influence of "Brokeback Mountain" to infiltrate the luthiery community.
Not that there's anything wrong with it.[/QUOTE]

Ok now there is where I draw the line! I ain't going brokeback on no one!
And I do think there is something wrong with it, but lets not open that
can-o-worms!

Actually worms are asexual. Meaning they really don't need a partner. Just thought you might want to know. Clinton

Thanks for the High school biology lesson! I did already know that, but
actually earthworms, like honeybees, are capable and utilize both sexual
and asexual reproduction.

Now, now guys, stop putting silly ideas into Johns head. You all know he is chasing up topics for the next shoot. The way this thread is heading, the next series could well end up titled "Nude Lutherie with Big Johnny".

Not only would this detract from the educational nature of his past flix, but it would also introduce a ratings issue, not to mention the hygiene and safety concerns.

Cheers

Kim

(Trying desperately to change the subject)

Hey Dickey, my family in Little Rock says it's a good storm. They were soaping up their sled runners when I spoke with them.

There was snow falling around here and in San Francisco this morning. Needless to say that is a rarity.

Nude deer hunt...kinda re-defines "buck-naked"...thing about openin' a can-o-worms, is that you gotta be prepared to eat 'em all!    Old Man, I just drove back into Collierville from Alabama, and it looks like this week end was indeed an icy one!
