    Back at you Shiner, enjoy the time with the son. Kodiak and I had our vacation two weekends ago and really enjoyed that time. Well wishes to all Dad's.

    Anyone getting a guitar this Father's Day? Either as a gift from someone or giving a gift to them self?

    Well, I did, but I turned around and sold it. Instead, I bought myself a Seymour Duncan Hot P90 to go in my Washbrn Idol. It was OK before, but now it totally RAWKS!!!

    Happy Fathers Day to me and all the other Dads out there! :

    One of these days, I'll post some pics of all my guitfiddles. Happy Father's Day to you!

    If that works, just buy only black guitars and only take one out at a time and she won't know anything is different

    I lost mine 3 years ago the day after Easter. I still miss him, especially on Father's Day. I won't promise you that you'll get over it, but it will get a little easier as time goes on. You'll definitely be in my prayers, brother.

    Helliott's right! If your Dad is still around, take this opportunity to give him a hug and please tell him that you love him! Don't let that macho crap get in the way of doing so! God bless all the Fathers out there!

    I should have come down to your house, I'm starving. I could have ate and been back here before my two wake up. Well, one has to get up for work shortly - revenge is mine.

    Yeah, mine had to work at 5 this morning. Heading out to lunch for Dad's day now. He gave me the new REM album for a gift! Cool, eh?

    Yeah, mine is struggling to waken as I type. Of course, the fact that Baby Cobra is still pain free, can walk and later on give me a hug is the best gift of all considering she hasn't been able to touch or be touched for the previous 4.5 years. God Bless German ingenuity for figuring out that if ya give someone massive amounts of ketamine, that it can re-boot the brain to get past the pain.
    Yes, this also has a more important aspect too as some of our soldiers are coming back from Iraq with this and DUH...the government wink-winks it way right past the poor guys and gals who served for this country.

    My kids all gave me cards they made. I suppose you can count my Screamin' Demon as a gift, but that isn't in yet. Had the service this morning and then settled down to play the Civilization: Revolution demo on the PS3. They should just rename that game "crack."
