Poll of the day 9/3/12

[Poll of the day 9/3/12]

I'll pick the latest one, but I would have guessed sometime even later into the 20th century.

[Be like Mike! Own a Gator guitar!]

These were part of a "Collegiate" series of guitars from Epiphone several years back. I think they did about 50 colleges. I have the one from my local school - The University of Washington. Not nearly as cool as the Gator version, but hey - the Huskies are my team! I had to do some work to make it a decent player, and I do pull it out and play it once in a while. It has a real PAF in it now. I've never seen another one like mine, so I'm thinking they really didn't sell very many.

[Be like Mike! Own a Gator guitar!]

These aren't very good guitars, but they are very cool wall hangers! And of course, Mike played one on stage.

[Question of the day 9/1/12]

My youngest son's 18th birthday a few days ago.

[Question of the Day 8/30/2012]

Dishes and vacuuming are OK.

[Poll of the Day 8/30/2012]

I support it. As somebody once said, any love is good love.

[Question of the day 8/28/12]

So many brilliant songs. How about "Like A Rolling Stone"? I always loved "Positively 4th Street". Of course the Heartbreakers covered "Rainy Day Women". Always a crowd pleaser. Or Jimi doing "All Along The Watchtower". Or the Byrds doing "Mr. Tambourine Man" or "My Back Pages". Yeah, that one. :-) And on and on.....

[Question of the day 8/27/12]

The '59 Burst, without question. Second is the Broadcaster.

[Poll of the day 8/27/12]

You mean where would I fall down? And my hands would be frozen anyway, so I wouldn't be able to play.

[Poll of the day 8/26/12]

All of the above. About a year ago I started scanning and saving tons of old family photos - some as old as 100 years. Then I put together an e-mail list of all of the family members I could and started a "picture of the day" thing. Everyone really enjoys it and we're learning a lot about the family.

[Poll of the day 8/25/12]

Yes, and it's crazy expensive with young drivers. Our youngest son will be 18 in a couple of weeks.

[Question Of The Day 08/25/2012]

There have been a few from my high school - West Seattle HS

Dyan Cannon - actress

Frances Farmer - actress

Jim Whittaker - first American to climb Mt. Everest (my Mom's classmate)

Gregory C. Johnson - NASA Space Shuttle Astronaut

[Question of the day 8/21/12]

I spent $600 for 4 tickets last time. I don't think I'll ever spend that much again, but I wanted my wife and kids to experience a Tom Petty concert up close and personal. And they will never forget that night.

[Question of the day 8/20/12]

Main body - "Pacific Mist", trim is "Boulder Creek", and accent color is "Terra Cotta Sun". But those names probably don't mean anything to you without seeing the sample.

[Poll of the day 8/19/12]

3 cell phones and 4 land lines.

[Looking for a cheap Fender Jaguar?]

Yeah, Mike's got several of those, doesn't he? I've seen him with white, blue, and this red one - all with the matching headstock.

[Poll of the Day 8/18/2012]

Kind of a neat freak, yes. The family makes fun of me, but when they want something, I always know where it is.

[Chapter 13 - Mike Campbell - The Guitars]

Wow, pretty emotional there from Mike talking about George. You could see he was getting choked up a bit, and so was I.

[Poll of the day 8/16/12]

Yes, many times.

[Poll of the day 8/15/12]

I've seen The Who and The Kinks a number of times, and Paul Revere and The Raiders are mostly a novelty act at this point. I'd pick The Kinks.

[Question of the day 8/15/12]

Easy. The filet mignon at Daniel's Broiler in Bellevue, Washington. Best steak I ever had. No contest. Not cheap though. Dinner and drinks for my wife and I was over $200.

[Poll of the day 8/14/12]

Every 6 or 8 weeks. Usually I wait too long and it starts to look shaggy.

[Question of the day 8/14/12]

Denny's makes a pretty good breakfast, but I don't go there much. It piles on the pounds. I'm a big fan of a donut for breakfast.......which also piles on the pounds.

[George Carlin]

OK, I watched all of that, and laughed my $%*(*@% *^% off.

[Question of the day 8/13/12]

I've never been to England, so that would be high on the list. But I loved what I saw of Italy when I visited, and would really like to see more of that country.
