Man i thought you guys disappeared or something. Whats been going on? and I missed you guys. Hey Sylvan i finnaly got a guitar. nothing special its just a learning guitar but hey its a start. Harry
-
Welcome aboard, my man! If you want any pointers on the guitar thing, just ask- myself, 87Natty and Recklessrob are all pickers.
-
Sweet i knew you played but i didnt know about natty or RR. I have been learning chords and stuff but having never played before its kinda hard(as shit) to get my fingers right.
-
My biggest suggestion to you is to do things correctly right from the beginning. For instance, I started out fretting the root in the "power chord" with my ring finger and had to go back later and learn to use my pinky....also, alternate pick right away so that it's not something you have to get good at later when you are ready to speed up. If you ever wanna call me, just let me know and I'll shoot you my cell number. I'd also be happy to get you tabs on anything if you need them.
-
Thanks man i will keep that in mind. Where the hell is Robert at?
-
He's been MIA a lot lately--just got a fair amount of domestic type shit to straighten out.
-
Oh i called him the other day and he called me back but i missed his call i will call him again later and see whats up. Harry
-
I called him the other day and told him he should swing by here and let us know he's chill, but he's got his hands full for a while.
-
Ok i was just wondering if he was OK.
-
What's up Harry? Go up to "mp3 player" under the G-Body Parts banner, we all have some music in there somewhere.

Duh- why didn't I think to tell him that?
-
That's why I'm here. The benevolent cheese which holds the pizza together. I think I'll hit a Little Ceasars today...
-
That's why Natty is "Administrator by Default"

I still don't see how cheese fits into the equation, but yeah- he's pretty cool, I guess.
-
Yeah hes pretty cool. Hey guys nice music how long has everyone been playing. Sylvan i know you have played for awhile right?
-
Correct. All of you. Sun Dog plays too, did all of you guys get his chord PDF?
-

-
no i still have to get it but i seen it earlier.

Dragonational, how do we know it's really you? Dragonationai??? HAHA Just kidding. Glad to see some more people abandon the sinking t6p ship. Maybe when they are reading this site they will learn that these forms are better when not for profit $.
-
Correct. All of you. Sun Dog plays too, did all of you guys get his chord PDF?
I don't know if you want to call what I do playing, but I'm better at rhythm than lead. I just put down the guitar for a while and bought a keyboard. My short fingers are better on the plastic ivories. If anyone wants that chord pdf file just pm or email me your address.

Hey Dragonational,

Over the past two days I have told FEMA and MGM to fuck off. FEMA wants me to meet with them in Biloxi befor they give me money and a trailer to stay in. I want to go back home soooo bad, but I wont. I cant. I want to though...it's killing me. I just want to go home and continue my life but thats impossible.
MGM wont work with my schedual at the Wynn. So I asked for a personal leave of absence so I wont get fired. Long story short, I told the HR lady to take the Voice foundation and the MGM and shove it up her ass. Is it illegal for them to basically deny me? She never said no but she BASICALLY she was talking shit. Thats when I told her to fuck off. Telling me that she understands what I'm going through and she threw in my face that they paid me for three months after the hurricane. $4.75 an hour. I could have gotten more money from unemployment. Fuck her....she understands my ass.
Check this link out. http://www.mgmmiragemomentum.com Where are they for me? There collecting money for us and I cant get them to help me out at all. When me and Carrie were having our BAD problems a few weeks ago, I called and asked them if they could get me an apartment. No. I slept in my car for almost two weeks. No help. And they want to be my priority!?!?!? I'm living in Vegas and everything is more expensive...No t to mention I'm taking a 20K a year pay cut. They dump me off at the Monte Carlo and their FULL time dealers are making 7K less than I was making PART-time in Biloxi. I'm not trying to toot my own horn but the lady at the Bellagio dont know my work history. Carries friend got hired at the Monte Carlo. The girl has called out 9 times and has numerous writeups over the past six months at the Beau Rivage. I'm PERFECT!!! And they want to be #1. I should have gotten a hold of my bosses. "juice" is what they call it. It's killing me. Talk about depression? I just want to go to sleep and never wake up. Right now my life is fucked. I've never felt like this befor. My car looks like hell, I'm not taking care of it. NTFU. I'm feeling like I dont deserve my car right now. I still love her more than anything but I cant handle her right now. While in Biloxi I worked HARD to be who I was, and everything ran smoothly. Now I have to start over. I'm going to stop babbling now. I'm kinda pissed and I dont want to give a sob story. I'm tired of talking about it and tired of thinking about it.
:prayer:
Oh yeah, heres a picture I took from a flyer at the MGM properties. I have been looking at it for two weeks. I swear I was going to wear it at the Monte Carlo one day while I was dealing cards. LoL. It makes me SICK.
Oh well, I cant upload it. It says "MOMENTUM, YOU CAN HELP REBUILD LIVES"

Dude, I know you don't know me personally, but I wanted to let you know alot of people feel the same way you do; myself included. We may have different situations, but still the same predicament. I know Vegas is a rough town and maybe you didn't need all that neon and bullshit piled up on top of you yet. I'm sure your heart is in MS, so at least don't give up on the idea that you can go back if you want. Feeling trapped or cornered brings out the animal side of people, don't feel bad for thinking some strange shit. There is no easy answer but you've gotta laugh about it and picture yourself looking back at this year and remembering you needed to go thru this to get there. I'm just rambling on getting drunk on Sam Adams Octoberfest. The holidays always amplify the bad times in life so take 3 deep breaths and LOL. :partyman:

I discovered Jack Daniels flavored coffee tonight...
Hey Robert, just stick with it. Your foot's in there now, just try to get your leg in and then your torso. If you try to get in in like Jack Nicholson you'll be left out in the cold.
Shit, I'd probably go back to Biloxi and take the cash and trailer and sell the trailer and go back to Vegas myself. But I know it ain't that easy.

Your right that did sound like some Ann Landers' shit. I was having a midol moment. Hey, if you need a job I hear there is a guy with some white tigers that needs a sidekick. Happy New Year Brother. Here's to 2006 :atbeer: :atbeer: :atbeer:
-
Hang in there Robert. 2006 can only get better for you!
-
Just come to Arkansas and hang out with me. :supz:

Yes it will, it just takes time..Hang in there

From what I hear I believe thoes guys have a shark show here in Vegas.
Back in December 2000 I told a good friend of mine that 2001 was going to be the beginning of my life. I had myself all hyped up. I made it work out. Success.
It kills me that it crumbled in August 2005. I want to be all hyped up for 2006 but I cant convince myself that I can do it again. I dont feel like doing it again. I hope I'm just in a depressed mode right now. I got to shake this shit. I'll feel better befor long. Right now I'm just down. I'm starting to feel more confortable at work. I'm actually not my normal self. I need to get back to the way I was at the Beau. Go to work...do my job...keep my noes clean...keep to myself...go home. Today is actually the first day I did that. Felt good. Feels like I'll be back in my mode befor long.
Hey Jim, I had a dream last week that I was at your house and your garage was empty. LoL. I was impressed. :rofl;

Robert, you may want to be careful about the trailer thing. Fema
has been around the country buying them. The problem with that
is, that many of those trailers are actually campers and not mobile homes.
Campers aren't made as well, and they don't hold up very good
to year round living. Even with all the challenges, you're probably
better off right where you are. At least for now. May you, Carrie, and the boys
have a very happy new year.
