For sale "Hey man that bass is playing you"

Mark, now that it's over, I gotta say: He was anyhows and anyways too young for you. He lacked the appreciation mature women deserve.

We'd both be "toy-boys", but only just...

It' OK Mark there's plenty of "cougar bait" stateside

Even if they don't all have a bunch of Gibson basses

I think Dr. Aquafresh will need to start a new thread by the time he gets his camera back.

OTOH at least we're keeping it near the top.

What Dave...? Poor Mark's grief at finally realising that he's been dumped, in the full glare of the public eye...? the rawness of the moment, for all to "see"...?

We should all spare a moment for solidarity and share her grief...

In all fairness to my sometimes skinny Dutchman - I'm doing ok

I just thought I had to give our relationship some air. But I will never forget you ofcourse! In next issue of De Bassist I enclosed the Mike Lull Bird in the gear section and I wrote that it was designed by Mike Lull with help of a Gibson T-bird collector. What followed was a romantic poem about you, but my colleague didn't want to print that 'cos it had nothing to do with the bass'.

Strange.

De Bassist just wants to retain the semblance of a family magazine I guess. That said, parts of the heartfelt poem have been indiscreetly divulged to the greater public and I feel honorbound to quote from it here:

Take me to the promised land
Conquer me like desert sand

Lead me to my rightful home
Chain me up in steel and chrome

Behold, you are my leathür dove
Especially when you've got me cuffed

The thought of you leaves me no Lull
Ik hou van jou my fishnet doll

Mind you, The Netherlands are known for lots of things, but great poetry isn't among them. An "A" for effort though.

Ow, man, I send it to you, Uwe, but you promised me to keep it secret:( I'm very disappointed now, but in the other way: It was my heart speaking and I am not embaressed!

uwe · September 10, 2009, 07:28:04 AM

It deserved public appreciation, Chris, trust me.

Chris P. · September 10, 2009, 07:34:55 AM

Trust a lawyer? Well, why not: Mike Oldfield says in this month's issue of Q magazine, lawyers are the only persons he thrusts because he pays them.

Chris P. · September 10, 2009, 07:36:01 AM

Thrust is something else than trust. Which is the one used for getting objects from A to B and which has to do with faith? I meant trust.

That is why Metallica played Thrash Metal, not Trash Metal, although some here might disagree or fail to see/hear the difference.

English spelling can be confounding, but often little earmark sentences help. Loose or lose?

Easy!

"Loose women lose their virginity early." After they have lost it, there is one "o" less.
