Happy birthday, Bebop!! You're 9 years older than me and Lord willing, you'll stay that way for many years to come. I'm shooting for 130 myself, so hang in there! I grew up in a home with music all around me, but didn't start playing until I bought a guitar and amp from a Sears catalog when I was 24. Never really developed any talent at music, but I keep hoping. There are a few people who can put up with my playing, so I'm happy. And, if playing music is all it takes to be happy, I'll play until my fingers fall off. Have a great birthday, Bill!!
