Where in the hell is Uncle Dave?

Dave,
Say something man! What's going on? I miss ya friend?

Boo I just left DNJ's wife Nancy's...birthday party...Donny played ..about 250 people were there including Uncle Dave[with Donna, the lovely mother of UD's daughters]..and I was there with my[also lovely ] wife Kathleen..

Donny put on a heck of a party..for Nancy's big 50..

Wish I could have been there, but I had to work. I knew it would be a real blast.

... did UD play/sing ??? How is he doing? Was UD there WITH his ex?!?!?
t.

His second EX, not his third EX...

If we were all unattached..I would flirt with Donna in a heartbeat...What the heck I would still flirt with her..

PICS ?!?!?! .........
t.

"I had a girl, Donna was her name, if she left me I'd love her just the same. Oh Donna, oh Donna".

DonM

you got mail

I'm still waiting to hear from Uncle Dave?

Boo...call or email him you wont see him here.

Boo:

It's been awhile since we've seen one of your famous posts. Are you back in Colorado or still down in the swamps of Louisiana?

Don't forget, you still owe me a CD of some of your sax playing. Always good to see you here at SZ. Like you, I wish UD would post every now and then just so we'd know he's still alive and kicking.

All my best,

Dave Rice http://cdbaby.com/cd/daverice

Hey Boo !
( My favorite line from "To Kill A Mockingbird"

I'm OK ! I'll fill y'all in after a while......I'm still reeling from the "Miami Hurricane" that blew thre here, took all my money and furniture with it ( her ) and went south.

Well, I had it comin' - I rarely look b4 I leap, and this time, it really came up to bite me in the "you know what".
All that said - I'm doing great. I'm in debt up to my eyeballs for a year or so, but I have plenty of work, plenty of energy, and plenty of support from friends and family. As you may have heard ..... my wife of 18 years and I are back together ( providing she doesn't run off with Fran Carango ), and we're all working together to prepare for the birth of our first grandson in December. Lots goin' on, my friend. Lots and lots.

I start teaching at a private, non-traditional school this week. Full time music teacher grades 6-12. Looks challanging and fun.

More as I get a chance ........ good to hear from you !

GREAT NEWS, Dave! Teaching is one of the most rewarding things I've ever been involved in. To teach music would be fantastic. And, you'll be great at it! That "heart on the sleeve" approach will serve you well, and the kids will be crazy about you.


All the best,


Russ

UD: Thrilled to hear you're back at (teaching) what you love - Music! I'm curious, will you be having your students address you as Mister Boyd, or Uncle Dave?

- Scott

..... lookin' good .....

I LOVED teaching kids (accordion) ... and the satisfaction of seeing (and hearing) them learn is incomparable ...
t.

Scott,
I've been toying with the whole "uncle" thing .... still not sure. These kids are a little old to think it's cute. I used that when I tought 4-8 graders. This will be mostly HS age. We'll see.

I kind of feel neglected, abandoned Uncle Dave Mr Boyd ...
I've been a student of yours since around 1999 ... and I still need edjukaten!

Dave, that is truly wonderful news. Keep at it and you'll grow up to be just like me!
I think you and Donny were standing a LITTLE TOO CLOSE together there. Did you win the dance contest or something?

DonM

What a treat to hear from UD!

Your missed around here UD, glad to hear your back on your feet. You have a very handsome family and it's great to see everyone smiling again!

All The Best
Al

Dave,
Thanks for your response to my post.I really enjoyed hearing about the nice things that are happening for you folks. I'm very happy for you and the wife and your family. I wish you all the best friend.

Your student,
Boo

You have been missed Uncle Dave.
Glad your back.

Cousin Ken

Welcome Home Dave!

UD ... unfortunately, in this day and age, you might also have some parents wanting to know why you want them calling you 'uncle' ...
t.

Always delighted to see "familiar" persons posting on the forum again.

Welcome back Uncle Dave, the forum is richer now.
I hope you will find the time to post regularly again.
Theodore.

Well I think it's fine Dave. You've always been Uncle Dave to us and I'm in my 50s. Don't sweat on it. It's too late to change things here at Synth Zone. I think you'll always be Uncle Dave to most of us here whatever you decide you want to be called. Maybe most of us have the mentality of 4-8 graders

??? Hey Don ....... what picture of Donny and me? I asked him to post a pic of me and my girls after my daughters dance recital. Did I miss a joke somewhere?

Well he also posted one of you and him. It was very good actually, but it looks as if he deleted it from the post. Go figure.
I'm sure he will email it to you if you ask though.
DonM
BTW, it DOES make one feel stupid when you comment on a post and then it disappears.
