Nice John. "cleaner" than first version. (in my opinion).

Hired Mister Johnson to replace some shingles on my roof. He fell off, lucky for him he fell on me.I seem to be getting used to being busted up.

Responnse to David, below : Take some piano lessons, gets your left synched to your right. Or not.

Hope Ray brings some beer tonight, making some brisket.

Shoot, Uncle John, my left hand doesn't even know what my right hand is doing yet. However, I can play Thunderstruck with one hand like Angus Young on AC/DC. But mostly I just know some bits and pieces. I heard of this new technique, supposed to really make you play better, but sounds like a lot of work. And it has a silly name, the same word repeated three times. You probably heard of it - it called...oh shoot, it's...oh yeah. Practicepracticepractice. Weird name, huh? Seems awful complicated for beginners, though. Right now I use the B.B.King technique. Yup, I'm still playing "chordless".

Thanks, David.  I hope you enjoy the harp and rack.   5 minutes a day and pretty soon you may be playing harp and guitar at the same time.
