CRISPINS CRITTERS

[AU24K]

Just a few more details that I've left out....

I've smashed at least 3 guitars that wouldn't hold a tune, I've played on stage about 5 times,
been a guest DJ on a rock station in Augusta, GA in the early 80's.....

I've made parts for my guitars like bridges, nuts and machined keys,
and have lost a few guitars to the dreaded pawn broker because of hunger....

Today, I have a sweet Takamine that was a gift from a dear friend
and I play it frequently, adding to the list of songs that I write.
The pawn broker will never get this one!

I have an uncanny ear for pitch and have tuned a piano by ear for a church that I once attended.
I have even restored and tuned a piano that was made in the 20's.

I took a piano course in college back in the late 80's and the final was to play a piece by Bela Bartok....


(not this, but Bela sucks. Don't you agree?

I did OK....think I got a "C"....I'd rather have played my own original composition....)



I guess that you can say I know and love music....

Hope all are Well.

My Best,

Scott​

Music is either part of your DNA or it isn't not something we chose....it chooses us....

A couple of digital pics from "hard" pics of me in the mid 80's.....



With a SWEET Gibson, lost to the broker....





With a couple from Georgia up to Kansas for my wedding.

The guitar on the right got me into trouble....

My new wife had a crystal bell collection and I was playing that guitar
and hit a note that shattered one of her bells.
In a cabinet....

I was SO IN TROUBLE! For a LONG time.....
maybe even still.....

One of her daughters and her husband would come over. He played drums.
He'd set up and we'd jam!

I remember playing this song....



Last I heard, he died earlier this year....
(he was much younger than me.....)


My Best,

Scott​

 

[AU24K]

The first song that I taught myself to play on the guitar....



The second song...



From there, I had it pretty well under control....

"Yes, the subject has been located. Proceed with elimination."


"Oh, Crap! Someone tell the kid to hide!"

"I'm sure that he's aware. Let's see how this plays out.... My money's on the kid...."

Yeah, I'm good with that..."List of people who enjoy the finer things in life." sounds even better. Everybody put there suggestions in and we will let TH pick which one suites us best.

A poignant tune about the government and a "breakdown" of society.....

I am STILL not worried.

Bring it, you incompetent bas.tards....



Best,

Scott


Hmmmm....
I missed the memo.....
I'm good with the change.

But, I still feel the same about the government.....​

 

[AU24K]

"I'm not saying that Scott was involved, but, it was ALIENS!"





"Damn, that kid is a genius!"

"Yeah, throw the search to a wide area!"

"Aliens. Ha Ha!"

(catch me if you can, agents....,)



"I am on your trail, human...."

Oops....

Too much "politics?"

Maybe just a bit of humor....

Let's wait and see....

as an outsider I suppose I can still opine. The thread will make no sense if you change the name. And why a need for appointed positions if it's just a group of like minded folks who like music and life? Doesn't that describe most people?

I received an email from the College this past week to wit:


Hello. My name is Anjana and I teach psychology here at UNG. I've been asked by the Hall Co Solicitor if there is a student that would like to work with a young man who has been out of school for some time. Your name was suggested by Shelly Aikman and Connie Ringger. The work would likely include mentoring, some academic assistance, and basic socialization before the student returns to school in the fall. Please read the email below from Stephanie Woodard, the Solicitor General, and contact me if you would like to volunteer for this.

(I have redacted certain parts due to professional confidentiality.)

This seems to be what I am going to college to accomplish, yet, I have reservations...


I would like to hear my Friends from here at Treasurenet give their
ideas and opinions....


Best,

Scott​

A song that has been playing through my mind all day; I don't know why....



Best,

[AU24K]

Thinking of the last tune by TOTO that I posted
makes me think of my College webpage, and upon looking, I see that I had to replace a song....
(Hold The Line)

Here, take a look for yourself....

PS.

I see that several song links have now become "broken."

Guess what I'm going to be doing tonight....

Anyone want a link?

PSS.
Remember, it's a chore to write HTML....
Even THIS page!
Just "right-click" on any web page and then click on "view source."

THAT'S HTML!​
