Seems I forgot to mention (this past 25 Nov 2016) I've been here for 10 years.
 
And I'm still no wiser or matureer (oar evun ah bettah spellah).
 
Take that CH.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
FYI: A 11 year aniversary gift is steel, 10 year is Tin or so I've been told.

Happy anniversary! I'm 48 today. So there!

Methinks Clint is trying to "steel" your thread Bapu! 
 
Happy Birthday Clint!  Two more years on "that" side of the hill.

I heard that bapu has to engage in a rigorous training regime to keep his chops up so he can play his Alembic so effortless ..
I have it on good authority that his sports nutritionist turned him on to this for a little low end fret board pep 
 
 
As far as how long he been here ...hhhmmm, wow ,since 11/ 2006 
 
I'm surprised all of us here have survived his posting invasion for a whole decade
 
Oh well , You know what they say ,
A couple of hours here and there with out a flurry of bapu posts is like a morning breakfast with out the bacon .....

Craig.
 
'Lee' is an English surname, derived from 'leah' meaning clearing or meadow.
 
If you're going to do that joke for the 17,348th time, make it 'Li'.
