we had a few.. no gum in your mouth ever!
the elders found some gum on the carpet so gum chewing was banned.. disfellowshipped ones should sit quietly in the rear of the hall.. you had to get at least the congregation's average in order to share in the privilege of mowing the lawn!.
Wow!!!! Reading this made me realise just how lax our cong was,we had none of those rules......I even wore patchouli oil whilst giving a talk once!! Rebel or what??
Althought he curcuit did state that Bros with beards could not give assembly talks. We just used common sense.
i used to play the guitar quite a bit but haven't practiced seriously for quite a few years (and left my guitar in the uk when we moved over here).. yesterday i decided i should get myself a guitar again so i popped into a music store and had a strum on a few.. the ovation guitars seemed really nice and not too expensive.
does anyone have one or have any experience of them?
i would love the electic one they do that can also sound acoustic but can't really justify spending so much so would probably get a regular wood / round-backed one.. thanks.
Ninja....
I'm on my way with my camera.....this needs to be seen!!

Agree with Joebin...Ovations are ecxellent guitars but sooooooooooooo uncomfortable with the rounded back!! But do try a takemine,they really are good axes,and witha small 15/20 watt amp with some effects it can sound amazing.!!
thanks to this site, not only am i free of the mental imprisonment, but i am also free of the fear that the society used to keep me and others like me silent.. i am not a witness anymore because the truth is not what we are directred to think it is.
once we allow ourselves to think, it is clear as day that there is no real basis for anyone to take the title of faithful and discreet slave.
there are folders and lists which contain the names of pedophiles who were never turned over to the proper authorities for their crimes.

over the decades musicians rise and fall like a spring wind.
some stay where they should never be, some never are where they should be; such is the roulette of time.
this thread is dedicated to singer songwriters who influence the rest of the best, but are seldom known - 'gamblers in the neon, clinging to guitars...' .
Check out Mike Estes ,ex of Lynyrd Skynyrd and now with a band calles Skinny Molly. We have become friends with Mike since my sister introduced him to us at Daytona bike week last year. Quality songwriter and has won awards for his songs.Have alook and listen on my space.
