#69. Woo Hoo! I got 6...sorry... when your CBN brethren start posting your comments from other threads ;-)

"Hi, my name is Oily, and I'm a Cigar Box Guitar addict. There is no known cure. I blame my addiction on my dear, departed father, The Gadgetman. He introduced me to the concepts of 1) the hardware store, 2) buying tools you might need "someday," and 3) multiple trips to the hardware store, because you screwed something up."

You left the silver, didn't you...
