The MANCAVE

I never play long enough to get the fingers properly calloused up

I know how you guy's feel , I am a former Bass player and its like some days you really get into the groove and other days not so much. I sold my beloved Gibson SG Bass and my Fender Amp, oh well , my damned wrist would cramp up from Carpal Tunnel so such is life .

I see we have some over-aged teenagers in the house.... LOL!


I'm generally a responsible adult, but alas I must confess to the occasional "episode" of reckless in-house "tom-foolery"... that I'd kill one of my kids for if they'd done said "foolishness".

That's an interesting term ''Tom Foolery'' you may know the story behind it. There actually was an Englishman back in Medieval times that was named Tom Fool and he was a Jester. He had a Macabre sense of humor and at times new comers to the English woods would get lost and stumble upon Tom Fool. They would ask for directions to get back home to their Village and Tom Fool knew of a deep pool of quicksand nearby. He would instruct them to take a certain path and the unsuspecting victims would end up in the deep pool of quicksand. He would watch them slowly drown to their death and thought it humorous. A rather sick sense of humor and that was his way to have fun and ''Fool Around''.

My oldest son is named, Tom.... 'nuff said.

What kind of Music You Jam To?

At 60, I'm a classic rocker from teaching myself to play listening to the radio in the 60's/70's. Definitely blues too.

I used to play Classic 60's-70's Rock, to Punk Rock. Me and my Bud that I jammed with wrote a tune named ''Paradox of Denial'' That was a Masterpiece I believe and gave my fingers a workout.

HAIL TO THE ''V!''

What would you guys out there say is a FAIR amount of time to spend in The MANCAVE each day ? I kind of feel guilty spending too much time inside there, but My Wife watches T.V. and I surf the internet because she hates the internet and I hate T.V. So is it neglect and being selfish or ???

At least you are home...
