After reading what I wrote, it dawned on me that it sounded more poetic than smartass-y?

But, to quote another guy I know that vacilates between poet and smartass " You can't always do what you're supposed to do".

Kevin,I apologize if I disappointed you in any way.

You couldn't if you tried........

The remark you are referring to was a case of John McCutcheon being a smart-ass........

That's cause he gave the brain cell to Linda. Wait till he gets it back.

Oh sh*t!!! Now I'm, as Agnes would say, "skayert".......especially with Halloween coming

I knew that. dueling smartasses. (cue the "Deliverance music)

Playing the wrong three chords all along the fretboard backwards will do it.

I was handed an electric uke at a party in Tim Bray's suite in Washington DC at an XML conference. I went to therapy for months after that. Tim blogged it as me playing an original song. It was "Just My Imagination" by the Temptations. Canadians. What do they know about Motown....

It's funny you should mention this, as I am now in fact working on a new song called "All Along The Fretboard"...........

I'll be dog. I had no idea they had electric ukes. I bet that sounded neat...
