Been thinking a lot about band names for old guys lately. Will be adding another year to my age in a few days. Here's my latest submission on this grumpy old topic. Hope you like it. Or not.

In A Pros-state Of Mind Band

Back in post #930 of this thread I threw out the name Reptile Dysfunction Band as a joke. I now own it. As in reptiledysfunctionband.com. Probably never use it but for $12.99 per year...why not?

M. M. :)

Okay, Marmaduke caught and killed a squirrel today. It was horrifying. Can't even get into the gory details, but a squirrel chose to hide instead of run with its life's end as a result. 89 pounds of black labadorer-- you can run, but you can't hide. (He digs up bunnies!). He is canine hunting dna run to its extreme.
Know what you're thinking, but I've had to come to the decision of being a partial outside observer… I can't save them all!
If ever I'm trapped with a broken leg in a forest, Marmaduke will keep me fed. He's deceivingly a cold blooded killer who is a siss willy puppy suck if he doesn't get his ear rub and a hug (and treats) a sweet cuddle pup around humans.
fnord!
it is officially so hot down here in s.la that it is stupid; maybe the squirrel was just too hot to bother running away.

I would have to nuke the forest to control fleas & ticks because of all the wild critters.
Deer ticks are wicked bad this year even after a very cold winter.
My neighbor is now trying a new vet recommended super flea collar ($80.00) that is supposed to last 6 months, because so many pet owners were complaining that the Frontline and other drops all seem to fail after about 2 weeks or as soon as the dog gets wet.
Plus anything containing petroleum distillates absorbed through the skin increases a risk of cancer.
Using Ortho Home Defense around the house and that has done a great job. Might as well pick up 2 gallons because you need to treat once, then again in 21 days
to stop any eggs from hatching.

My poor Jack Russell looked great until two weeks ago and now she's shredded herself.
Bathing her once or twice a week in the kitchen sink with original blue Dawn dishwashing liquid.
As long as you rinse thoroughly, vet says its the safest.

Wake up GOF's. We're old, but not dead....yet. At this rate we'll never accumulate the posts of Club Bergantino. Remember the guy that bought his wife a SVT & 810 for Christmas? At the rate we're going, if he buys her a new bass this Christmas, they'll eat our lunch. Take your meds, if you need 'em, and get back in the game.

I've been going out at daybreak this week, well, that's bladder relief time anyway... So I go to a harvested wheat field nearby to shoot pigeons. My grumpyness fluctuates with the hit/miss rate. And my trusty old long-distance glasses are failing me.

Haven't seen B string in a while in here and he's the one that usually hands out numbers. The last list is on page 45. If he doesn't show soon , I'll reprint it and toss out a few well deserved numbers.
Next gig is a week from Sat. The last one I played was uncovered and outdoors on a day that the weather might not have been cooperative so I used the backup rig. Sure will be nice to crank up the old classic and 8 10 again.
