    AN IDIOT (RG LUNATIC) IS ATTACKING THIS FORUM

    The reason I havent posted in a while (nobody noticed ?) is because I took a staple to the finger..... I was lucky...it missed the bone....but I stopped breathing for a coupla seconds. Then to cap it all.....I bust a string on my guitar.... Well ...you can imagine......I just went to pieces...
