Thank all of you for the Birthday wishes. Was a good One. Tina Dee Babe had a wonderful party for me and the day before we spent all day going back and forth to three hundred car dealers getting a new car. Nine days ago I noticed my transmission slipping in my good old 2008 Mazda Tribute. i put it in the shop last Monday only to find out it would cost more to fix than the car cost. So boom!! just when you get them paid off.....DA DA DA....(taps here!)
So we went back and forth and Ms. Dee Babe was in amazing form as she knocked all these salesmen on their butt. Put a hard nosed beautiful woman on the job and they can't say no to anything. Finally got it down to two candidates, another Mazda (would have been my fourth in 15 years) and a HONDA CVR. Finally about 8:00 pm, the HONDA won. It is gorgeous, my normal pure black and black. Almost enough black for me but I can't get those windows totally blacked out! But leather interior. Really very nice. AND HAS A BACK UP CAMERA SO I CAN SEE THE FACES OF THE PEOPLE I RUN OVER!!!! I hope to post some of those pictures sometime! LOL!
One of the newer things I do here are DRIVING tours of Nashville, where I actually take people aroujnd the town, show them the town of Franklin, take them on the MUSIC ROW tour, and downtown. It is actually pretty cool. So I have to have a decent vehicle for that as well. So this will work.
Thanks to Tina for kicking those guys butts. She is right upthere with my Ex-wife, Susan. She was the best I've ever seen. When we bought our house, she got the family to leave every thing they didn'[t want to leave, drop the price, and were about to give us money just to quit bothering them! Tina is right up there with her. So I am now all set.
The birthday was great, your wishes wonderful and now we are back to buisness.
We are going to start fresh on some things that we have covered a long time ago. Some of you may roll your eyes, some will read them and be reminded of where you were not long ago, and some might find some new information. I am on a MAJOR BRINGING NEW MEMBERS PUSH RIGHT NOW and have quite a few tours lined up to bring new people over. During my songwriting tours most of it is going through their material and knowledge. We don't have time to cover everything, so I am going to be bringing them here.
I want you all to participate as you can. I know a lot of people like to "LIKE" things and that is cool, but I want to know what you THINK and how it affects you. So please respond to posts I do. That is what makes this different than all other forums, facebook, etc. Everybody needs to know each other. And one of my "sales points" of the Ramp is that people can intereact with other people, privately, and get private critiques and information. That is what makes us different. We are all working on this here. So in a bit when I get rolling I want you to pay attention and comment if you can.
Remember, that there are a LOT of people out there who READ along and might be too afraid to comment. Think of it like YOU ARE TALKING TO YOU. Someone juust like you in another town city or country. They have somewhat the same skills, information, but MIGHT NOT HAVE THE SAME FRIENDS OR SOCIAL SETTINGS AROUND THEM. So do your best in your answers to invite them over and be inclusive.
So get ready. Class is about to start over.
