Damn you Jon Freeman!!! How dare you suggest that Michael K start sending you his instruments! Do you know how much the shipping, insurance and postage to England would be? Sure, he might feel better, but he'd be broke. Besides you'd just cut them up into little tenor banjos. On the other hand, a fine home awaits any or all of these instruments at 1235 Kingston Road. The hooks are on the wall, I've filled the humidifier, and am prepared to negotiate visiting rights.

Make no mistake Michael, you ARE sick! Verrry sick. Your wife is right, and I have it on good authority, is planning on leaving you unless you stop calling your capos and "dampits" SEX TOYS! You're not fooling anyone. I was there. Yes, when I met Duckboots, I too was an acoustic mess. Larrivee, D-28, Epiphone, and more Gibsons than a 19th century fashion magazine! Today I have none of those instruments..and I'm a better man for it.*
