Nice plan, HockeyDad, and excellent execution. (I TOTALLY kid.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one is like Rip-Your-Face-Off-Cougar-With-Razor-Claws-Toby. Watch your step, people. DCP participants NEED their encouragement to keep posting. I encourage all people to harass Toby ( not his real name). Somewhere on here is a picture of me having him in a headloack at Scranton years ago. Hey DC....errr Toby....got that anywhere you can post? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most drummers (percussionist) that I've known well share common personalities (re: dark senses of humor, quick with and a big mouth that overrides our brains.) We do after hit things with mallets....so going off on someone would seem pretty normal. Maybe that's why Britt wouldn't let me call her doctor yesterday to "explain my displeasure" to them.

I am now debating walking away for good. I used to love this website. I am now sick of all the bad news. It may be time to walk away from it all. Well, I never liked my job when my job was active duty navy. So, you are or were in the military a lot longer than I. Your pain threshold must be much higher.

They always have to be tapping on something. It can drive you nuts if you let it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
