                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Thanks for the "Welcome Wagon".  It's interesting to see your geographical representation:  a couple of yankees, a southerner "wannabe", an Englishman, someone from my own backyard, and a Texan (where I have friends that consider Oklahoma as the northernmost county of the Lone Star State!)  Thanks again.  It's good to be here!]]></content:encoded>

YEEHAW<br><br>LOL<br><br>Ya.. I dont sound like an Okie much either.  Think I have said howdy a few times recently but I willingly worked on my okie accent a few years back and some of its stuck.   :(  <br><br>Happy to see another from my state.  Might be three of us now.<br><br>Anyways.. Good luck on the guitar and you'll find that there is alot of community and resources built into Guitarnoise.

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Actually, I haven't said "Howdy" since I was a kid going through my Roy Rogers phase . . . but I knew it would be expected from anyone from Oklahoma  :wink:  As I stated on my very 1st post (last week on the easy song database) I am a middle-aged guy who played the same three chords on-and-off again since I was a teenager.  ("Off", in terms of not playing at all for long periods, and in terms of being off-key!)  But a mid-life crisis came upon me a couple of years ago and I sold my "cheese-grater" and bought a real guitar.  More importantly, about that time I discovered GuitarNoise and I have been lurking here ever since, particularly enjoying David's guitar lessons.  I decided to "come out" and maybe (hopefully) contribute something back to the site I have enjoyed so much.  I am glad to be here and look forward to exchanging ideas with you (ie. mostly getting ideas from you!) . . .  oh yeah, and I'm left-handed!]]></content:encoded>
