Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, . That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask theBuddha, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you are most likely either new here or completely retarded, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then .

From the age of 14 on, I pretty much never went home for summer. I was off at a boarding prep school for much of the year, and did pretty much what I wanted the rest of the year. I did not go to prep school because my parents had money, I was a scholarship kid with most of my tuition being covered by that. I went to prep school because it was that or military school 'cause my parents had had enough after my neighbor and I set his dad's garage on fire.

I was pretty rebellious, strong headed, self-centered, angry, immature, and stupid.

I haven't improved all that much.

Man, my parents made some strange choices with me. They had me study Aikido at the age of five. I suppose they thought it'd calm me down. No, it just meant I could beat up anyone my size and even some people bigger than me.

They tried filling my life with activities. I didn't deal with it well. Eventually, they kinda wrote me off. We were pretty distant until after I finished boot camp. At that point, I was a Marine and an equal in my father's eyes. That changed a lot of things - including me.
