Why the name Ranch Chimp? it was in humour because, science says that humans have similar DNA to a chimpanzee,so I felt some way related biologically to a chimpanzee. 2nd, everytime I was out of Texas on a vacation or for whatever reason I’m always asked things like, do I live on a ranch?,or have cattle? so I commonly call Dallas the Ranch. "Politically Depressed" was also humour inspired by the 1993- 2002 Bill Maher TV/ tele show "Politically Incorrect".

CREDIT CARD REFORM'S: .... "Giving Credit where Credit (CARD'S) is DUE" ....
This is just another reference posting, mostly to show a few pointer's on the new change's and protection's as well for consumer's using credit card's. But regardless of how much we expect government to protect us .... this is America ... and we need to stay sharp, that's the price of democracy! Everyone know's that those who stay a step ahead of us is going to alway's figure out new angle's to make a buck. But in this video below, Financial Analyst, Mr. Clyde Anderson will give a brief rundown on the lowdown. And also a link here as well on this which will all be here in August 2010. And like Mr. Anderson tries to stress ...."use your head" ... I mean, I have abused credit card usage in the past for instance, and someone like me .... sometime's "debit card's" are better.
Also I want to add ..... to "give credit where credit is due" .... and never forget those who help you .... it's good business! Give credit here to our President and this Administration, no matter what party you may favour .... this is something that help's the people of "OUR" country (for a change). As far as I am concerned .... it's these small step's that show who tries to at least help the working people in these trying time's .... action's speak louder than word's, and those who helped us, such as this President and Administration .... will definitely get my vote come this November election's, when I'm done a favour, I believe in returning a favour. This is a small step by this administration .... but a significant hand for working America! Forget all the political talk and nonsense from those who criticize this President and Administration .... those who complain and criticize of them .... ask yourself .... what have they done for the people?

ReplyDeleteYes Mr. Tim .... I also had ran a debt in the late 1980's early 1990's of about $28K .... and took several year's to clear up.
ReplyDeleteI know that has to be your new Gretsch, I reckonize that distinctive body work. Look's nice dude! I'm sure you been breaking that neck in on it!

ReplyDeleteYeah I love it, I love my old one but it's just a different sound and feel.
Thanks Guy
Tim
Well Mr.Tim ... it can be very interesting in an experimental sense, if you take some of your old piece's and riff's and apply them to the Gretsch, just to see the sound variation's that will come of it. It's just going to direct you anyway's to different avenue's with that new feel .... ought to be alot of fun at least!
ReplyDeleteLater Guy ....
Year's ago I got a Hell of a deal down in Houston on a solid nickel Fife, it was nice too ... the dude selling it was a dope fiend, and it came from someone of past in his familia, and he ddnt know how to play the damn thing, nor did I at the time. At the time though .... I had done extensive work on Blue's Harp's, especially experimentation of using thing's like reverb effect's and even feedback, just alot of new electronic shit I could find to fuck around with, but had no experience whatsoever with Fife's/ Flute's. I ended up getting the feel and learning it doing several "Jethro Tull" (Ian Anderson)cover's, if you recall any of his stuff. I had a goddamn blast with that piece though!
ReplyDeleteHope you had a "cool" (heatwise too) 4th Upstate .... cause I know the City (NYC) was sweltering!
Also I may add Mr.Tim .... at that time of the Fife I was talking about above, I knew a dude that had a bunch of recording and effect's stuff, and worked with the newly popular mini moog sythesizer at the time himself, this was mid 1970's, and I started working with the first cordless shit that I ever seen or heard .... using FM Transmitter's!
