I like to pride myself on my reading ability. I know how to. That is, I know how to read. Which is good because I really like to read stuff written by people all over the globe. Whatever my mood, I can pick up a good book and either enhance it or change it (my […]

Online Book Clubs
I have been reading a tremendous number of books lately. When I finish a book, I am usually eager to discuss it with someone of like mind. I oftentimes run into problems with this. Back when I was a kid, my mother would call me into her room and read me (seemingly) moving excerpts from […]
Napoleon Dynamite – Ending Scene
One of my favorite movies of all time is Napoleon Dynamite. I know, I know…either you love this movie or you don’t. I happen to love it and I’ll let you in on a little secret. The more you watch it, the more you notice. By the twentieth time, you’ll appreciate the movie a heck […]
A Good Year
I am quickly coming to the realization that life if short. It’s taken a while, but now that I know, I plan on doing something about it. I suppose I can do two things. Either I can find a way to extend my life, or I can change my life into something that’s worth living. […]
Working Through the Sharps and Flats
I am pretty excited right now. For weeks, I have been looking ahead in the material and had this sinking feeling that something terrible was on the horizon. I think it was those sharps and flats I told you about yesterday. Well, as it turns out, they aren’t so bad after all. They are actually […]
Guitar Sharps, Flats & Naturals
I have great news – I am officially moving on to the Sharps, Flats and Naturals section of Session 4 in Gibson’s Learn & Master Guitar. This is pretty exciting because it means that I am comfortable with everything up until this point, which was a lot. Now, I’ve heard that it’s quite common to […]
Octave Jump Exercises – Session 4 Bonus Materials – Gibson’s Learn & Master Guitar
Ahhh, the dreaded octave jump exercises in the Session 4 Bonus Exercises. I’ve been reading the Gibson’s Learn & Master Guitar Forums regarding these and they are by far, the most difficult skill to master so far. I did well with the first octave jump exercise in the “Sixth String Exercises” (bonus materials). It took […]
Learning To Play the Guitar
Man, I feel like it’s been such a long time. I’ve been tied up with all sorts of stuff, one being my new adventure with the guitar. I don’t want to get into a long post about it here because I’ve been writing pretty consistently on the new “Guitar” pages I set up in the […]
Hal Leonard Guitar Method – Book 1
My copy of Hal Leonard Guitar Method arrive in the mail today. I decided that I’ll log my activities for that as well. The series is comprised of three books, bound as one, which keeps things nice and clean. Since this is in no way as comprehensive as Gibson’s Learn & Master Guitar, I’ll be […]
Practicing Guitar – Session 3
June 4, 2012 Practice time: 4:30 – 5:00 I warmed up with “More First and Second String Exercises” in Session 2 a few times. I felt comfortable with that and moved on to a few rounds of “Ode To Joy” and “Jingle Bells.” I am good at playing both of those songs at 90bpm and […]
