Did you post it? If not do it, okay?!
---------------------
Why not. Here's the scoop. It's not like the other goofy thing. No vocals.
It was recorded using two microphones in front of the little studio speakers that I use with the Korg arranger, so quality isn't great.
Playing isn't great either. Strictly amateur hour. And I made it up as I went along. Probably similar to some song I heard a long time ago and has stuck in my head.
Used "Audacity" to create four tracks. Korg drums on one, various Korg voices on the next, Hammond Porta-B on the third, and then a little guitar fill on the forth track with a Gibson Les Paul.
Then mixed them all up, reduced to stereo and exported as a mp3.

If by "seniors" you mean people that make $250K and up, then I guess Obama is going to be unpopular with them.

Not to mention while all of this deflection is going on, gas is going up, and several taxes we pay are going up. The taxes on my wife's bulk tobacco just literally doubled the price of her smoke... Everybodys taxes are screaming upwards, don't let anyone fool you...

Understood. I'm sure Obama will keep lower income seniors in mind while he re-inserts the bleeding tube in the better founded.

It's officially called tax credit. The lower withholding that some folks are seeing is a result of it.

Anything that infuriates the mound of shit known here as FloridaJim is worth doing...over and over and over and over.
Safe boating courses will not only improve your water safety and boating skills, they will also qualify you for a discount on your PWC or boat insurance with most insurance providers. Just send a copy of your boating safety certificate to your insurance agent and start receiving the savings!

I'm still waiting for the marriage penalty to be repealed. The tax penalty part of it.
