I came face to face with my own mortality the other
morning. I had 5 minutes to be out of the house when I picked up the
mail and noticed a new copy of Acoustic Guitar magazine, and a new
Victoria's Secret catalog.......... I knew I didn't have time to read
both.........The moment of indecision scares me a little. What
if you reach an age at which you still really want to see the latest
models, but you prefer ones named Taylor, or even Fender? Or what if
your primary interest in G-Strings is hoping that someone will finally
invent one that doesn't break every time you play
Red Flannel Pajamas?
In the end, I was pretty late getting to work. But I think it was
because the girl who bought the Taylor guitar for my birthday came out
of the bedroom modeling the Victoria's Secrets underwear.
Not a bad day for a man my age. And I still had a couple of
things to read when I got home that night.
