Notes
Uncle Larry gives ya the REAL truth about having kids.....ya' know, all the stuff that's not in the brochure.
If any of you boys out there are on the fence regarding this particular subject, maybe this will give ya a nudge...in either direction...

only slightly unrelated, dear Leo and I are very proud of the art wall we put up in the new house last night ...some of his finest works, new and old.
such a good boy, very creative soul.

on the subject of music, people will sometimes ask me things like
"uncle larry, what is your definition of REAL soul and feel on the guitar?..."

i ALWAYS respond the same way....i just say "watch THIS friends"
