All I wanted for Christmas was a Boss Super Chorus CH-1 pedal. It is officially lost in transit. I guess my guitar will be slightly less jangly this Christmas.

Maybe Joe B can play something really jangly?

Right, it's the song title, not you, Joe.

@Joe, I know. I never did meet her, but her nephews were super cool. I met the oldest brother first. We used to wait tables together down in Kemah, TX. They were both super cool and I was in contact with the younger after over 20 years right when I moved back to TX. Unfortunately the older died about 7 years ago from cancer. My friend and he have two kids and she is widowed now. I found all that out through the younger, as she and I lost contact many years ago. :(
