Now some people do, and some people don't......realize this.

Your hero?

The man is Les Paul..........
And he invented, from scratch, what you now know as the 'electric guitar'.
Little wonder his name is upon the stocks of most of the electric guitars being played today. He made them all possible.

Did you know Best explanation I ever found.

A minute, you say said the Grinch, oh said he.......
I coud not stop Christmas......
But maybe the Eve.......

When the evil lol' elves and Santa's aleep.
Maybe from coming New year's eve I could keep/

So swiftly the Grinch, he went on his fast way
to perhaps keep from coming the specail who day.

And he bundlbed up all what whas left in his trunk
and decided to wreck all of those who had thunk
that the New Year was something so special, they'd say
that the who, down in whoville, would have a special, fine day.

So he wrapped up all of the snacks he could find,
from all the whos up in whoville who were of similar mind.
And roamed round the town till he could mo longer find.
A shred or a morsel of Chiristmas spirit left.......yet.........

There was something, just something........he thought he forget.

And it still bugs his damn ass on this fine new Year's eve.
Whilst we sit here and celebrate while he sits there and sieves
We sit here and rejoice, while he ponders what is
it all what what he give back to God what is his.

Happy Grinchless New Year, my friends.

Bet you didn't know this....but in my life's last thoughts I had.........


A few things run though my soden head.
Somethings that we not so rude and
maybe could not be so contrued as
insensitive.........'cuZ I dont want to be remembered that way.

I would like, if I had my way...........
That all the people would have heard what I say/


There would be no reason to be crude.......
No season for being rude,
And everybody could be sensetive,
Cuz you see, everybody should be that way.

Soooooooooo.
I was thinking,
Just the other day.
That love and peace might just come our way.
And maybe war would be un needed, and
'War and Peace' would go unreaded.

But, it's silly of me to assume,
that because I'm sensitive,
Life could go on that way.

And I was thinking.....just the other day.
That I would listen to what others say......

And then I'd be like that a%%whole Hitler.
and like the b&&ch that accidently hit her and like all the pricks
that softly said.......
I'd like to be that way.

I'd like to distance myself...
in some kinda way
from the as***oles that think they might be my way.
They kinda think they are cruzin' cuz' of my thoughts
they are perusin'
Get real, mother f.......
Don't you dare hit your gurl.........
Because it just just ain't my way..

Are we clear on this?
I mean, words are bad,
but I could be man, the worst nightmare
you ever had.

If you got bad and did some to her
I'd come across and be bad to ya.
You don't wann hurt her, cus I'd be bad to ya.
Please be sensitive with her, 'cuz we both are made that way.
And I'll bust your F***in arse if you bust hers.
Only, my 'little talk' will not be so forgiving.

Understand?

Yes, folks......
There is more going on here than can be revealed.

And yes......as a vampire, I can cross great distances in little time.

So, the aforementioned transgressor might be well advised to avert his actions.

Or it might get really ugly.......

The electric guitar was not invented by your hero.

I think most people know that.

Worms crawl around in the stuff, so worms know a lot about it.

If the "hero" was Les Paul, actually he did invent, or at least build, the first solid-body electric ever, the first true electric. Previous electrics were acoustics with retrofitted electronics.

He couldn't sell it though (it was just an unaesthetic prototype he called the "log".) Soon after in 1950 Leo Fender made the first commercial solid-body electric: the Telecaster. It did very well, so when Les improved his design and went back to Gibson they accepted and released the first Les Paul in 1952.

Enough trivia for one day... I'm sure a Google will find all this and more. :^)

Don't know if he invented it or not, but I'm old enough to tell you he sure could play. Definitely up there in history's top 10 pluckers & strummers. :-)
