Lovely. After a not especially wonderful day, that put a huge smile on my face. Thanks for posting this!

This was posted once before (I think it was on this forum), but it's nice to see it again. Thanks, Kira. I know how the guy feels. Christmas '84 comes to mind.

I just thought this vid had universal appeal. What a classic! You couldn't have staged it any better. And who around here could fail to identify with it? We all wish we were Dave! :lol: :lol:

It reminded me a lot of October 4th, 2001 - our 15th wedding anniversary. My lovely wife presented me with a single red rose, and the three immortal words: "Order your Rickenbacker".

My long-awaited, carefully saved-for, much talked about, hugely anticipated 650D was on its way minutes later :)

Modesty prevents me from answering that question with any specificity.

Suffice it to say that this year will be #23 for the wedding anniversary, and #8 for the 650D. Both still going strong. :mrgreen:

Ya know Kira, out of all of the McGuinn covers I've seen on YouTube, this guy, David Whitt does the best. Once in a while he posts on the Byrdmaniax Yahoo group.
