dogitude

A dogitude is a thought that a man's best friend has, the kind of thinking that results from being a well loved and pampered pet. One can imagine these cliche-like thoughts appearing in thought bubbles hovering above the pooches head.

"Dogitudes" for plural.

Fido thought, "I love this man...when we go for walks together, he stops while I pee and sniff." Or, "Happiness is a bowl of the steak my master is eating." Those are a dogitudes.

Carpe Hear'em

Ever had tickets to see a band and ended up not going? Ever wish you would have / could have witnessed the greatness of an emerging talent?

Carpe Hear'em is the marching order to get up off your ass and get out there to hear the great live music all around us. Make a sweet musical memory.

"Dude, they start in 45 minutes...let's go! Carpe Hear'em!"

pickworn

A guitar that has seen better days, with a top that is all scratched up from years of heavy strumming and general use, can be called pickworn.

Willie Nelson's "Trigger" is a perfect example of a guitar that is heavily pickworn.

Fretboard Diarrhea Syndrome

Fretboard Diarrhea Syndrome (FDS) afflicts thousands of guitar players. This condition causes the guitarist to play way too many notes and play them way too fast. This style of playing in no way serves the melody, the song, or the singer...it only lets the guitarist show off and gives him a chance to bob his head like a rock star. This unnecessary and distracting barrage of notes is often delivered at way too high a volume also, further diminishing the value of the playing.

There seems to be no cure for FDS.

"That new guitar player in the band? He has a severe case of Fretboard Diarrhea Syndrome...he, and now that band, is unlistenable!"
