30 Years ago I went to a strip club and got a dance from a girl, during said dance she bends over in front of me with her butt in my face. I said "don't point that thing at me, how would you like it if I put my butt in your face?"...she laughed. We are still friends to this day.

I don’t know what book it was but I’ll never forget reading something you wrote that in essence was “a guitar string prefers being tightened to being loosened. And that lesson has stuck with me and helped me in many contexts in my life. So, thanks!

Okay. But when you pick up your guitar, what's the song you're going to play every time?

Paul-inToronto 🇨🇦🏌🏽‍♂️🏒 · May 16

Dirty Stephen: Uh uh. I know what you're thinking. "Did he pluck six strings or only five?" Well to tell you the truth in all this excitement I kinda lost track myself. But you've gotta ask yourself one question: "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya, punk?

I remember how righteously angry you were at Susan Collins-I hate her for so many reasons. But I've been dying to know what you think about Platner. He's this country's future-I'm retired but this man is speaking the English I've been waiting my entire life to hear. Maybe you feel differently?

The Devil bowed his head because he knew that he'd been beat. And he laid that golden fiddle on the ground at Stevie's feet. Stevie said, "Devil, just come on back, if you ever wanna try again, I done told you once, you son of a bitch, I'm the best that's ever been."
