I guess I started playin since i was 10 cuz I realized I hate work, and didnt want to have to do a real job. Plus i had been studyin violin since i was 5, and I hated it with a passion. Also- I realized it would be a helluva lot easier to get the ladys if I played guitar. Since then, I switched from violin to cello, but the whole ladys aspect still hasnt seemed to have kicked in. Oh well, maybe in college...
