When I was about 15 my best mate got given a guitar and an amp for Christmas. At the same time I got given a really crap stereo that couldn't play CDs even though I'd tried to make the point that I really wanted a CD player. When my friend Dan phoned me and asked me what I'd got for Christmas I told him my crappy stereo was "a flying machine"
and then felt very silly when he later met it. Then I decided to learn how to play guitar and teach my rich-parented, good-looking friend a lesson by kicking his arse. I bought his guitar off him when he converted from being a metal head to being a raver.
If I couldn't laugh at myself how could I laugh at someone less ridiculous?
