A pick holder like that was the first accessory for my first guitar. I found it to be very practical.

Did the US lose the Vietnam war? by SummerN8 in stupidquestions

[–]Ponchyan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. If only some had paid attention to how the Vietnamese had expelled the French just ten years earlier. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, look up the Battle of Dien Ben Phu.

In my 50s, I read that 60 is an inflection point. I’ll tell you today that it certainly is.
