That story makes me very glad I never have had to really deal with conservative culture... Yay dysfunctional French Catholic family upbringing :facepalm: :whateva: :eek:

Family is [ok can be] weird and full of shitty politics and back stabbing...Yay dysfunctional French Catholic family upbringing :facepalm:

I know you were half joking at the end there, but it is tragic. I would contact your uncle and see if maybe you could get a hold of it. Odds are he doesnt know what its worth and you could maybe get him to give it to you or work out some kind of deal. That guitar needs to be played and not locked up in a closet.

You dont have any crazy lip piercings do ya :poke:

Well since we're talking about crazy conservatism, my mother and I havent spoken a word to one another in 2 months because I wouldnt pray with her when I was visiting for dinner. She said fine, but that I had to take a "moment of silence" while she and my sister (does everything my mom does and is my moms favorite child) were praying and I said, "no, for what?" She completely flipped out, took my plate, and dumped all the food into the trash can. We havent spoken since. Made Thanksgiving a fun time and Im sure it will make Xmas dinner even more fun.

I would be upset. I'm even upset about the lime green jackson V my cousin had was sold before I even started playing. I would've had some lulz with that guitar.

:wow what a fantastic idea you have there:

we can ring the door bell and distract him while you sneak in the back and find it! ;)

:facepalm:

seriously devi, you need to get that thing before your cousin gets it.
