Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, click this link. That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should upgoat go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, ask a regular participant (such as @Sleazy or myself)

If you already know what's going on, you probably don't need to click any of those links. You can still visit to see if any changes have been made, as that's also where we kept the archives and have a second forum.

By the way, we're down to just two of us. If you want to help, let us know.

I have nothing at the moment, but if you would like to know more about my adventures, I strongly suggest you do a search of threads for the phrase “reminds me of” and you’ll see I have posted many little stories you can read.

My closing song is “Forever Max Cady” which is a remake of Jodeci’s “Forever My Lady.”

Here are lyrics ChatGPT wrote, but I think I can do better:

Forever Max Cady

Verse 1:
In the shadows, I’m waiting,
A force that you can’t deny.
With a thirst for revenge,
I’ll make your world collide.

Chorus:
Forever Max Cady,
In your mind, I’ll reside.
You can’t escape my fury,
I’m the darkness by your side.

Verse 2:
You thought you could run free,
But I’m closer than you know.
Every step that you take,
I’m the nightmare in your glow.

Chorus:
Forever Max Cady,
In your dreams, I’ll invade.
With a plan that’s so precise,
You’ll regret the choices made.

Bridge:
I’m the reckoning you fear,
A predator in your way.
Your past is coming back,
And I’m here to make you pay.

Chorus:
Forever Max Cady,
In your mind, I’ll reside.
You can’t escape my fury,
I’m the darkness by your side.

Outro:
So beware, I’m coming near,
You’ll feel my haunting stare.
Forever Max Cady,
You’ll know I’m always there.

Essentially a love song to Max Cady who will forever be in our hearts. Also, I want to put in little ad-libs from the movie in the chorus because it’s a slow song thay accommodate it, e.g. “Forever my la-dy…. “(“YOU’RE GONNA LEARN ABOUT LOSS.”), etc.

When you come eye to eye with a predator you see their nature and behavioral imprint.

Cats, big and small, have eyes like a viper. Extremely focused and disciplined when the brain switches to kill mode, a lethally efficient kill mode.

Wolves, excluding dogs, have the eyes of an opportunist, they analyze all options when it's kill time, including the targeted kill and they're always squinting in a way that makes it known they're up to something. A wolf will stalk you and you won't even know it until "it" decides to make it's presence known, either behind or along side of you, that's when you know you're safe.

A bear is totally different from other animals. Looking into the eyes of a bear you don't see a killer that will pack attack, sever your ham strings to bring you down and then have your throat ripped open by no less than 3 fanged jaws. Nor is there the calculating stare that goes with planning an attack.

Everything about looking into the eyes of a bear is calming. The fucking beast is all muscle and nerves and has the potential to do seismic damage and only fights when it has to, that's their nature. A bear doesn't circle you like wolves or slime bag coyotes, it comes head on and, from my personal experience, it'll either be in the form of wobbly strut or at greeting pace, never a long distance charge. I've watched bears charge at each other, either to protect cubs from male bears or during mating. Believe me, there's nothing more viscous and violent looking than pissed off bears charging towards each other.

A person will die of fright first with a bear in full charge and in kill mode.

Bears have a "don't give a fuck" look to them. Most of all, bears don't have the eyes of a killer.

Many humans I don't even want to make eye contact with.
