John,
Yes, a removal or moving wagon sounds logical. I originally thought he was singing about a hearse - obviously wrong. What are the Document Lyrics Books? They sound like something I desperately need. I can find no such books at www.amazon.co.uk.
Your Explorer crashing is a bit of a mystery (what is G4?). Ive loaded my web site on several versions of Netscape and Explorer on different computers with no problem. My site has a few basic Java Applets and a bit of JavaScript, but I would be surprised if they cause the problem (I assume you dont have the problem with other sites which have Java - otherwise you would be having the problem regularly, as many sites have Java or JavaScript). Just in case, I have removed the Java Applet from my front page. However, I dont think youll find much of interest at my site yet. In the future I will be adding some tabs and Mp3s of me playing. The Mp3s may be a while yet as I currently only have a bottom of the range Fender, which was given to me, which sounds terrible, has a poor action and is horrendously difficult to play. Fender is famous for its Telecasters and Stratocasters but Ive not heard much about their acoustics. I hope soon to buy a new guitar. Im thinking Martin or Guild (or what other makes would you suggest looking at? price range 500 2000 pounds). Trouble is, in the past I've always had electrics. I dont know much about what to look for in acoustics, and if I pick up a guitar and try it, anything will feel good compared to what Ive got.
