Reading this, I don't think you are obliged to always tell us about when you are happy. I'd say that you could even post stories from the past.
Myself, I am happy most of the time. But with the temperature today, I might get a little grumpy when the computer guy who has fixed the firewire output calls me up and tells me to go there and get it. But, getting it back means that I could get back to making silly, stupid music! And the thought of that makes me happy.

E. Joel, happiness seems to be a complex thing.

Here's my Fonzie moment. A post of mine showed up on the welcome thread this afternoon. What's so happy days about that? I posted on 2 threads on Sunday night that have yet to show up. They were good and lengthy, so re-posting is probably not going to happen.

Oren, my posting troubled friend, you're supposed to profess to be happy on this thread.
I'm happy, for example, because I'm sitting down.

Thumbs up It's here

The New Pre Amp/Practice Amp (aka P.A.P.A) is here and finally done. This makes me happy as it was years in the making mainly because it was shelved 2 years ago due to more important projects that needed to be done. Now the samples are here and will soon be on the website and available for sale.

Does this mean that when you stand, you are unhappy? I believe that this would be a logical assumption.

In any event, try to sit as much as possible. In fact, I hope that you are sitting right now. That would make The Fonz real happy.

Oren, my friend who often lifts me with unquestionable logic, you are indeed right!
I sit to relax, I sit for a bowel movement and I sit to indulge in the delights that Ken's Corner offers. The only joy that standing brings is playing my double bass. Come to think of it, I'm happiest when playing my bass (pleasures of the flesh excluded here). I'll start again, oh wise man from the northern south...
tonight I'm happy because I'm standing with my bass.

Good evening. I'm standing with my bass = happy.
