Good grief!! Debra, I live two hours from you-in Greenwood, LA. I know these guys well and these guys don't mean to be brash or mean. Although, Ben may have been a little bit over the top. It's just that so many spammers use this site to "advertise" their own brand of meanness. The music business is full of "takers", as you well know if you've been in the business for very long.

I think the main thing they are pointing out (aside from the grammatical errors in your posts) is they didn't fully understand the benefits of paying someone $50.00.

"Grits is one of those country-boy words that is both singular and plural-like deer, elk and sheep. I think the singular is appropriate when there's a modifier that makes it clear one is talking about something specific. Like, 'Grits are good for you, but these here grits is tasty.'"~~Joe Wrabek
