  • A long time ago, in a galaxy not that far away, but somewhere not so into the future, kinda like, a few years back, Burgess Meredith & Irene Ryan gave birth to there only son, Clifford Abigale Monseigneur Randolph Farqwah Gaylord Meredeth-Ryan the III (3rd). Clifford was an unexpected bastard child that was given up for adoption at 3 months old to be raised by his adopted father, Tennessee Williams - Tennessee had wanted a son to follow in his footsteps, but his testicles had been ripped off 3 years before by Andre The Giant after a dispute between the two over weather the toilet paper should hang on the outside or to the inside of the wall. Cliff was expected to be a great poet and writer like his adopted father, but lacked the intellectual ability to construct sensible vocabulary or understand literature to a form of degree that went beyond the likes of, "See Spot Run" - Cliff knew from an early age that he would not have the ability to compose poetry or literature, but did have a passion for music. At an early age Cliff was anxious to learn to play guitar, and at the age of 9 his adopted father brought him his first shiny 6 string guitar. But Cliff soon learned that trying to play something with a number of strings outside of his maximum counting up to ability may not have been the best choice. Cliff was battling through the decision of weather or not to give up on trying to play a guitar that had two extra stings he could not count up to, or if he should try a more simpler instrument like the triangle. It was during high school try outs for the school band that Cliff found out about another type of guitar called the bass, which is a much simpler musical instrument that pretty much anyone who thinks a guitar is too hard will switch to. Cliff even liked that it had 4 strings, and he could count up to 4. And the best part Cliff enjoyed about it was he only had to hold one note and repeatedly hit it, and no one would ever know if he was in rhythm, let alone even in tune. After high school, Cliff joined a band, that's name's not even worth mentioning, who where an alternative-grunge-death-metal band that just sounded like a classic rock band because none of them actually knew what they where playing most of the time. The group consisted of 9 bass players and one drummer. They where known around the local gig circuit as the band of no musicians what-so-ever. Cliff was actually considered the best of the 9 bass players, because he had been shown by a 6 string guitarist once how to play the opening riff bassline to Van Halen's Running With The Devil, which impressed the other 8 bass players, who did not even know that 1 single note existed! Cliff now knew how to play 3 songs, which was 3 more songs then the rest of the band he was in knew how to play, so it wasn't long before Cliff begun to grow tiresome of carrying the rest of the band on his back, and it was time to move on. It was at this time he met his new fellow band mates in a group called, "Home" who had been looking for a bass player who knew how to play at least 2 notes. Cliff was a little reluctant at first, as Cliff knew 3 and a half notes, but decided it might be a good chance to get laid, and took the gig. The group Home, went onto record 2 albums, which where no success at all, but made for cheap Frisbee's that where given away to everyone who spent over 25 cents at K-mart that year. But tensions grew between Cliff and the rest of Home as Cliff would often try to work in that extra note and a half during live shows, and the rest of the band just did not notice at all. Cliff wanted to be recognized for his gifted bass talent, and decided he had enough of playing with these talentless lackeys, so he left Home to go home.
