   I got Gene at a booksigning too before (My French Whore).  I was gonna   
   drive up that weekend in Jersey when he was at the same store as   
   Andrews because I wanted badly my 5 sig wonka cast photo signed by him   
   to complete it.  It rained and we had the grandbaby that weekend so I   
   couldn't do it.  I am wanting him badly and I did get a second copy of   
   the book and made a small profit selling it.   
      
   remember when you said what's hot is hot?  You have to sell   
   immediately practically to get your money back.  You have to know when   
   to buy and when to sell just like stocks.   
      
   I haven't been doing well on stocks though.  They never go up!  LOL
