   I remember Rico Petrocelli from way back!  Very cool.  What made you   
   go from that to music?  I guess if I had that Stones Guitar, It'd be   
   my prize too... great stuff.  As for regretting not getting sigs   
   before their deaths, John Lennon must be high on a lot of people's   
   lists....
