This kind of stuff never meant much to me, although I did save my 28 ticket stubs to Frank Zappa concerts till I was about 20.

On the wall in our staircase is a photogragh of three very poor guys at a table playing cards in a room with a mud floor. One is passing cards to another using his toes, obviously cheating the other player.

Scribbled across the picture is
"George, dig these cats!
Louis Armstrong"

It's just amazing how this thing holds a very palpable 'energy'. I can't help staring at it sometimes.

You'll really hate me on this one: I paid $15 for the Will Bradley autograph and press photo! It came up on eBay, and no one else was bidding!
