   I bet you enjoy it even more now that you're older.

   Maybe fans just wanted his autograph, but who knows?

   Yes, it is, but for some, there exists only THEIR viewpoint.

    RN> just to see that movie.  The line to get in was long, but the next   
    RN> weekend I took my wife and daughter to see it.  I'm speaking of IV, of   
    RN> course.  The only way to get my wife to go was to tell her there was a   
    RN> band in it.  You should have seen her face.   
      
    JA> LOL - well, it wasn't a lie. :-)   
      
   See below, but you are right.  The look on her face was priceless.   
      
   I mean, who would have thought there would be an alien jazz band in another   
   galaxy?   
      
   I hate lying, but sometimes you have to in order to spare someone else's   
   feelings.  The result is that everybody lies for one reason or another.  I try   
   very hard not to.
