"
~ Born in Rome Italy - realized I was destined to become a saint.
~ Los Angeles, CA - realized that not all school teachers
were nuns and that learning to defend myself on the public school playground
was far more important than learning to speak English.
~ Ascot, England - realized the countryside was nice but boring,
got a hold of a piano.
~ Providence, R.I. - realized the piano wouldn´t fit
in my 2´ X 2´ dorm room, so got a hold of a guitar, bass and
several beers.
~ Los Angeles, CA - realized I was destined to become a rock
star (a saint who can get away with murder)."
