Bill... actually, I don't think he was calling YOU a shmuck. I think he was
referring to the guy who sold him the guitar. But anyway, it is a New Year,
isn't it? So you beat me to it. Yeah, to all of you for whom it
matters.... Shana Tova, and peace on earth (will there ever be?) and all
that! :)

Actually, though I personally find the name somewhat creative (it amazes me
that people can have wild drunken moments and come up with anything
creative... on the very rare occasions I've ever had a wild drunken moment,
I've spent the next ten hours with my head in the toilet, puking...nothing
remotely creative in that)... Tolstoy did not even cross my mind. I
assumed it was some sort of reference to Leon Trotsky (aka Lev Davidovich
Bronstein), the Russian revolutionary. Amazing how a play on words can
evoke totally different images for different people.
