Ciao, Rob! Amerikanski? Italiano? Not that it matters, I am just a curious chap.
How far way from the Savinelli factory are you?
Welcome.

Welcome aboard. Italy? You're in food heaven, north or south, though the styles are quite different. My wife spent time there with friends who run a NY/Queens restaurant frequented by Tony Bennett among others. My wife does some mighty fine Italian dishes, though we're not Italian.

We need more ZZ Top fans. A few years ago, we saw them at a small venue in Southern MD, on the water. I was walking back along the dock, before the show, hoping for a place to smoke my pipe. I rounded a corner of a boat house and Billy G. was smoking a cigarette. I said hello, and that I didn't mean to intrude, just looking for a place to enjoy a pipe for a few minutes before the show. He gave me that point and said "cool man", which I took to mean it was OK to hang out. He finished his smoke a few minutes later, I said peace, flashed him the peace sign, and he headed for the stage. That was a great evening!
Welcome to the forum!
