Well, that (the dead part) rules out Alex Rodriguez.

Still thinking...

No, I didn't catch that at all. He's one of my mom's favorites - she has a degree in sculpture from The Tyler School of Art at Temple University.

I recently talked her out of a funk she was in because she decided not to go see an exhibit of his work. Her vision is really almost gone, and she was depressed that all her friends were going to a nearby town to see the exhibit. I reminded her how much we liked the Rodin Museum in Paris (she's been there many times) and managed to convince her that her memories of the work in that location were probably much better than seeing them again in a less than perfect touring facility. The museum in Paris is being renovated, so some of the pieces are on tour. Anyway, Rodin has come up lately for me! Very Happy
