Sorry, I didn't mean to offend.  It's just that there are lots of pervs 
out there these days and you can't be too careful (if it was a guy, that 
is - if it was a gal I might ask if she was famous like Tina and ask for 
a signed print).  Note that I said "without permission" -- I would not 
grant permission, but I would decline politely.

Best,

Ken
