4/25/96  Bob, Dylan, a member of the Rolling Stones (Keith Richards or      
         Mick Jagger) and I are sitting on a bench near a shopping center.  
         Bob Dylan has a pile of tapes of one of his mid-80s albums         
         (Empipre Burlesque?), and we decide to see who can throw a copy   
         the farthest.  Bob Dylan throws first.  It's a little short, I     
         think.  I go next, but don't throw it as far as him.  The Rolling  
         Stone goes last, and throws the farthest.  We're trying to get them
         all the way to a building.  I say the building is farther away     
         than it looks because the area is flat.
