How big of a deal is that, though? Getting someone to sign their name for you is not that impressive. Even less impressive if you have to pay them to do it, like most sports stars seem to do nowadays. But what about this? I was in a museum where it had the initials "DB" where Daniel Boone had carved is initials into a tree. I read about it and it is almost for sure authentic. Is that awesome or what? Think of going into an autograph show (if such things even exist) with a hunk of tree containing Daniel Boone's autograph. Nothing would beat that. I don't own it, but I do have a picture of it. That is a bigger deal than it sounds as it was in a museum that didn't allow photographs. I've gotten pretty good at doing that if I do say so myself. I normally have a very high guilt complex, but I don't anymore when it comes to photographs in museums. What are they trying to pull anyway? Museums are for people to see stuff and learn things. They should be encouraging people to take pictures. At the museums I've been in, its not like they're overrun with customers. Lighten up, high and mighty museum people. Or at least look the other way when I'm taking my pictures.
