A few years ago I read an article in Guitar Player magazine about a 
certain rock and roller (who they never named) having G A S...guitar 
acquistion syndrome. Said he had guitars on every flat surface in his 
house. I guess that means Neal has MAS (MOPAR acquistion syndrome). 
Unfortunately, I don't think there's any cure for this sickness, so he 
might as well keep buying them up.
