Somehow I get the feeling it’s gonna be just you and me on that one.

The guitarist in the band I jam with knew him, or rather his father did, and he was just telling me a story about him the other night – so it was fresh in my head.

Apparently it was [Alexandros of Antioch](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandros_of_Antioch), whose name is largely unknown for (among other reasons) the earlier belief that Praxiteles had sculpted the statue.

My first top 5…Missed Swan Lake Mozart, and Picasso. Funny that Mozrt is the most popular composer, but his symphonies are not. Off to hear Mozart’s music.
