The address on the asa does not control your source addresses of your protected hosts. Couple of options, you use your pi space behind the asa exclusively and not nat with "static (inside,outside) pi pi netmask 255.255.255.0" or use pi on the outside of asa and nat to inside private addresses. Using rfc 1918 on the outside interface of the asa means its not going to be able to be a vpn endpoint with remote internet hosts

Sorry, just confused here...

So on the outside interface of the ASA...connecting into the Internet Router
I could use private addresses?

I'd think that I would want my outbound Internet web traffic to be sourced
from my Provider Independant IP subnet.  How would that work?
