Keith, I had the same reaction to the McDolby's photo. That cracked me up. And you're right - some of the offerings are really, really creepy.

All that cool cyborg stuff...I'm a Sci-Fi fan from way back. And putting two of my favorite brainacs together like that--Thomas Dolby and Stephen Hawking! Hmmm, I think they got Mr. Hawking in there twice...And oh, what was that character's name...Locutus, which was what Captain Picard [yeah, I'm a bit of a Trekker] was turned into by the Borg! Man, those guys are creative!!! ;^) Say...no comment so far about the full Thomas interview at MadPod?!? Or maybe we don't want to spoil it for others...? It was very satisfying and informative, I must say. :^) Love and high intelligence, Kara [yeah, I'm in the 'gifted' range, even though I don't act like it--I sort of figure, what with the world being as messed-up as it is, I want to make an effort to think and act as perky as possible.

I notice TMDR says that he will be doing "festivalS" (as in, plural) in Europe w/Depeche Mode. Interesting. (He also sez that the Birchmere is in Pennsylvania, oops. Heh heh - unless it's moved north, it really is in Virginia.) He also gently corrected the interviewer about the myth of him being born in Cairo.

Speaking of the pic, where'd you get that coat Thomas? I absolutely love it. Definetly makes you look like you've morphed from eccentric professor to full blown Mad Scientist.
