PEOPLE I THINK ARE BRILLIANT:
1. The Coen Brothers
2. The creators of “Dr. Katz” and “Home Movies”
3. Johnny Peel
4. Kyle Ancowitz (link to his theatre group)
5. Kurt Vonnegut
6. whoever invented condiments (i.e. ranch dressing, special sauce, thousand island, etc.)
7. Ani Difranco (except she always sounds a little crazy when she talks)
I may add to this list as time goes on.
Happy birthday Katie. Hope it was a good one. Stumbled upon your page while looking for property info for the city of Taft, Ca. just clicked to see if it was really you.
if i’m so brilliant, then why aint i rich or on tv? riddle me that, frau toft 🙂
Come on Johnny, your blood is rich, and you’re on the Internet, which is better than TV.
Katie, does Ani really deserve to be included with such select company as Johnny and the makers of condiments? If you have to include a musician, at least make it Bjork. I know, I know, an insult… but come one, the woman rambles like a fumed-up Robin Williams hit over the head with cast-iron skillet. And she married a man!
Well, I think you should be rich Johnny, but I did debate whether Ani deserved to be up there with you. Besides her amazing lyrics and genius guitar playing, I think the fact she sounds crazy when she talks confirms that she’s probably a genius. Isn’t that how it works?
Hey Sarah! I probably seem pretty pathetic since my blog is the first you’ve heard of me for years. Yikes.
