Anyone had Tom Daley?
Phnar.

Interestingly they regard people in general as all idiots and so easy to manipulate.
Never having 'got' celebrity I get the feeling that people who are impressed with celebrity are perhaps simple people who are easy to manipulate. A well known person is just someone who is well known. I can appreciate a Clint Eastwood movie in the same way that I appreciate a plumber coming out to fix my boiler. Both do a good job and I applaud what they do. I don't feel the need to ask my plumber for his autograph, neither would I ask Clint Eastwood for his. Mr Eastwood and I may find common ground however in that we are both aviators, same as David Gilmour, Nick Mason, Tom Cruise and Bruce Dickinson. I could talk to them about our shared passion on an equal basis.


Barring the fact I can't afford a P-51.
