Hi Tom,
I guess I'm hoping you'll tell me it's possible to be happy and not too, too famous. Or that you're even happier because you're not too, too famous. Do you think some people are in it for the possible - however remote - of celebrity? I used to be in rock and roll, and now I'm in the TV business and am noticing similar reactions to pseudo-stars. What's your take? Any interest in developing catch phrases?

I think that some people are certainly press driven. Even if you are press driven, as long as you maintain the level of quality that got you there in the first place, you should be cool.
