THOM AND ME

I've got a poster on my wall I want to tell you about. It's of Thom Yorke, the squinty-eyed, ugly lead singer from Radiohead. But in this particular picture he's been (deliberately and obviously) airbrushed to remove all his deformities. It's a sort of comment on image and media. Fair enough.

But the thing is this. Several people have said, in all seriousness, that the airbrushed Thom Yorke looks like me. I'm not entirely sure whether I'm happy about this. You look like a freak, James, but a normal-looking one. Ta.
