Well, I've not seen his interviews, and from everything said here I don't
see that the use of the word "weird" is applicable, certainly no more so to
TC than to any number of other people.

For example, there are a lot of people who believe that drugs are not
always the answer to medical or emotional problems.  Eastern medicine
relies heavily on alternative sources of healing, there are any number of
holistic doctors and veterinarians practicing in this country as well, some
people thought you were odd for proffering the idea that by eliminating
tomatoes and potatoes from one's diet arthritis pain and stiffness could be
cured or reduced.  If all you saw was a "clip" of an interview with Matt
Lauer, then what you saw may have been taken out of context.  Sound bites
are not worth much, m'dear.  Where did you see this clip?  I'm sure it
wasn't on the News Hour with Jim Lehrer (sp?)

But, what's even more interesting is that so many people on this list, and
throughout the world, care about the personal ramblings and private lives
of people like Cruise,and Brad Pitt, and so on.  These people are ~ACTORS~
and it's in their blood to act in ways that grab our attention and keep
themselves visible in the media. Sometimes they do or say things that are
over the top, or outside the mainstream.  BFD ... The lives and behavior of
these people, for me, starts and stops when I pay my admission to the movie
theater, or rent a DVD from NetFlix.
