I don't think they have a thought process. They are too used to remembering their lines or the words to a song to even think.

Interesting this came up today. One of the quotes on my Google portal seemed to be about this very subject:

I had an epiphany a few years ago where I was out at a celebrity party and it suddenly dawned on me that I had yet to meet a celebrity who is as smart and interesting as any of my friends.

a few years back my wife and I were watching the olympics and the chinese won a medal. when they were up on the podium playing the chinese national anthem, my wife asked me "what is that music they are playing?" and i told her that was the chinese national anthem. she got the strangest look on her face and seriously asked me "you mean the other countries of the world dont have our national anthem?" well as you can imagine i was busting up laughing by this point and she asked me why. i just looked at her and said "honey, you just confirmed every blond joke in history." a few years after that she was in a 30 minute arguement with me that honey came from honeysuckle plants!! thats why i keep her around, its great entertainment lol.

the sad part of the story is, at the time she was a 3rd grade teacher! i talked her into getting out of teaching shortly after that, for the sake of the children.

My mom, who still lives in Spartanburg, SC sent me this same list on a email a while back and highlighted the one from G'ville.

And I still get asked by my friends and family when I am moving back to SC. :rotflmao:
