Me and my new BFF, Dr. Oliver Sacks

Okay, maybe only in my mind!

I did send him a pack of crazy Obama buttons, and he did receive them and will be wearing them on Inauguration Day.

His assistant mentioned that she had been trying to find "Carolina for Obama" bumper stickers, so I told her that I would keep looking here after they returned to NYC. I never found the bumper stickers but I found some GREAT buttons.

In addition to several different "Carolina for Obama" buttons I also sent:
"Scientists for Obama"
"Cryptozoologists for Obama"
"Large Hadron Colliders for Obama"
"Banjos for Obama"

His latest book is Musicophilia, and he has a rather quirky sense of humour so I thought he would enjoy them!


Yes, I think this is probably the most unusual item I have ever sent a celebrity. And I'm okay with that.
