Quotation of the Week 08/20/08: John Linnell

"We just think puppets are kinda cool. We like puppets. Some of our best friends are puppets. We're puppets."
--John Linnell

I like this quotation because it gives you a glimpse into the thinking behind They Might Be Giants. The glimpse I see: At first their songs might sound a bit silly--but there is usually a deeper, more serious meaning in them. In this statement you may be thinking: "They are silly! They like puppets...and puppets are weird and scary--wait! We are ALL puppets! AAAAHHH!" Yeah, that's probably what you were thinking...
