Russell Brand

I watched a documentary on Russell Brand last night, and it got me wondering a few things.  First of all, what the hell is he up to nowadays?  I haven't heard anything since the general election.  I imagine he is still preaching his hippy social ideologies, but just that the media are no longer interested so he doesn't get the attention he once had.  But the other thing this documentary had me wondering, is he the absolute polar opposite to me?  We are not of dissimilar ages, but we have lived totally different lives in every conceivable aspect.  And we are at the total opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to character, personality, beliefs and outlook.  It made for a fascinating documentary.
