I was intrigued to read Wired's post on how the music-related feeds on Twitter are mostly unimpressive... All very interesting - but at the tail end of the piece, it mentions John Cleese is a Twitterer.

We always err on the side of caution when it comes to the online profiles of celebrities and the like; at worst, it's a fan or spoofer and if not, probably someone in the office doing it on their behalf. And that's cheating.
'John Cleese' reliably informs me that he is John Cleese - "sold ranch, new life beckons. who knows where i may land? nice to be able to move about a bit, frankly" - but I remain sceptical.
Have asked him to answer the media industry equivalent of the 'mother's maiden name' question in an attempt to verify his identity...
