on polymaths...
Brian May, the lead guitarist of Queen, re-registered and revised his 37 year old abandoned thesis draft on space dust and got Ph.D. on astrophysics in 2008.
Don’t forget that Ken Jeong—who got his medical license from Chapel Hil—is now an accomplished actor and comedian.
We also got Miuccia Prada. The granddaughter of the famous Mario Prada is a doctor of political science from University of Milan.
...and I thought my favourite pornstar with masters degree in microbial engineering was cool.

April
"Hi man, it's me." I heard that beautiful voice, over many miles away. "Is it a good time to call?" My watch indicates it was still 8 pm over her place. "Yeah, it's fine. totally. How are you?" Something came up. Her tone is not very usual. "I'm good, how are things going on down there?" Not to sound too enthusiactic, I toned down my voice. "Great. I just came home from party. What's up?" Ah. She maybe a bit drunk... or sleepy. "I'm just calling to catch up with you..." I glanced at my wallet. She bought me that last year. "Hey listen, actually I already met someone. I'm sorry." *hangs up*
