Q. What is the most surprising or unexpected thing you have found out about becoming a celebrity?

A. When I make mistakes, people often blame themselves. I could drop an anvil on a stranger’s foot and he’d apologize for being in the way. The weird part is that he’d mean it.

Q. Have you ever been asked to sign a hot woman’s breasts or draw Dilbert on them?

A. Not yet. But if I draw Dogbert, I know where his nose will be.

Q. How often do people recognize you in public?

A. Locally, it happens all the time, especially in my own restaurants. When I travel I’m rarely recognized. On the road, the only people who recognize me are people who have seen my speeches or attended book signings. But there are a lot of them.

I was once on a flight where the people on both sides of me were reading my book, The Dilbert Principle. My picture is right on the back cover. The guy on my left asked me if I’d ever read it. I said, “Yes, several times.” (I finally told him who I was just to see the look on his face. Priceless.)
