So FTR:
Smokey Doyle (sounds more like a jazz singer)
Kathryn Boroughgate (sounds more like a Bronte heroine)
2CV B12 Compound (yay, one that works!)

I had heard the latter.

First pet and Street you grew up on.

Mine was Taffy Rabbit Run.

very simple one here. This one is not random. I looked for a good picture first, then hit random page until I got a woman's name. (This is a fictional character) I did use the first quote:

There are some amazing shots on flickr. I never browsed that site. I used to store some there, but I guess they've evolved the site to something more.

I like the font you chose for the album title. Very 80's cocaine party font....It makes me want to flip it over and chop out some lines on the back.

I just use MS Paint. And the quote was from that politico who's just dropped out of the prez race, Bobby Jindal. Does that change your mental image?
