This time from Dan Mega, who funnily enough, cut and run. He gave me the questions, then bolted as far as he could. Probably scared to death of the power of my answers, I'm sure. Anyway, as usual, my answers italicized.
Bart, I would thank you for you're time. However, you should be
thanking me. I have a few questions to ask of you. Answer them
correctly or be cast off my bridge.
1)Where did you grow up and how far do you currently live from there?I grew up in the Baltimore suburb of Glen Burnie, MD. Plenty of derogatory nicknames for it, but one of my favs is "where the ghetto meets the gunrack." I live exactly 0.0 miles from where I grew up. I inherited my parents house, and woo, free house. Casa Del Bart has pretty much always been Casa Del Bart.
2)Who is your best friend in the whole wide world, and why? Note: your
wife doesn't count. Thats just what men say to prevent getting beaten
by female fists of fury.Well, since you arbitrarily eliminated my actual answer with rules that don't actually apply to me, I'll go with my friend Ryan. We're pretty much the same person, and that actually makes for good friendship as opposed to butting heads.
3)What was the most "popular" band that you've ever done the sound
engineering for?That's easy. No one. The nature of the job means that I mix only smaller outfits, and usually one of my co-workers handles live sound mixing for bands. Not that I never do it, but it's not my "forte." But, if one of these bands ever does break big, I'll be sure to crow about it. I did put a lapel mic on Ray Lewis once for a video shoot.
4)Is Caddyshack the greatest movie of all time?No, but it's definitely on the short list of best sports movies of all time.
5)What was your favorite quote from Rodney Dangerfield in Caddyshack?
Was it "hey you wanna earn $14 the hard way"?No, but that's definitely a good one. I'd have to go with "I hear this place is restricted, Wang, so don't tell 'em you're Jewish, okay?"
6)Are you willing to accept that Brian in Oxford truly is king of all internets?
No. No offense to him or anything, but somehow I doubt he'd want such a dubious honor. Plus, if he was, I'd get so many more referral hits off his page.
7)Do you think you could defeat David McMahon in spirited game of thumb wars?Hard call. I mean, I've got pretty strong thumbs from the years of Nintendo, but David's got years of experience. It'd be a Pay-Per-View worthy throw down, I'm sure.
8)Who is the greatest blogger of all time, besides Dan Mega?How do you fit your head through your doorways? Or did you get those made special? Anyway, Kevin Smith is up there to me.
9)Doesn't a Chipolte Burrito with ranch sound excellent right now?Not so much with the ranch, but Chipotle is always on the brain. ADDICTIVE CHEMICALS I TELL YOU.
10)I'm going to be away for a week. Will my minions (I mean readers) miss me?I know I will, but be warned, with every passing day my aim improves...
Boy, I enjoy those. Anyone else want to step up? Hell, I may even pull a Dawn and get you all to ask questions via comments, load up on them and then gatling gun your backsides with them all at once.
Well that sounds like a damn challenge, one interview coming right up.
ReplyDelete1. As a stranger who knows near to nothing about you how would you describe yourself to me, physically, emotionally and mentally?
2. Your invited to a party at Chevy Chases house, but your told he will constantly be in his 'Fletch' persona, do you go and what dish do you take along with you?
3. You write Haikus, what is the attraction to this form of poetry, and can you make one up about anything
4. How is your new mazda going, you chose grey, is this a display of your personality or something more simple like the dealer only having that color?
5. You obviously enjoy baseball, why, it seems so slow and confined. What did you think of that whole Barry Bonds steriods thing, and what do you think the government should do about it.
6. Asshole drivers seem to only you, does anything else and have you ever acted on any rage enduced moments you may have had.
Hi Bart-Man,
ReplyDeleteI thoroughly enjoyed that interview. Thumb wars? Hmmm - now I'll have to confess to the time I lost a bout of squaw wrestling up in the Yukon.
Will post the story in the next week or so ....
If I haven't done so by next Thursday, get on my case bigtime!
Cheers
David
I can't wait until you post the answers to the next interview. That should be a good one!
ReplyDeleteThat Mr Mega really is quite full of himself, isn't he? =P
ReplyDeleteI have to say... I'm relieved that what may be coined as "pulling a Dawn" does not have a negative connotation to it. May you have more luck than I did this past time. Apparently, I am not very questionable. =P Then again, I am not nearly as interesting as yourself. ;-)
