Not-so-frequently asked questions...

Q: Was this how you intended your blog to be?

A: Somewhat. I had originally thought that I would be writing some cutting edge humor pieces seeing as I love cutting edge humor like Mr. Show, Family Guy, David Cross, etc. Unfortunately, I don't have the spine to back it up and I have a lot of shame. I'd love to be all crass and controversial, but I'm not that crass and controversial in real life, so I guess my persona online is the same. And another thing, many people at my old job and now my new job know about my blog. I told a few people, who then told other people. So now I'm censoring myself from being crass because I love my job (and the money that goes with it) and don't want to lose it. Bill once complained that he would publish something on my blog, but that it probably wasn't the right audience since he was going to do a write up on all of the porn junk emails he gets. He's probably right on that one.


Q: Why don't you post more?

A: I'm a huge slacker and it takes me to get a hair up my ass to do anything that no one is paying me for. If I was getting money for this, I'd be updating this all day long. Also, I commute a lot and time is precious for me. I hope to write more once I move up to Omaha. Oh and getting a newer and faster computer would be nice, too.


Q: Would you like comments?

A: Even if you tell me that I suck, please comment on my stuff. I want feedback, but mostly positive feedback if that's possible. Actually, I have really sensitive feelings so a negative comment will most likely ruin my day.


Q: Are all of these stories true?

A: Unless I mention it specifically, absolutely.


Q: Is Bill really that much of a hot-headed bastard?

A: It's probably a combination of him being a hot head and me egging him on. I can be a hot head, too.


Q: What does your wife think of this blog?

A: She doesn't. I guilted her into reading it once. She said it was kind of amusing, but felt that I took too long to get to a punchline. Keep in mind, she doesn't think I'm funny and equates being married to me living with a 14-year-old as I'm constantly slinging double entendres her way and cracking jokes. She mainly tunes it out...


Q: Is there anything that you won't write about?

A: I haven't even broached the subject of my in-laws. I don't know why. For one thing, they have no idea that I have a blog. For another thing, my wife never reads this blog, so how would she know?

I'm just afraid that she'll kill me if I do. That's the main reason.


Q: Did you read my story yet?

A: No, Bill. I haven't. Working on it right now.
