Five Questions
The wife was handed five questions from Mob and has asked me to formulate answers of my own here and let the world see them and judge me. Here goes...
1. What got you into the blog world in the first place; was it something you read about, did you know someone who did it, etc?
It would be a horrible lie to even try to say that I have a foot in the blog world. I wander in every few months with a post and hope that my wife tells people that I wrote something new. I would like to get into some sort of steady blogging rhythm, but right now I just really don't have the time or discipline to do so. Maybe after I start working closer to home...IF I ever start working closer to home.
2. What was the first film you bought with your own money to watch over and over again, be it on DVD, VHS, Betamax...and is it a film that you still like today?
The first film I ever owned was given as a Christmas gift...a VHS copy of Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, for which I actually do still have a warm nostalgic place in my heart. The first one I bought with my own money, I believe, was The Nightmare Before Christmas. I still watch that one at least once a year and know all the songs by heart.
3. Since celebs always want to speak for the world about how we should be pitching in and saving the world, who would you choose to represent us the best?
Henry Rollins has a way of making a point in such a way that you kinda feel like an asshole if you disagree with him. He has a way with words like no other, and is physically intimidating enough to get the job done.
4. What do you think is the most unlikely comic-book to film translation, the one that no one will ever be able to translate properly? (No fair cheating and naming the existing ones that shouldn't have been made...)
I have two here.
Milk and Cheese is a brilliant comic book, but the content could never be a two hour long feature film. 
The other is Lobo. In order to do a Lobo movie with any justice or accuracy, it would be too violent and gory to receive the R rating. In the comics I've seen him stuff a fat man feet first into a toilet until just his head is visible, remove a victim's jaw with his hook, and rip a guy's arm off and beat him with it. But, hey, they've been getting away with some fucked up shit in the movies these days, so who knows.
5. Tell me the type of music that you like least, then tell me the artist from that genre that you find the least annoying. The lesser of two evils, if you will
I have to agree with the wife and say that the modern R&B is the worst thing since Syphilis. I remember working at a music store and it blew my mind to see how many fans R Kelly had. That mother fucker is the most boring, every song is the damn same, makes me want to drill holes into my own head to drown out the music, no talent ass clown I have ever seen with a record deal. The one that I can tolerate the most off the top of my head would be Macy Gray. She's a pretty groovy lady with a smokey voice that I can almost get down with.
There you have it. I'll have a new blog in the next couple of months. Stay tooned!

I'd love to see a Milk and Cheese cartoon though it'd probably get up fucked like practically everything else comix related.
