At least they won something… Do you know how hard I worked on coming up with “Enter Selman” by Mattalica? Not to mention, I didn’t get anything for naming a certain person Leverus last year.

Damn you, whoever won!

And the person after that. And the person after that. And the six people after them.

Actually, I was fascinated in the reverse fashion as a lad (see, I picked some things up.) I had a local comics dealer who would get 2000AD issues (only one of each, I suspect he just got them to read and then sold them.) I still have them. They’re my first thing out of the burning house (sorry, sweetie.)

Lev, shock the (web)monkeys. An eight question interview shouldn’t take two pages. Yeah, it seems like an easy way to increase hits, but I’m less and less likely to click through to a time.com story after every one of these encounters.

So is he implying that bowler hats, roundabouts and tea are interesting to us?
They’re a little interesting, I guess, but they’re not fascinating. I’ve never had a phone conversation about them.

It depends when he tried one. The old wax-paper wrapped ones were pretty terrible, but the newer ones have a wrapper that keeps them from getting rock-hard.
