Randomly, I do 'Exclusives' with forum members based on what I already know of them and try to expand on their minute details in an effort to make our fellow posters more human.
Newspapers always detail the big events - which amount to nothing more than, "I like helping people", Jan Citizen said, today.
I like to get down to the finer details.
When was the last time you ate a slice of Velvetta singles?
Left shoe first? or right shoe?
Here, me and Blastgirl sit down for an 'Oprah-esque' interview.
....I'm Oprah.
[I'm not sure if I've done a Blastgirl interview before (because I can't remember who I did, already, after so many months.
If I did, already, than this is her second appearance on my show.)
***
The commercials end as the camera swings toward the stage.
Sitting in the shadows are two silhouttes, fake chatting before the microphones are connected.
The lights come on and our two silhouttes become people. They are Mahnarch, and his guest Starlette, Blastgirl.
Mahnarch speaks to the audience but, nothing is heard.
Mahnarch bangs his lapel mic.
Nothing.
He gets mad and storms off, back stage - only to have a sound technician's silhoutte strangled to near-death behind the false New York City back drop.
Silence.
Mahnarch returns to the stage with a hand-held microphone he bought for $20 at Best Buy.

So, Blastgirl. May I call you 'BG'? [He shoves the mic into her face]
*Blastgirl starts to say 'No' but, Mahnarch cuts her off*
So, BG, you're a big time moderator and a heavy-weight when it comes down to "Keepin' it real".
1) How did you become a moderator on Lewasite - for those that don't know?
2) As a heavy weight.....how many numbers are on that scale? [You can say, "Less than 200" if you want to keep it vague.]
[[You can say, "Less than 125", if you want to increase traffic to the site.]] ;D
3) What is "real" for you? Language in posts? Keeping everything PG-13ish?....Do you believe in Sasquatch?
4) What pre-set station is your radio, in your car, set to when you press #4? (genre, since 94.5FM might (will) be different from elsewhere).
5) When is the last time you used a butter knife?
6) You have a dog named Pirate? What color is the tip of his tail? (Most dog's tips are different colored than the rest).
7) How close to you is the nearest Burger King?
8) Smoker, or no? (Dang it!, there's that 'Minnesota Nice' accent)
9) If I were to drop a water balloon on you from a second story window as you walked down the street. What's the first word out of your mouth? (PG-13, please)
10) Who's blonder? You or your avatar?
10.5) Who's taller?
11) Thanksgiving dinner. Turkey or Ham? [or both?]
12) What kind of computer monitor do you have? [LCD? Widescreen? Big Ol' heathen tubed thing from the '50s that takes up an entire room?...]
13) Let's say you're sailing on the open ocean and get knocked overboard. A shark starts swarming toward you and lunges at you!
Do you:
A) Scream like a girl.
B) Punch it in the face (with malice).
C) Run so fast that you can walk/run on top of the water (a la Scooby Doo)?
14) I'm sure you have a TV on, nearby.
What's on? Aside from commercials.
[No! Even, what commercial! - at the point of typing! (more or less, what product?)]
15) Subway.... Hot or cold sandwich?
16) What color is your left sock?
[....what? I've been in a situation where my left is gray and my right is white, with a gray heel and toe....but, I'm a guy.]
17) Trekkie or Jedi?
(At this point, I'm trying to round it out with a total of 20 questions but, I'm running thin.)
18) When you play air guitar (and we all know you do - admit it!) during an awesome song, are you a right handed player, left handed? [which hand plays the fretboard?]
19) ......What.....hmmm.....Do...hmmmm.........How...... hmmmm
Dang it! I got nothing more.
Maybe tomorrow.
