Frank Answers: Cars, Bumperstickers, EBay, Jumping Chinamen, Monkey Slaughter, Selecting a Handgun, Trading Space, Blogparents, and Frankisms
Time to answer questions from contest winners. Some of them snuck in double questions... but, whatever. * * * * Carl from Timonium, MD writes: Yeah. Get any convertible and be as tall as you want. Just lookout for the height warning on bridges and tunnels. As for bumper stickers, what would they say?
I'm not sure, but he might get more mileage if it came in an authentic Dukes of Hazard lunchbox.
As anyone knowledgable in physics can attest, when you jump, not only are you pulled to the Earth, but the Earth is pulled towards you (just to an extremely small degree). Thus 2 billion Chinamen jumping in one spot would throw us out of orbit. Luckily, there is only 515,637,587 Chinamen (and 493,995,993 Chinawomen and 289,214,044 Chinakids) so the question is moot.
I definitively answered the woodchucking question here, and hypothetical chucking is unaffected by which party holds the White House. I'd probably try to go the Axis of Monkeys route, but then go into a killing spree due to my monkey rage, destroying most of the world and any city with a zoo that has a monkey house.
Get a decent caliber (it should start with a '4'); other than that, try guns out and see what feels good to you. Don't worry if your gun looks froofy; criminals tend not to stop making fun of you as soon as you land the first shot. I'd trade spaces with Kim du Toit. He'd decorate my place with guns all over the walls, and then I'd decorate his place with tie-dye, peace symbols, and clowns. When he'd get back to see what I had done, I'd have a room full of guns to keep me safe. Heh heh. Blogchildren are bastard children, not chosen by their parents. Whoever inspired you to make a blog is your blogfather or blogmother. Thus, the puppy blender, whether he likes it or not, is my blogfather, and, to a lesser extent, Eugene Volokh who I also read before starting my own blog. You know, he's one of the few big, right-of-center bloggers left who never linked to me. I'll get him one of these days... Q4: The other day I was typing on my blog and used the word "French Looking" and realized that it was a Frankism. What Frankism would you most like to see enter the American vernacular? Favorite words include: Muckadoo, Terrorist Larva, Puppy Blender. As for my own terms, Puppy Blender is already out there. I'd like to see more use of muckadoo, though. To me, it fills a need. Hippy is too specific for whom I dislike (images of the unshaven and unwashed but not the college professors and journalists). Liberal is too general (there are a few liberals who can debate coherently and don't hate America). So muckadoo is a great term for all the people I dislike. Muckadoos! Your days are numbered! * * * * If you have questions for Frank Answers™... then win one of my contest.

To Frank's credit, he answered all four questions! I gave him a choice between 3 out of the 4. Or he could make up his own. What integrity i tells ya. What about "Very Important Hair"? Is that Original Frank J? #2 - Posted by: shell on July 16, 2004 01:25 PMI doubt it. I don't even remember saying it. "Red Dot Diplomacy" is a Frank original. #3 - Posted by: Frank J. on July 16, 2004 01:33 PMactually, i didn't volunteer (that ducky likes to twist the truth, he does). i kept getting annoyed reading his blog, because it was so reader un-friendly that it just beat me down. so i kept sending him suggestions so my poor eyes could get a break. that's right, all those improvements are owed to me (now if only we could fix those jumbled comments). so anyway, i told ducky i should get some credit for that and might take a page out of harvey's book and adopt him as a blogchild. you inspired him to blog, frank, so that would make you his blogfather. #4 - Posted by: sarahk on July 16, 2004 01:34 PMIt was "Important Looking Hair", and I'm pretty sure I spit coffee all over my monitor when I first saw it, so it must be a Frankism. www.imao.us/archives/001181.html You need to start a letter writing campaign to the people at the dictionary companies to ask why "Muckadoo" isn't listed. Try to prove the liberal bias in the media by the fact that they never use the word muckadoo. #7 - Posted by: LibertyBob on July 16, 2004 01:51 PMKerry's hair is more Important Looking, whereas Edwards has Shiny Happy Hair. #8 - Posted by: shell on July 16, 2004 01:55 PMsuper lucky happy fun hair #9 - Posted by: Connecticut Yankee on July 16, 2004 02:15 PMi like "back off, muckadoo!" or just the logo w/ the "unfair..." part. #10 - Posted by: sarahk on July 16, 2004 02:21 PMBumper sticker ideas: Bumper sticker ideas Shakespearean: Silly: Hmmm. I'm the bastard blogchild of Bill Whittle, Frank J., and Stephen den Beste. Disturbing, but it explains a lot.
I've taken to calling John Kerry "JoKe." I think a great bumper sticker would just say: WAIT JUST A DAMNED MINUTE. Is Frank the child of two blogfathers? And no Blogmother? And did the professor and the professor, well, are they married then? Or is Frank the bastard child of unmarried blogfathers. Now that's just sick. Or as another Frank would say, peverse. #16 - Posted by: AMB on July 16, 2004 05:07 PMIn your description of Kerry, I believe you omitted "haughty". And I don't think BOTW usually uses "liberal". That's implied. #17 - Posted by: Bill on July 16, 2004 05:19 PMLooks like the bumper sticker idea would be a hit. ^_^ How goes the last contest? And which caption did SarahK like the best? -007 #18 - Posted by: 007 on July 16, 2004 05:33 PMFrank - with all due respect, I have to disagree with your definition of blogfather: http://badexample.mu.nu/archives/037501.php #20 - Posted by: Harvey on July 17, 2004 10:44 AMProzessoren http://elektronik.preiswert.eu.com/liste_3035191/Elektronik_Foto_Kategorien_Computerzubehoer_Prozessoren.php Post a comment
