Ronin Profiles: DesertElephant
* * * * What's the story behind your name? Well, I live in Arizona and I've always held very Conservative political beliefs. Even since I became aware of politics, I've always been an Evil tool of the Reagan/Bush/Cheney/Rove/Halliburton cabal. At least I would be if they ever returned my calls. Where do you live? I live in Phoenix, AZ. I've been here since I was 5 years old. And, even though I've been here a few decades, I still like to whine about the heat. It's my only muckadoo indulgence. How old are you? I am 27 years of age and turn 28 next month. Tell us briefly about yourself. I have lived in Arizona most of my life, raised by a hard-working blue-collar hero. My Father. He raised 5 kids for several years on much, much less than I made an hour when I started doing desktop support. And he never thought anyone owed him anything other than what he had earned. He's the reason I am the hardworking, heartless neocon I am today. Also, I am IMAO's (at least one of them) resident Gimp. I was crippled by a motorcycle accident 4 years ago. Strangely, I never blamed Bush for it. And, though I could sit at home fat and lazy on all your taxes, I choose to be useful to the community. I beat hippies with my cane. I also enjoy clubbing baby harp seals. What liberal do you most want to punch in his dumb monkey face? Oooo… toughie. I suppose, if I had to choose, it would be George Soros. He is the man and money behind the impotent rage of the libtard horde. But, can I use a baseball bat instead? I really would like to do a number on this "champion of the poor" who grew fat and rich by killing the economy of nations. What's your favorite IMAO post? I have a favorite segment, but not necessarily a favorite post. The Frank Editorials are awesome. And, I'm beginning to really like this segment as well. Also, growing in the polls is IMAO: Condensed. Short, sweet, and sure to send the MFL's here at work to poo-flinging. What's you favorite political issue? Ugh. This I have no favorite in. Politics is going to drive me to an early grave. In much the same way Heroin does. I hate how politics anger me, but I can't stay away. If pressed to give up the issue closest to home, it would be a tie between the GWOT and 2A issues. I loved my Country and my guns. Do you have a website? If so, briefly tell us about it. Sure. I have a blog at http://absurdspices.blogspot.com. I started it while I still was riled up about current events. I haven't published anything lately as I've grown a bit apathetic and lazy when it comes to blogging. That and I end up nearly having an apoplexy from all the rants I have in my noggin trying to claw their way out at once. I named the blog absurd spices because I believe Absurdity, and not variety, is the true spice of life. Heck, maybe I'll write something again. Hard to get motivated when I'm constantly busy. No wonder KOS has so many posts in a day. If you had a death ray, would you use if for good instead of evil? I would take out the Moon, since you can't seem to get it nuked. Then I'd use it to turn the Arabian Peninsula and most of the Middle East into a very quiet place. You can judge if that's good or evil. I think it's great. Also, I'd take over the world and declare myself Emperor. How much are you asking for Said Death Ray anyway? Do you take PayPl? * * * * If you commented that you want to be included before, you're still in the running. You can also comment in this post; just make sure you fill in your e-mail on the comment form (only I can see it so you don't have to worry about getting spam). Eventually we'll get to everyone. Thanks to everyone who has participated so far! 17 Responses To "Ronin Profiles: DesertElephant"
"And, though I could sit at home fat and lazy on all your taxes, I choose to be useful to the community." That's awesome... and very refreshing! Good for you! (oh, please count me in, I really like this segment) #1 - Posted by: RachelK on July 24, 2007 07:40 PMHappy early birthday DesertElephant! I sincerely hope that one day you will have the chance to punch George Soros in his dumb, monkey, self-righteous, leftard, troll face. #2 - Posted by: No-L on July 24, 2007 07:52 PMSo, you could actually remember Phoenix before it got WAY too crowded? I lived there for a few years, and during that few years I discovered that I was a conservative. I guess that place does it to ya. That and listening to KFYI. #3 - Posted by: ChrisA on July 24, 2007 08:21 PMI have a blog at http://absurdspices.blogspot.com. But you haven't updated since MARCH!! I keep emailing you to update it . I know Mesa and Chandler are a hotbed of evil politics (at least as long as my inlaws are still there) Anyway DE, when the hubby and I get rich enough to get out of this crappy blue state and move back to AZ, we will meet you down in Tempe by the giant scary jackrabbit golems and have some coffee. #4 - Posted by: shimauma on July 24, 2007 08:21 PMDang it. Once again Frank chooses someone I already know is smarter, funnier, and better informed than me. Can't find one loser in the bunch huh? Ummmmm, just kidding DesertElephant, nice to meet you and even better to know ya have strength and character so few of us possess. #5 - Posted by: DohXs on July 24, 2007 08:54 PMYou haven't interviewed any girls Frank. Don't you like girls? Great interview Elephant! I'm in Gilbert and there's nothing dry about this heat. #6 - Posted by: jonag on July 24, 2007 09:15 PMI lived in the Phoenix area (Tempe) for a long summer back in 1987. I loved it and hated it. Long story. But the Bride and I are hoping to make a winter trip down there sooner than later. I miss it sometimes, in a kind of dark, guilty way. #7 - Posted by: PaleoMedic on July 24, 2007 09:31 PMThanks to all who commented. Shim, I look forward to the coffee and the day I actually get my act together and actually blog again. Paleo, email me at haggismachaggis@hotmail.com and we'll grab a few brews when you're in my fine home of AZ. Chris, KFYI is my lifeline to sanity with Nappy/Kyl/McCain in office. It also brings me frustrations as I hear the latest idiocy of the left. Thankfully, JD lets me spout off on the air every now and then when I call. You know you can stream it, right? No-L, thanks for the birthday wishes, but I still have to wait until 8/25. I call it Jessmas. =+) And, to FrankJ, I thank you again for the opportunity to share myself with my IMAO Ronin compatriots. #8 - Posted by: DesertElephant on July 24, 2007 10:12 PMYep. I stream every once in a while. It's been a while, but I may have even heard you on there. The Bruce Jacobs show is my favorite. Always great for a laugh too. Especially when he'd get worked up and yell shamnesty or about 'The Rag' losing subscriptions. I can't help but miss it there every once in a while. I used to go hiking North Mountain with my dog regularly. #9 - Posted by: ChrisA on July 24, 2007 10:19 PMA fellow near-native of Arizona! Greetings from Mesa! #10 - Posted by: Exurban Jon on July 24, 2007 10:32 PMArizona, eh? It is most certainly very hot there...but not as hot as Texas. #11 - Posted by: Luipaard on July 24, 2007 10:38 PMbut I still have to wait until 8/25. That's my mom's birthday! Freaky... DesertElephant, happy birthday from a fellow crip (throws up gang sign that looks like a vulcan greeting). I'd like be included in this frank (does a spot on rodger rabbit) p-p-p-please. bid all here peace love and understanding. I had a friend from Yuma, AZ. Heard tell that when folks from Yuma die and go to hell, they ask for a blanket. I might as well throw my hat into the ring here, seeing as I've already got a quote on the sidebar anyway... #14 - Posted by: No One Consequence on July 25, 2007 12:35 AMDE - Great to know more about you. Karl Marx once said that the cane favored by industrialists of his time could be mistaken for a bludgeon...that was right before Frederick Vanderbilt beat him to death. So you've got that going for you... #15 - Posted by: Gunga on July 25, 2007 07:34 AMI think I'm going to be left out because I have used too many different names when commenting here. Also, I changed my e-mail address. However, I am really enjoying this feature. Keep it up, Frank! #16 - Posted by: beez on July 25, 2007 07:38 AMI need to come up with a clever name for myself to start leaving comments under so that I will get interviewed. Something like 1asterisk or Heavy D or Commentotron. #17 - Posted by: Derek on July 25, 2007 09:53 AMPost a comment
