Ronin Profiles: Andrew

Andrew

Let’s meet some more IMAO readers. Today, it’s Andrew.


What’s the story behind your name? One day I was walking along and was blinded by a brilliant flash of light. As I stumbled around in a blind stupor I heard a booming voice declaring, “I am Fred Thompson. From this day forward you will work toward advancing my political goals under the name Andrew. No go forth and punch liberals in their dumb monkey faces.” Oh, and that’s also the name on my birth certificate.
Where do you live? Scottsbluff, Nebraska
How old are you? 18
Tell us briefly about yourself. I am a freshman at the University of Nebraska majoring in broadcasting and political science with plans to become a sportscaster. I’m also very proud to say that I have a number of family members who have served in the military, including a cousin who will begin his second tour in Iraq beginning sometime around November.
What do you think made John Edwards such a little sissy? My theory is that when he was young he was taunted constantly for having a name very similar to that of known scam artist Jonathan Edward and was regularly beaten up for his lunch money by Rosie O’Donnell
How long have you been reading IMAO? About three or four years. I first became interested in the sight when I saw the Fun Facts About The French t-shirt on Thoseshirts.com and loved it.
What’s your favorite IMAO post?
There are so many, but I’ll have to say Know Thy Enemy, Fred Thompson Facts, and IMAO Condensed are my favorites.
What’s you favorite political issue? I’m not sure I really have a favorite, but the one I talk about the most is winning in Iraq, which in a sane world wouldn’t be political at all it would be common sense. Other than that, I’m a big fan of anything that leaves liberals in a sputtering rage.
Do you have a website? If so, please tell us briefly about it. www.andrewexmachina.blogspot.com Basically I post about whatever is going on in my life that I feel the need to write about or that annoys me. I try to post regularly every Friday and whenever I have something to talk about during the week. As much as I wish I could take credit for the clever Latin title that makes me sound smart, I must confess I ripped it off from the Dennis ex Machina segments that Dennis Miller sometimes does on his radio show.
You are being attacked by zombies. Which weapon do you choose: shotgun or flamethrower? A shotgun that uses flaming shells. That way I can have the best of both worlds when killing zombies. However the most effective way is still to tell Fred Thompson the zombies want to raise his taxes.

  1. Tech issue:
    Let’s meet some more IMAO readers. Today, it’s G Fresh.
    You’ll want to edit that. Same as under the RoninProfiles picture.
    I very much like the story behind your name, Andrew.

  2. I missed it but that must have been some kind of RightWingDuck “chananigan,” Andrew. Or perhaps one of “Frank’s errors?” Good luck in your studies and enjoy it. Once it’s over, the cold, cruel world out here will try to tear you a new Scottsbluff.

  3. Hey, I know where Scottsbluff is! I have driven through there on more than one occasion. The big question is, do YOU know where Hastings, NE is? Oh and tell your cousin ‘Hoo-ah’ for me.

  4. I dare you to interview me. You will beg me to stop answering your questions.
    Much like the reporters at any Joe Biden press conference. Or, I guess, any Dennis Kucinich press conference, for that matter. But for different reasons alltogether. (is that really a word?)
    Doesn’t matter. Bring it… blog boy

  5. Speaking of military service, the Defense Information School has a very fine broadcast program. Armed Forces Radio and Television is a great way to cut your teeth while repaying student loans … just saying.
    I’m thinking about pursuing my masters in journalism through the University of Nebraska Lincoln. They have a really cool online program.

  6. Fine job Andrew.
    Most men your age could never grasp that Fred! is a superior armament; shotguns and flamethrowers are anemic by comparison.
    BTW, are you a Callhan man, or do you agree that his worthless ass should be ridden out of Lincoln on a rail?
