Let’s meet some more IMAO readers. Today, it’s charski.
What’s the story behind your name? It’s a mixture of my given name and my favorite legal escape of all time. No friends on a powder day, right?
Where do you live? Longmont, Colorado. We’re about to get our second Wal-Mart/Sams Club, so you know we’re on someone’s map.
How old are you? I feel like 25 thanks to staying in shape, but was born in ’64. That hurts just to write, but I’ve been told that a man isn’t worth a damn till he’s 50, so there’s hope for me yet.
Tell us briefly about yourself. I’m a cube monkey (don’t hurt me), I swing both ways (road AND mountain biker) and in my past I have been involved in some not well intentioned shooting contests. I’ve never shot at a monkey, but only because of location. My most painful memory is having to sell an unused Remington 7mm mag that my adopted dad willed me to pay rent. Arrgghh…
How long have you been reading IMAO? Unfortunately, only about 6 months, but I tell my friends about it.
[First rule of IMAO Club: Tell everyone about IMAO Club. Second rule of IMAO Club: Tell everyone about IMAO Club. Third rule of IMAO Club: If someone says stop, goes limp, taps out, the humor post is over.]
What’s your favorite IMAO post? It has to be your response to that peacenik about why we are really in Iraq, where you didn’t pull any punches. It was about 2 months ago, if that’s not clear enough to link to, the daily Edwards facts consistently make me spit milk through my nose.
[Those are both by Harvey. Why do I even bother to show up to work each day? -Ed.]
If you were to describe IMAO in three words, what would those be? Second favorite escape.
What’s you favorite political issue? Illegal immigration. It gets very played down in Denver papers even though a couple Illegals have killed and tried to kill some of Denver’s finest officers in the past couple of years. That and school vouchers since I have kids now. (But letting people who try to kill cops out on low bail? Please…)
Do you have a website? If so, please tell us briefly about it. I am shocked to say that I do. It’s hosted at http://finerworks.com/gallery.asp?U_ID=charski&offset=0 It’s a collection of some photographs I have taken over the years, none of which show deceased monkeys, and have nothing to do with politics.
Aquaman can talk to both fish and aquatic mammals. Do you think he can talk to penguins? That’s a tough one. I would imagine that Aquaman is an enemy of penguins because Opus (from the comic Bloom County) is a penguin, and somewhat of a left leaning peacenik. Aquaman would certainly take vengeance on Opus’s mother for raising such a softy, and in doing so would almost have to break the penguin code of communication. So, yes, Aquaman can talk to penguins, but chooses not to.
If you commented in the last post asking for participants, you’re still in the running. Thanks to everyone who has participated so far; just because you may not think you’re interesting doesn’t mean we won’t enjoy your story.
