A New Authorguy Interview- Comments

So that happened...

Nothing you didn't already know. Nothing to see here. Move along please...

Whoops, I read it before I saw your post here. Sorry...

Quote:

“Yeah, sure, I’d eat a friend if I was stuck on Mt. Hood with no other way to live, or, you know, if they started getting whiny. Who wouldn’t?” You’ve got to love that “can do” spirit in people.

Love that line!

Nice interview, Chris. I really enjoyed reading it. Each interview may cover a lot of the same ground, but your perspective on the questions always seems to shift slightly, bringing something fresh to subjects that some of us long-time fans feel very familiar with. I particularly enjoyed your art appreciation discussion.

Me too. That was my favorite bit. And it made me desperate to go to the Chicago Art Institute again. Sigh...

So, here's me in the MIDWEST thinking "Aha, Authorguy has a new book out next year. Hope he does a tour, that would be great, I could go and get a book signed."

Then



Bam.

He's not coming to the midwest.

Bollocks and bloody hell!

Well yeah, what do you expect us to do? Besides, I have it good authority from my favorite AG that it would probably taste like Spam. Of course, then you're gonna have the whiny guy trying to be funny with, "Spam! But I don't like Spam!" But THAT'S when you eat him.


Anywho, don't think I didn't see that mention of coming to P-town this summer Mister AG. You bringing Chuck?

Thanks for sharing the interview with us, Chris. As some of your most avid fans, you know that we never tire of your comments, and, of course, we would really like to hear more about, "when I was the king of Austria."

Your discussion of art appreciation was inspiring, but not at all surprising from someone with such an inquisitive, far-ranging, and open mind.

My only disappointment was hearing that there will be no, "Jesus, The Second Coming: Biff Teaches Him How" sequel to Lamb. I was really looking forward to those 100 mile-high tidal waves when He loses control during a massive orgasm. (sigh)

I'm so glad I don't live in Indiana any more.

More fun for when I have time- looking forward to it!

I’m pushing for them to let me go back to Chicago, Minneapolis, Madison, and St. Louis in April. We’ll see how that goes.

Chicago's pretty darn close to Indiana. I may go to that one if I can roll it into some other vacationy thing. I'll have 4 weeks of vacation in 2009 too
