Why I want to meet Blaux, in a nutshell, (and also in a neatly packaged, pretty-red-bow-on-top, “every back on board the submarines!” sort of way.)

• Blaux; we’re taking on water. The bucket has a hole in it, dear liza, dear liza. What is to be done? Blaux would know!

• Consider if you will, Japanese design motifs. Did Blaux have a hand in this? I think the answer is `Yes!’

• If a train leaves Omaha, Nebraska at 3:02pm traveling at approximately sixty two miles per hour, what would Blaux say upon viewing the corn-fields-a-plenty?

• Blaux is rumored for having once served in the White House Press Corps. What color are the presidental mugs? Blaux might know, but then again.. Blaux might not be able to tell us.

• Who is Blaux? The world wants to know.

1. His voice sounds like warm chocolate chip cookies.
2. He’s given me Red House Painters (and more) and was excited when I gave him the Weakerthans.
3. He knows how I feel about truffles
4. He can be Henry Miller and I’ll be Anais Nin.
5. He’ll play guitar while I sing.
6. He’s sweet, generous and completely crazy.
7. He’s one of the few people who really understands why I freak out when my sister is in Iraq.
8. He remembers my unbirthdays.
9. Woobie. ‘nuff said.

1.) Madtown!
2.) Master Gardner!
3.) My best friend!
4.) Meddlesome monikers.
5.) My other left foot.

Evil apples. They put the ever lovin’ fear of god into me, (I got this thing about fruit) and I believe that angniks has the KEY to our survival.

(That, plus I’m really curious to know how to spell “angniks”. )

Not only does he share my (admittedly silly and surreal) sense of humor, but he’s into cooking and music – and apparently has a collection of hoodies that I could steal without guilt!

Is she really that tall?

..and..

Lord almighty, I haven’t had a crush like this since 8th grade!

The top ten reasons I want to meet Sabryn, (in all their surreal and silly glory)

10.) Sabryn is… just smiling, yet her picture is NOT! Is she incapable of smiling, yet she wishes not to? Is it a plot twist??! It is a mystery, I say!

9.) I’ve never met anyone from Collierville, TN.

8.) In addition to meeting Sabryn, I’d also like to meet Sab with her guitar. Perhaps we could introduce our two guitars, see if they hit it off?

7.) She’s the only person I can think of who’d give me an honest opinion about my beard and it’s one of those, `you’ve sort of got to see it’ things.

6.) I’ve been dying for a game of candy land or chutes and ladders with Sabryn.

5.) We share a similar interest in mustards.

4.) I wonder what Sabryn would think of the mountains here?

3.) I’d like to see if Sabryn can identify the curious smells in my hallway. I’m guessing curry but it could very well be greek?!

2.) I don’t believe that Sabryn is real. I think she’s an android sent here from Mars to relentlessly improve the grammatical situation on earth.

..and the number one reason I want to meet Sabryn is..

1.) I’ve plenty of large comfy hoodies that I need to (finally) part ways with and I can’t think of anyone else who’d appreciate them..

..I’m currently covering one of his songs, “One Great City” and would like to know if it’s ok.

Just how self-involved could some of these questions be? For chrissake taking one example:

“A question people often ask about me”.

I can see me posting this one; “Gosh folks, well a question people often ask Mous is, `Hey mous, how do you keep your skin looking so radiant and healthy?’ Well folks, Mous is here to tell you that the best way to keep your skin looking as healthy as mine would be to dive your asses out to the New Mexico desert, over there by Jornada del Muerto and don’t stop until you see “Alamagordo Test Site’. (Don’t worry, this is where they test the good dirt!) Grab some of that dust and make sure to rub it all over your face. Take some home in fact, but make sure that it’s the stuff that glows in the dark. The other stuff is rubbish.

Anyway, enough of my rant. I just wanted to point out what a silly idea it is to post self-centered stuff like “One thing you probably didn’t know about me.”

I guess the one thing you didn’t know about me is that I don’t like these questions, but I do like to rant. :)
