Q: How are you doing this evening, Michael P?
MICHAEL P: Thanks, I'm doing fine. I never thought I'd see the day, though, when someone like you would ask someone like me something like that.
Q: I notice, Michael, you have a good share of the internet gal-friends, like Clarabelle and Britta.
Q: But, they refuse to write me back, when I electro-mail them.
Why is that?
MICHAEL P: I know you picked me for this interview for good reasons, among them my knowledge of most everything there is to be known. But be warned, "most" is the operative term here.
Q: You're in one of these musical groups, I understand. One of the teen ones: raucous and discordant, with the instruments, sounds like cats mating in trash cans.
Q: Describe the kind of music you make, and if you're any good.
MICHAEL P:
Q: Michael?
MICHAEL P: ...No.
Q: ...No, you're NOT in a band?
Q: Well, that screws me all up then. My questions were mainly about that. I don't know what to ask now.
MICHAEL P:
Q: Okay -- IF you were in a band, what kind of music would you make?
MICHAEL P:
Q: What kind of music do you LIKE?
MICHAEL P:
Q: Wait a minute, I just checked your webpage, and it says you're in Thrombocyte. Or Leukocyte.
Q: HARROWSITE.
Q: No... HETERO-site.
MICHAEL P: HERO-CYCLE.
Q: So, you ADMIT IT -- Now, why would you want to DENY something like that...?
MICHAEL P:
Q: You had better answer me, as I have no other questions prepared.
MICHAEL P:
Q: Okay, FINE.
Q: Did you hear Batman was arrested?
MICHAEL P: No.
Q: Altercation over a Porta-Potty. In Los Angeles.
Q: Quite traumatic for the little ones.
MICHAEL P: Ahh, makes sense now. He's East Coast representin'.
Q: Always interesting news in Los Angeles. It's never GOOD, but it's interesting.
Q: So, HeroCycle. Is that like a cycle, for hero's?
MICHAEL P:
Q: A cycle for hero's? -- Or, is it Cycle, as in "repeated sequence" -- like "life cycle of the monarch butterfly" ? Or -- is it the drummer's last name?
MICHAEL P: Yes.
Q: I quite like your internet page.
Q: Minimilist.
MICHAEL P: Thanks very much. I like to let my silence make the noise. Oh man, that sounds ridiculous. See what I mean?
Q: You belong to some of the more sophisticated groups, I see.
MICHAEL P: About half of my groups I'm quite proud of, including Mike Leigh, Hal Ashby, and Syracuse Fans. But some of them...
Q: Like, I'LL BE SEEING YOU AT HOOTERS.
MICHAEL P:
Q: Michael?
MICHAEL P: ...I don't recall that one.
Q: I'M LOOKING AT IT -- ON YOUR PAGE.
MICHAEL P:
Q: Tell us a little about that group. Committed to philantrophy? Ending world hunger? - What?
MICHAEL P: ...I was young and immature. My friends and I needed a reason to get together, other than the TV show Most Extreme Elimination.
Q: I see.
MICHAEL P:
Q: HeroCycle?
MICHAEL P:
Q: I notice you wrote an entire blog attacking Will Farrell.
Q: Who is he, and why the beef against him?
MICHAEL P: Will Ferrell was an American actor in the post-90's milennium period. His tenure as a person with a household name lasted until at least the time of this writing and eventually ended, although the date has not yet been decided.
MICHAEL P: The guy was a comedian and once did a movie called Stranger Than Fiction, where he tried not to be as funny as he really is and in my eyes that was a poor artistic decision. I wish him all the luck in the future, and still greatly admire his comedic prowess. I hold no beef.
Q: All right, I'm pulling the plug on you, Michael P -- until such time as I can think up new questions, or you stop hogging Clarabelle and Britta.
Q: I share my friends with YOU. You're welcome to them.
Q & A, by the way, stands for QUESTION and ANSWER, Michael P -- I "QUESTION", and you "ANSWER." NOT "I Question" and You "STOP BREATHING."
