well, NOW there’s a “hint of tension and embarrassment in the air.” but the blogwife, she is laughing heartily.

you might as well come right out and say it — my burrs were bad. it’s the humiliating truth, and exhibit A in the shortcomings of home junkie-ism. little did i know how unnecessary my own grinder travails have been! i have since replaced them, and think you may as well blame me for your troubles, your crabby mood that day AND the crappy video. i can take it.

meanwhile, maybe i’ll dust off the irreverent portion of our interview. if it’s audible.

funny, funny post.

Gawd.

Yup.

Not sure I could manage to pull that off. It was nicely done though. I’m not sure I’ll subject myself to the experience.

Thanks Rich. While Ben claims he writes horribly it is damn hard to do!

I give it a 4.5. The stylistic nuances were there as were there along with the self-as-3rd party POV but you could’ve been a bit more florid and added more obscure references ;-)

Well done sir.
