Guesting

It's been a while since I've posted (Sidenote: I mentioned participating in NaNoWriMo, where people write a novel and/or 50,000 words in one month [i.e., November] and I didn't do it. I don't have a problem with words [and lots of them] per se, but when it comes to a plot or story idea my brain goes *. . . *. I just found out that some other group is doing NaBloWriMo, where people are supposed to blog every day for a month. *. . .* Could I get my Certificate of Accomplishment retroactively, please?) and I decided that today I would have Scott Adams (creator of Dilbert) as a guest on my blog.


Me: Scott, I'm so pleased to have you here today. I'm a big fan of your work! Being currently out of the corporate rat race, your comic strips don't have quite the same sense of cringe-worthy immediacy that they used to, but hey - they're still funny! Is there anything you're working on right now?

SA: . . .

Me: Um, any new books, maybe?

SA: . . .

Me: Do you have an opinion on the last election?

SA: . . .

Me: How about news on ground-breaking medical procedures?

SA: . . .

Me: Tell me, what's you favorite color?

SA: . . .

Me: OK, well, thanks for stopping by. Oh, I know - have you been to see Twilight yet? What did you think? WAIT, don't answer that! No spoilers! How about some final words of wisdom instead?

SA: "THIS", "THAT", and "THE OTHER".

Me: Perfect.



*** Celebrity voice was impersonated. Much to his everlasting chagrin, Scott Adams has no actual connection to this blog. Neither does Dilbert. (More's the pity.)
