Secrets of the City

Well, WE know and love Jason at MNSpeak, even if the ‘CCO interns don’t. Makes me wonder what our interns thought of me — best not to know, I guess. Hey, remember to stop by the MOA Rotonda and see me on Thursday, and remember to tip your servers and bartenders. Thank you very much. You’ve been a wonderful audience, I’ll be here all week.

How did this rate its own post? Brilliant. Thanks, Max.

Ang stole this item from my blog, incidentally.

Anything that creates the opportunity for dancing DeRusha rates its own post.

By “stole” he means “was given with glee.”

Actually, by “Stole” I meant, “So astounded anyone reads my blog, couldn’t contain my excitement, and immediately begged for it to be on Overheard.”

You should let your interns know about your blog.

hey, if you want to hear a real pwning by intern, the ones I work with are paid better than me to sit around on the internet all day while I slave away doing shit I actually need a completed degree for.

pwnt hardcore. don’t work for the general if you value your anal virginity and pride.

how did I miss mention of these DeRusha archival photos. Nice suspenders, college boy.

Wow. The midday weatherman used to have a mullet. Now if only we had a picture of DeRusha with a mullet and suspenders…

I used to be obsessed with those matching tie/suspender sets you could buy at Milwaukee’s Boston Store. So hot.

Nice suspenders, college boy.

1994?! OMG. I thought that photo was from, like, the early ’80s or something.

I should talk, though. I’ve locked away a photo of moi wearing an electric blue tux to my ‘74 high school prom. No sense in giving anyone any more ammunition than they need to accuse me of being a fashion cretin.

I know, I was really pretty fashionable in 1994. If I get a chance today, I’ll try to upload some video of me anchoring my college TV newscast. Classic.

Jason has a blog?

And he’s pimping MnSpeak on it.

My RSS feeds make me feel like Jim Carrey’s The Riddler in that awful Batman sequel. There’s so much information flowing into my head so quickly, I might go mad from it and start dressing in a green suit covered with black question marks, which would be quite a break from my current suit, which is purple and has red question marks.

Jason can bust a move!

Yes, but you could make an outfit like that work for you, max. Reminds me of a couple of great movie lines:

CIA agent Felix (Jack Lord!) to 007 Sean Connery, as he straps on an absurd motorized wetsuit and dives from a Coast Guard helicopter: “On you, everything looks good!”

Also one of Carrey’s few good lines from the God-awful Bat flick mentioned above: “Was that over the top? I can never tell…”
