The Karl Thienes Interview


Well Mr. Hibbity Gibbity and I are the newest addition to the blog interview phenomenon sweeping the 'sphere.


I will begin with the rules and regulations.


Official Rules

  1. If you want to participate, leave a comment below saying "interview me."
  2. I will respond by asking you five questions - each person's will be different.
  3. You will update your journal/blog with the answers to the questions.
  4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview others in the same post.
  5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions
  6. I will answer reasonable follow up questions if you leave a comment.

Well here are my answers to the questions posited:

We all want to know this: What is up with the "Mr. Hibbity Gibbity" name tag? Where does it come from? Are you really just Chris in disguise?


No, Mr. Hibbity Gibbity is in fact a real person.  I will leave it to him to fill you in on the particulars of his monikers origin.

Have either of you gone skydiving? If not, what are you waiting for?


No, I have not been skydiving, mostly because of the probitive cost.


What is your most embarrassing moment? (Bwahaha!)

I have no real embarrissing moments; I don't embarrass easily.

What do you *really* think of Katie?

Well that is an interesting question.  I think she is a very intelligent, well spoken incredibly goofy person.  We need more people like her making things interesting, if not a little too poor pitiful me.

If you could go back in time and live for a year (with, of course, no serious ruptures in the space-time continuum) what time and place would you go?

Hmm... I would probably live in Paris in the heyday of the real Bohemian revolution, before the faux revolution that began in 1830.  There were so many interesting people and events that occured during that time and it would be interesting to have experienced some of it.  To sit in the foyer of the Impasse du Doyenne, or the Hotel Pimodan and see the emergence of Apollonie Sabatier, or the first meeting of Baudelaire and Gaufier.  To discuss Literature with Roger de Beauvoir.  That would be worth the trip.

Well that is it for my part of the questions.  Hopefully MHG will get around to answering them sometime soon.  Yeah and thanks for the linkup Karl; finally getting on your site for some reason was a real bonus.

Not like I have been linking you for like months and months.  Sheesh.
