Exclusive Fantasy Interview



Interviewer: J.T.Z. Baner
Interviewee: Secret Agent Spink


Z. Baner: Welcome back to another interesting, intriguing, intricate and ind—

Agent Spink: Get to my part, you narcissist!

Z. Baner: Ah, yes. Let us, without further ado, welcome our guest to the proverbial chair for our next interview.......SECRET AGENT SPINK!!

Agent Spink: why is the chair proverbial?

Z. Baner: Performance tax, expenses are up and intakes are down. Let’s just say we’ll welcome you to the visceral stool of enlightenment. See how it glows!

Agent Spink: is that white paint and glitter glue?

Z. Baner: Mind your own business!

Agent Spink: You wanna piece o’ me! Comm’on! BINKAWADOOOOOO!!!!!!!<(ancient Bulgarian food fight rouser)

J Baner: Anyway!*(give the man back his toupee, Z)*Lets get back onto this show. So; Mr. Spink, what is your exact line of work?

Agent Spink: Well, I run an agency incorporating several Secret Agent Spink artisans, including my own TV show, Secret Agent Spink fitness equipment, Secret Agent Spink action figures, and even I even run the Secret Agent Spink Super Hair Toupee shop—

Z. Baner: Dang right, that hairpiece looked like horsehair.

Agent Spink: I do not wear a toupee, my fine example of an equestrian posterior.

Z. Baner: Keep it up baldy, and you’ll be opening a Spink Skin Graft shop soon…

J. Baner: Lets change the subject shall we?

Agent Spink: Gladly.

J. Baner: So, Mr. Spink, what exactly is your TV show about?

Agent Spink: Well, its ‘bout my adventures with several sidekicks who die at the end of each episode.

J. Baner: How, er, sadistic.

Agent Spink: I’ve had Bobin, Tonkto, Super-Duper Boy, and the Kid Bash, all dying tragically at the end of the last scenes. Usually they get dunked in lava or get dared to have a staring contest with Chuck Norris.

J. Baner: Ooooh, incinerated the ole irises, eh?

Agent Spink: Yes, and the soundtrack is the best. Here, I’ve got a tape of it….
DAA-DA-DA-DAAA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DAA-DA-DA-DAAAA—

Z. Baner: Dude, that’s the ‘Lone Ranger’ soundtrack.

Agent Spink: It is not!

Z. Baner: Is too, you track thief.

Agent Spink: Is not.

Z. Baner: Is too!

Agent Spink: Is not!

Z. Baner: IS TOO!

Agent Spink: IS NOT!

Z. Baner: IS TOO!!

J. Baner: QUIET!!! Ladies, you’re both pretty, now can we get on with the interview; or will I have to use force?

Agent Spink: I show you force!!

J. Baner: *Choke! Gasp! Cough!*

Z. Baner: Spink, call off Darth Vader and stop stealing the whistling mangoes, you’ll make us look childish. I think we’ll cut off this interview for now, as the property tax will probably be sending a foreclosure on this warehouse soon.

Agent Spink: We’re in a warehouse? I thought it was a penthouse!

Z. Baner: Thought wrong, didn’t ya, horsehair.

Agent Spink: YOU GO TOO FAR! THIS HAIR IS ETHIOPIAN GOAT FUR! YYAAAAAAAAA****

Oops! Sorry...

Dear readers,

Bear with us. Book Two Letter Thirty-Three was not the correct letter to have been posted. We accidentally gave you Book Two Letter Thirty-Six instead. The post has been deleted and we're working on finding the real Letter Thirty-Three to replace it. Bear with us, as said above!

Weekend Disaster Post - The Conundrum Involving Two Griffins, a Baseball Bat, Etc.

Welcome, readers of the Post! This week's edition of the Post involves a rather perplexing story involving two griffins, a baseball bat, and three fire-breathing dwarves from the kingdom of Quetzackortipakifarkle.

This past weekend a raging fire swept through several counties, devastating miles upon miles of precious property. Luckily, no one was hurt, except for little Tommy "Get-a-life" Whiner, who purportedly received a papercut during the evacuation. The fire devastated the land, however, leaving behind the question of whether this disaster occurred naturally or more unnaturally.

Says Fire Marshall Nick Colossus, "WE HAD SOME SUSPICIONS ABOUT SOME PEOPLE [in those counties] WHO HAD REPORTEDLY BEEN PLAYING WITH MATCHES AND WHATNOT, BUT THAT WASN'T REALLY MY GLASS OF EGGNOG, SO I GAVE THE INVESTIGATION TO FIREMAN SAM, MY DEPUTY."

Announcement: Camp NaNoWriMo Completed!

Welcome, dear readers of the insane hamster domination sagas we spew out every now and then. If you're an insane hamster with a plan for world domination, pardon the joke, please.

We three, the legendary JTZ (haha I rhymed; did you see that? I bet you didn't!), came together in the great month of July with a quest for words, and we prevailed with outstanding superbness! If that's not a word, it should be. We all signed up for Camp NaNoWriMo (look it up if you don't know what it is) and we all succeeded in macho fashion after a deathly battle with such foes as Writer's Block, Distraction (that was definitely my biggest foe), Annoyance, the Inner Editor, and all other forces of Chaos! Hurray!

If any of ye readers also participated in NaNoWriMo, even if you didn't succeed, leave a comment notifying us of your achievement and we will congratulate you in our next post.
