Gally of Muffin Mumblings evidently needed a distraction from his art studies and internship, and so decided to volunteer for an interview here on EV. That’s a pretty big step for someone who’s only been blogging for two months. Hopefully your visits will inspire him to keep blogging, and maybe even post a muffin recipe or two.

1. “Muffin Mumblings”: explain.

Alliteration is always an awesome thing when it come to titles. Also, I like muffins, and mumbling seems to be an issue of mine. It seems like so many times when I say “okay” or “yes”, people think I’m saying “why” and “no”. This leads to many awkward situations.

2. Is Gally short for something?

Nope. It’s a nickname whose past is dark, geeky, and all around silly. But it stuck.

3. So, you’re an art student. What do you do to pay the bills?

Hah, live with my parents. I’m expecting to take several odd jobs once I graduate. Getting a degree in comics doesn’t exactly set me up for a fabulous rich life. However, I am currently in the middle of an internship with my local art center helping create their flagship comic book exhibition and convention. That seems to be the focus of my blog at the moment.

4. Are you looking at me?

..What? Oh, uh…I never really expected you to notice the duck blinds….

5. In one paragraph, what’s wrong with politics these days?

Hmm…Republicans, our president, the decision to focus on being a superhero to the rest of the world’s problems instead of focusing on our own. It’s hard for me to sum it up in one paragraph, especially since thinking about the state of U.S. politics makes me rather depressed. [Wow, taking a shot at Republicans here?! Nothing like trying to be controversial, huh? - VK]

6. What’s in YOUR wallet?

A small flattened pixie from my last magical excursion. It brings good luck and makes an excellent bug repellent.

7. Name three things that make a blog suck.

1. TyPiNg **LiKe tHis) :):):):).

2. Acting like everything sucks. Emo posting. We know we know, you hate your life and living in white suburbia is soooo difficult. Stop hanging around Hot Topic and shut up.

3. Updating like once a month, or then just dropping off without warning. You may be blogging for yourself, but that doesn’t mean you don’t have readers.

8. Where is Jimmy Hoffa?

If I told you, I’d have to destroy Egypt, France, and 3/4 of Russia.

9. What was the last concert at which you yelled “Freebird!”?

I make it a point to never shout Freebird at any concert. And throw small mammals at those who do.

10. Complete this sentence: “What VK doesn’t know about me is…”.

I actually do have a close relationship with Satan. I just can’t use any of my powers because the bastard blocked my number.

If you’ve got something to say and want to say it here on EV, contact me at VenomousMe at Gmail. If your blog doesn’t suck, I’ll be happy to interview you, too.
