In the Hot Seat With Kyle

This segment should be fairly interesting as todays guest is Kyle. Kyle has a relitively new blog that has a brisk quick refreshing style. Kyle is currently on campus and markets art from his blog. This will lead directly to five art questions and some minor humor.

Art
1 A recent visitor has claimed that Renoir is over rated and unoriginal do you agree with this assesment ?
2 What Schools of Art are you a fan of ? Do you prefer individual artists ? Have you any thoughts on the newest artictic craze sweeping the nation classic Beamishism ?
3 How would you describe your style of art ?

College
4 Is the faculty in your college overbearing close minded leftist of the type Horowitz describes ?
5 Are there consevatives in the scool paper ?
6 Are students who are far left just yes men ? Have Conservatives stolen cool and hip from the left ? This charge enraged an accademic on Front Page Magazine ?
7 Are student leftist guilty of groupthink ? Is it important to be your own person ?

General

8 What sports do you watch ?
9 Do you drink imported or domestic beer ? Have you seen this odd beer He- brew ? We are looking for a brave individual to try this beer. This blog is not responsible for the probable bad taste of such a product .
10 What is your salted snack of choice ?

Blog related
11 What blogs do you read weekly ? Excluding this blog what blogs stand out in your opinion ? ( Hosts that seek yes man type responses are loathsome )
12 Is your blog style still evolving ?
13 Are ratings a big part of your goal ? Self promotion of ones own blog is part of what blogging is about.

Taxes Taxes Death and Taxes in the Afterlife
14 Are Beer, Alcohol and Gasoline taxes too high ?
15 Are the above taxes aimed at rural and working people ?
16 Would you favor a tax on junk food ?

Church vs State mayhem
17 Do public displays of religion bother you ?
18 Are you in favor of prayer in school ?
19 Do advocates of secularism seem angry ? The ones I run into are in a constant rage.

The future or cracked Crystal Balls
20 Do the rise of India and China concern you
21 Is China an ally, friend, foe, trading partner and should Americans pay more attention to human rights abuses in China.
22 Are we seeing the decline of France ? Has France been in decline and not figured it out yet ? What impact has Socialism had on the recent riots ?

Immigration
23 Have you encountered students on visa ? Do they enrich the accademic experience or is this just more PC foolishness ?
24 Are you prepared to throw the book at companies that hire illegal workers ?

25 Has Pat Buchanan become a populist ???????

Bonus Questions
Are people who wear body paint at sporting events an eyesore ?

Beak: Time and Place, Time and Place and remember no bloviating thats my job. :p Just let me know when you want to do the Hot Seat.

I will prepare a set of questions tonight. So far the interviews have come out very well.

Ducky's segment came out very well. Rob was somewhat nervous but had fairly positive feedback. I had to talk Rob into an interview.

nanc said...

scratch #26 - beak already asked it.

Pat Buchanan calls himself a "populist" because if he called himself a "national socialist" people would say "no shit."

Stephen Schwartz of the Center for Islamic studies does not consider the Nation of Islam to be Muslims.
The Koran does not say anything about spaceships, mad scientists named Yacub and the creation of white people in testubes.

I want to point out the division Anum points to. The Mad Zionist and I could sit with Mr Beamish and watch a football game.

I have no problem having lunch with Justin Moris who happens to be Gay. If Nanc eats a Ham sandwich this is her choice.

This is roughly what I expected and I felt it was a fair interview.
Yet I share the sentiments of Nanc and Mr Beamish about Shariah.

This placing oneself apart from the community is a problem. There are Chasidic Jews who do this on a smaller level but not to the extreeme.

My coworkers private lives and cuisine are their choice. This interview raises perplexing issues
but I am thankful to Anum for sitting for an interview. I hope he thinks it was fair.

nanc said...

everyone should read zechariah 14 completely to see how we will live. are you whisperin' beak?

nanc said...

how come kyle got an extra 12? now i know the rest of us are red haired stepchildren...

beakerkin said...

Excellent interview Kyle. However, remember the Beamish school of art is the rage at this blog. If you get a chance take a look at his blog.

Beamish is a genius.

Beak I promise if you keep your hands on the table at lunch everything will be ok.

nanc said...

(((Thought Criminal))) said...

I'm no genius, I just play one on the internet.

nanc said...

then you deserve an award - i never would have guessed.

Nanc,

Stop not letting me be humble! :P

I have a couple He-Brews in my fridge. They are left over from a friend who brought them down from NY for me to try. How are they? Uh...beer doesn't last in my fridge for 3 months unless it really sucks. Bitter, chalky, nasty aftertaste.

nanc said...

beer doesn't last at all in our fridge as it is off limits to beer - now the ice chest on the deck tells a different story each day - EMPTY! nancpop loves his beer, so keeping it full is a full time job so he can work on keeping it EMPTY!
