I have to admire the Ducks courage for doing this segment. Folks maybe somewhat disappointed with this segment. My natural good host instincts are in conflict with my WWE persona. A good host does not cream his guests . However this will be interesting.
The Duck is a staff member at this blog. He is the official troll of this blog. A good troll stimulates articulate points of view from all sides. This 25 questions will be in a much tougher format.
1 What is the real story with your views on Renoir ? Renoir painted women as individuals with excellent use of color. Would you honestly rather look at a Chardin then a Renoir. Dead Fish , Rabbits and fruit painted in several combinations is a bore. Would you honestly rather look at a bowl of fruit or a portrait ?
2 You seem to have a special dislike for Randoids . What are your views on Rand
3 How many Bat Yeor books have you read ?
4 What are your views on Energy Policy ? Is the failure to drill in ANWAR exporting pollution to the third word ?
5 What are your views on KFC and vegetarianism ?
6 What are your views on the Kurds ?
7 Is human capital more important then Natural resources.
8 What are your views on geneticaly altered crops ?
9 What are your views on Falun Gong and Tibet
10 Are Child soldiers the ultimate form of child abuse
11 Do you think the persecution of homosexuals in the third world is a problem.
12 Who is this Manny Ortiz player John Kerry mentions ? What position does he play ?
Do you think Kerry was faking the Red Sox fan bit ?
13 Do hunters and fishermen have cultural rights that should be respected ?
14 Is Louis Farakhan a racist ?
15 Is there a elite snob factor in the art and film community ? Why is there a critical disdain for family films ?
16 Did you watch the movies the Sand Pebles or Planet of the Apes ? Was the social commentary of those films less overt then the ones produced today.
17 What are you thoughts on film adaptations of Broadway musicals ?
18 Have you eaten sea weed in Japanese resturants ?
19 Are the works of Steinbeck and Upton Sinclair dated ?
20 Why has the labor movement gone into retreat ?
21 Should countries with historic ties to the USA like Haiti, the Philipinnes and Liberia be granted special status for trade and immigration ?
22 What are your views on free trade ?
23 Do you see India or China being the next dominant power
24 Which do you prefer Mexican or Greek cuisine
25 Are people who treat their pets like children creepy or quirky ?

#26 - Have you ever misled anyone into believing you're not a moron?
#27 - your favorite comedian. and NO, carol channing does not qualify.
beak - o.t. - have you observed the creature called "weaz" at fpm trying to plug his blog? one has already been censored out! i happened by there - certifiable:
weazlsrevenge.blogspot.com
wonder how long one of us would last over there? i may just have to find out!
#28 - how do you feel about the singer barely amanilow?
otherwise a pretty darned good interview plucky!
Those were better responses then I anticipated. I am glad we agree on question ten.
I still have problems with some out there who are against giving military people immigration benefits.
I completely disagree with both of you over question 10.
Children being sold as sex slaves has to be the most insidious form of child abuse. Even if they manage to survive, they will be scarred forever and possible sex offenders themselves.
As far as beef not being an efficient food source, you should try cooking it first. Most evolutionary theories point to the dramatic increase in protein to be a major catalyst for brain growth and cooked meat in particular.
Question 21...complete agreement.
A lot of interesting and well thought out answers ducky.
when are you interviewing fern? coded: ask him if he has his socks on the right feet!

You have to give the Duck credit. Some of those questions were not easy. He came out much better then expected.
However as a host I can not beat the tar out of a guest like I can on a thread.
I am going to see if Drumaster can put me on the Hotseat. If he is not up to it I will ask Warren to host a spot on Long Range.
American Crusader has the next spot
kyle - are you going to take the hot seat?
looking forward to it. Actually following ducky is going to be challenging. He is a pretty intelligent person. Just misguided.
Agreed on Steinbeck and Sinclair.
Ducky,
Did you like the film, Chariots Of Fire? If so, did you think it deserved an Ocsar? If you didn't, which film do you think should've won it? What do you feel was the underlying message?
I've been missing out most of yesterday and today. Computer issues.
Steinbeck hits eternal truths.
My favorite modern author!
25 Are people who treat their pets like children creepy or quirky ?
Lonely.
Not necessarily. Most are, I think. But some of us (myself at times) think that pets are a comfort. Also, petting a mammal actually lowers blood pressure--a problem I've developed. Petting my cats sure beats taking pills.
Crusader: He is a pretty intelligent person.
High IQ, IMO. But sometimes emotionalism overcomes that.
Anyway, I enjoyed reading this interview.
I like scratching myself while drinking beer and watching football. That Q/A was way too pretentious from this far out in the cheap seats.
madze - next time get in touch with one of the scalpers!
Well the fact that you are an art snob and film fascist was not surprising, but a good interview nevertheless.
Cheers
Ducky,
I thought the film went further than just the inspiration part that you mentioned. I thought it contrasted the motivations of both the Christian and the Jewish runners, quite well.
Other than the theme song, I have to say I agree with you on the rest of the soundtrack.
As for Reds, I tried to watch it several times and just found it long, boring, and slow. I was much younger back then and more hyper than I am now, so sitting through a 3-4 hour movie was tough. (As opposed to say, Braveheart.)
braveheart is my all-time favorite epic-type movie. powerful.
