Interview #3

This interview with Henry was conducted in the downstairs office on the night of September 22, 2006.

1. How is third grade treating you?

Fine. I don't have many new classmates. I already know everyone except for a few people.

2. What did you think of the movie Cars?

I thought that they used the wrong idea. By the wrong idea, I mean that this was nothing like Finding Nemo or Toy Story or The Incredibles or anything like that. Also, some of the parts were a bit cheesy. And they overused the Radiator Springs setting.

3. Tell us about making pickles.

It's fun. I like putting the pickles in, and then messing around with the amount of peppers. They didn't come out as well as I expected, though. I should have made a more distinct flavor, so I suppose it has to do with the fact that the person who was cooking the pickles ran out of the sour flavoring.

4. How is your new soccer team different from your previous ones?

Well, number one, we have a real coach. Number two, we have a real team. Number three, we actually practice. Number four, and so on, and so on, and so on.

5. Do you need an iPod? If so, why? If not, why not?

I'm not sure. If I get one, it'll probably be from the Innisbrook Wraps thingy at my school. It's a weird thing where you sell wrapping paper and get prizes. When the person was announcing the Grand Prizes at the assembly, and she said XBox 360, everyone yelled. It was annoying. I covered my ears because it was so loud.

6. Tell us what goes into the making of a Hen playlist.

I look through the Top 1000, my Favorite Artists playlist, the bakery playlist, and other ones of my favorite artists that aren't listed in my Favorite Artists playlists. I also just add songs that I like that haven't been used on too many of my playlists, or haven't been used at all.

7. Do you think the Raiders will go 0-16? A lot of people are saying they might.

No. I have not seen a team go 0-16 in my entire life. I have seen two teams go 2-14, though. The Raiders have to get at least one win.

Final record: 2-14

8. Let's talk about the song, "House of Bamboo." What is your favorite lyric from that song? How would you describe the song to someone who had never heard it before?

I like the "You must get to know Soho Joe" part. I would describe the song as odd but good.

(You can download the song here.)

9. What do you think will happen in the final Lemony Snicket book, which is coming out in a couple of weeks?

I think there will not be a happy ending, because it's called A Series Of Unfortunate Events, not A Series Of Fortunate Events That Are Kind Of Unfortunate But There's Still A Happy Ending At The End.

10. Write a quick three-line poem.

(It's a haiku.)

T__ is crazy. I
wonder what the remainder
of that name could be.


EDIT: Had to delete a lot of spam on this post.
