: kev, was just wodering if you had an opinion on professional wrestling(i.e. you being a writer:do think of the writing as being impressive):::
I remeber him saying he doesn't watch it, though he did like the Stone Cold Steve Austin character stuff(The Austin 3:16 thing. Which I found funny).
: I only ask cause whether you like it or not hearing you break down why or why not you like something is how can I put this....fucking awesome::
Fucking awesome? No. I got suckered into watching the shit because some of the kids I hung around with at the beginning of the year watched it religiously. Now I'm hooked on the WWF shit like its televised crack. I intensely dislike all the violence towards women I see in it(I remember watching that weightlifter chick China get punched by a guy and the audience went nuts. It made me ill). But I do like Mick Foley,The Rock and Chris Jericho. The rest can go fly a kite in hell. And I look forward to the XFL. I go into a funk when football is over. Now I can get a full year of football. The XFL will run until the Bears hit training camp. I love the Bears. YES, I CAN BE A FAN OF INDIE FILMS AND STILL ENJOY WRESTLING AND FOOTBALL AND NOT BE WHITE TRASH. That needed to be said. Trust me, I'm so ashamed.

: oh yes in clerks you said how most people rent films that are "mentally devoid", well let me just say your films are the antithesis of films like Navy Seals.:::
No, Kevin's films are the antithesis of Merchant Ivory flicks. Jane Austen is more the Anti-Thesis of Navy Seals. And Anthony Hopkins is the Anti-Sheen.
: I watch your films on my DVD with the subtitles just so I can get the words so I can later look them up in the dictionary and use them as well::
That is.....Man,I've been made speechless twice today. Kind of shocking. Thank you very much American Public School system.
: my fav's as of late "slight,pretentious, and callow(might be spelled wrong it's been about a month since my last 'Rats' viewing)::
Really? And you consider yourself an American? Go to Church and talk to a Priest. Or just break into a motel where Husbands meet with their girlfriends and steal the Bible from the table while they fuck.
: also if you do like wrestling who is your fave?::
That Stone Cold fellow. He's fucking the wife of former Bear Steve McMichael. Steve McMichael kicked ass. Part of the famed 46 defense. The greatest defense in NFL History and the 85' Bears were the greatest team in NFL history. Single Season anway. Too bad Ditka fucked everything up. I hate Ditka. I miss football. So very much. I still have Elton Brand though. And watch out for the Bears next year. Bears. Go Bears.

William Dawson,where were you when the order to give William Santiago the Code Red was issued? ANSWER THE QUESTION. DONT ASK HIM. ANSWER THE QUESTION.
: Post Script...Those Eric Schaeffer questions..............gotcha! I don't really like Eric Schaeffer hahahah(I wouldn't believe me either) ::
Who is Eric Schaeffer?
