CELEBRITY GUEST INTERVIEW ———- The Return of Jungle Jerk

On the way back from his tour of the Colombian Amazon, Jungle Jerk paid an unexpected visit to “Call Me Snake” last night. We resumed the conversation that began more than two weeks ago, without missing a beat. It was almost as if we never stopped talking.

Snake: There’s one thing I’ve always wondered about–why do they call it a RAIN forest?

JJ: Because it rains a lot.

Snake: Yeah, I got that. But what about the forest part?

JJ: Well, uh, given the audience, I should have mentioned the fact that there are a lot of trees.

Snake: Interesting… That sort of makes sense. Is there anything else you care to say about it?

JJ: Not really. I’m kind of tired. I’ve been up since 5 a.m.

Snake: Our time or theirs? And if theirs, who are “they” anyway?

JJ: Well maybe it was 6 a.m. here, not 5 a.m. Either way, that’s still early in my book. Can I stop talking now?

Snake: Sure, that’s cool. I’ve run out of questions anyway.

[EDITOR'S NOTE: A full transcript of this conversation will soon be available on a dedicated website. The URL for this site will be posted so that interested parties can catch every word of this fascinating exchange.]

    I‘m not after her job, if that‘s what you mean. But it could be interesting to put both of us in the same room, dontcha‘ think?

    Snake,
    I have been remiss in reading your blog. Just saw what you had written of our interview and it seems to me that I was totally forthcomming in responding to your probing questions. there is less here than meets the eye.
    remember, if you don\‘t think too good, don\‘t think too much.
    JJ

    Dear JJ — Thanks for the trenchant remark. And one word of advice, from one who‘s been there: Don‘t think.
