I was unable to torture Eva in person, but I did do a good job of bothering her online by sending her these millions of "interview" questions to answer.

We couldn't do the trade in person, but Eva sent Mikki to trade with me in her place. A trade Doppelganger?

Here are Eva's answers to my ever-present "interview" questions: 

Q: Why do you have the toasts?
A: I am naturally attracted to silly useless items.

Janie was oddly quiet while I held her down and forced her to answer my "interview" questions. It might have been the duct tape that I put over her mouth during the parts where she wasn't supposed to talk. So I guess "oddly quiet" isn't the right description. Exactly right quiet. That's what it was: 

Q: How long do you think it would take to teach a monkey to sew?
A: Obviously it depends on the monkey.  Spider monkeys can learn easily, as they already know how to weave. (Their monkey spider webs) 

I put an ad on craigslist recently because I am trying to get rid of all the large items in bARTer Sauce.

I have to ship The Sauce to Sacramento, CA for an art show at Side Show Studios and I'd rather not ship anything that weighs over 100 lbs or measures 5 feet in any direction. It just wouldn't be wise.

Bryan was no exception to the mandatory "interview" questions. Doug held him down and poked him with a marshmallow toasting fork while I asked him the following:

Q: Have you ever made your own mustard?
A: Yes I have made several types of mustard. I am a Chef.

Q: If you could punch anything in nature, what would it be?
A: I have punched a 300 ft tall dust devil at burning man, then got sucked into and a few feet up it!

Q: Do you have any tattoos?

Jessamyn - like everyone else I trade with - was forced at gunpoint to answer my "interview" questions:

Q: Have you ever made your own mustard?
A. No, although I love mustard with a fiery passion.

Q: Have you ever had impure thoughts about field roast?
A. I try to never think of Field Roast. Thanks a lot for reminding me.

Q: If you could punch anything in nature, what would it be?
A. It would be the sun; I would punch it right in its stupid face.

Regina is awesome and you should check out her website. Regina was kind enough to send some answers to my ridiculous "interview" questions:

Q: If you could punch anything in nature, what would it be?
A: The safe answer is Cancer. I'd punch that till the cows came home. But my first thought was to punch a Tsunami. Bastard things.

Q: How many parents do you have?

Rachael was kind enough to tolerate some of my "interview" questions.

She was the winner of the 2010 bARTer Sauce Trade Off. She competed against another Sauce trader for the Bad Kid painting. They each submitted their trade offer and stories and then folks voted on who I should trade with by leaving comments. Rachael won! Yay! She's a winner!

Have some fun learning basically nothing important about her: 

Q: What size books do you prefer? 

Lauren's Answers to my Annoying Interview Questions:

Dear Rosalie,

I posted a photo of the door plate along with my face in the picture. I hope you enjoyed it, I am thee most photogenic person I know.

As for the interview questions:
1. My foot is a size 8 or 9, it always depends on the shoe. The actual length of my foot is 25 cm in length and no, I will not give you the measurement in inches because I am Canadian and I'm sure you can figure it out. (1 in=2.5 cm)
