an interview with punk monkey:

 

GW: how long have you been a monkey?

PM:  well, let's see.  I am 33 - in monkey years - so I think I've been a monkey for about 25.....no, 30 years, monkey years.

 

GW:  what were you before you were a monkey?

PM:  a baby monkey....no, I'm just kidding.  I was a politician for most of my early life.  I was once a senator.  before my dive into politics I was a lab rat.  I figure, hey what's the difference I'll go into politics.

 

GW:  so you were once a federal senator?

PM:  yea.  I mean I did not write any important laws or anything.  I pretty much just sat in the back throwing poop at people - like most politicians.  I was once asked to help with finance reform, but they could not understand the whole "tin cup" approach.

 

GW:  so it was then you decided to become a punk monkey?

PM:  pretty much.  I mean I always felt like a monkey - I felt I was a monkey trapped in a politicians body.  so I saved some money, jumped the redeye to vienna, and with a little surgery I am now the punk monkey you see today.  you have to remember you do not choose to be a punk monkey, you are born a punk monkey - God made me a punk monkey - I just needed to allow the "inner punk monkey" to come out of the hamper.

 

GW:  what made you decided to work for www.ginkworld.net?

PM:  blackmail - I did something wrong when I was younger and these people found out about it and now I am working for them.

 

GW:  what did you do?

PM:  well, let's just say it involved j. edgar hoover, a pair of red opened toed pumps and a tin cup.

 

GW:  do you like working at www.ginkworld.net?

PM:  riiiiiiiiiiiiiiight......

 

GW:  you seem to be very articulate for a punk money, why?

PM:  well, I think it is my yale education.  a great many punk monkeys - and just monkeys - have attended yale, and graduated with honors.  I owe a great deal to my years at yale.  mainly to my friends who became plastic surgeons and moved to vienna.

 

GW:  if you were not with www.ginkworld.net, what would you be doing right now?

PM:  sleeping - it's 2:00 in the afternoon and I am still on nocturnal time.

 

GW:  no, I mean professionally what would you be doing?

PM:  well, I have had many opportunities - I though of throwing my hat back into the political ring, but I do not wear hats.  but if I had to pick one thing I would love to do, well - I'd like to join a freak show and travel the world.

 

GW:  what would you be in the freak show?

PM:  I'd be the tattooed lady - I'd have to shave my body again, get tattooed, and get connected with my doc friend in vienna again, but I think all that is very doable.

 

GW:  what will be your role at www.ginkworld.net?

PM:  I'll simply tell my story.  I will tell you stories of my life, and you can decide what it's all about - no judging, no telling - just my story and my life.

 

GW:  so, you will share with us what's happed over your past?

PM:  yup!  certain stories will be altered, because the people involved are all alive and have lawyers, but yea - for the most part I will be an open book - transparent and honest.

 

GW:  are you afraid to share your story openly?

PM:  no.  I mean, I am who I am and I did what I did and I hope others can learn from my life example - if not, all I can do is say I tried.

 

GW:  what can we expect to learn from a punk monkey?

PM:   besides great music?  a ton of stuff, well maybe not a ton - more like a few pounds.  but things like being content with who you are; not trying to be a control freak; dealing with the jerk at the ticket counter - knowing how God works in our lives, today.

 

GW:  so, you believe your life can shed light on issues facing us today?

PM:  I believe all life can shed light on the human condition today.  we just need to look past the blockage and into the heart of the matter.

 

GW:  what do you mean blockage?

PM:  words, attitudes, looks - you name it.  people tend to judge others by their looks, or what they think they are saying or the way they perceive a persons attitude - so not a christian teachings - but they like doing it, and some even justify their actions (he said, "poop" that's not right.)  we need to look past looks, and into heart.  yea, I'm a punk monkey, and my like may not have been pure and perfect - but I can tell you right now, God accepts me for me, not for what you want me to be.

 

GW:  any closing thoughts?

PM:  just thanks for the time and the interview.

 

GW:  welcome  to www.ginkworld.net.
