I found my two friends, Howie Keenan and Andrew Morgan, and saw what was up with them. They&#8217;re two pretty basic dudes who like a lot of the same things I do. Guess that&#8217;s why we&#8217;re friends.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Me: So tell me about your day guys. Anything cool happen?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Andrew: I woke up, went straight to class. Came back took a sweet shower. Found out I got an A on my paper and then talked to my cousin on the phone for like 25-30 minutes. Then I went and got sushi and went to the library. And now I&#8217;m here talking to you. I kinda worked hard but I kinda didn&#8217;t. Kind of a clique Dickinson day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Me: Nice, Howie what about you??<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Howie: Well. I had four classes today, plus gym if you want to count that. I went home for lunch and had a leftover chicken cutlet. \u00a0I made dinner for Hanukkah which was pretty good. I also had an Italian sandwich from the quarry today which was also bomb. Now I&#8217;m here talking to you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Me: What else did you make for Hanukkah dinner?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Howie: Well the meal was quite carb-heavy, lots of bread and matzah balls. \u00a0Chicken cutlets, potato pancakes (latkes). I sat down with my friend Kevin and we had a little Chanukkah dinner. It was quite lovely.<\/p>\n<p>Andrew: did you just say Chanukkah??<\/p>\n<p>Howie: yea thats how you say it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Me (trying to get them back on track): OK. So Howie what&#8217;s your most redeeming quality?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Howie: (thinking&#8230;. for a while&#8230;) well its definitely my intellect. I think I&#8217;m pretty wise.<\/p>\n<p>Andrew: pretty cocky you think your wise<\/p>\n<p>Howie: Maybe. But fuck it. I&#8217;m wise.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Me: Andrew what about you? Are you good at anything?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Andrew: Yea I&#8217;m pretty swag at clash of clans. It consumes most of my day. Also kinda good at econ which I guess will be helpful.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Me: Do you guys work out?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Howie: oh yea all the time. Here&#8217;s the breakdown from today. Ran a mile at the 7.4 pace (not too fast not too slow, I get a nice little schvitz), so after that I did the stair master for a while, burned like 340 calories. I like the stair master it makes me feel tall which is cool. Listened to some sweet music too. I had to get a drink after that too i was pretty parched. Saw my friend who was complaining about gym class but I told her that it would be ok. Then I left the gym. My whole back was soaked and I had to go to class like that. I smelled like shit but fuck it.<\/p>\n<p>Andrew: I don&#8217;t work out. I&#8217;m a bum.<\/p>\n<p>Howie: I&#8217;m definitely the more athletic one<\/p>\n<p>**Andrew nods, agrees**<\/p>\n<p>At this point Andrew gets too distracted with his Clash of Clans game and Howie has to go to a meeting, so I decide to end the interview.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>  <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/gocomments\/formanbyman.wordpress.com\/67\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/comments\/formanbyman.wordpress.com\/67\/\" \/><\/a> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/pixel.wp.com\/b.gif?host=formanbyman.wordpress.com&#038;blog=100041006&#038;%23038;post=67&#038;%23038;subd=formanbyman&#038;%23038;ref=&#038;%23038;feed=1\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; So today I decided to follow in Jerry Seinfeld&rsquo;s foot steps (kind of) and conduct and interview about nothing.
