Now, I write to set the record straight. My sentence should have read:
"Even if our hopes of competing in the 'Amazing Race' aren't realized, Matt's the partner I always want on my team."
Having played an inordinate number of games with Matt in the last six months, I shall further note that he and I have become a truly unstoppable team. We will take on anyone in Celebrity and come out victorious.
Frankly, it is scary how good Matt is at Boggle. Utterly frightening.
comptetitor, Matthew "Maracuja"
McKenna is the funniest & wittiest chap
around. A conversation with him is
undoubtedly more satiating than a
GulaGula meal, as he knows all
important things in the world, from the
name of the Dali movie that`s on the tip
of your tongue ("Un Chien Andalou"), to
the capital of Brazil (Brasilia, not
Rio...duh), to the theme song to "Bosom
Bodies." Having spent over 90 hrs
together on buses, encountered
difficulties at 2 of our 3 international
border crossings, and endured the wrath
of rabid ftbol fanatics, I am certain that
he is the funnest, most thoughtful, and
generous travel companion known to
humankind. Whether were writing future
international pop hits, choreographing
and performing synchronized swimming
routines or simply playing an old-
fashioned game of celebrity trivia, Matt
is the one player I always want on my
team. Even if our hopes of competing in
the"Amazing Race" aren`t
I've had all day to ponder this
testimonial. However, as it is 4 and I'm
still in my PJ's, I'm making it up as I go
along. Nevertheirregardless, I have to
say that Matt is a rad dude. He shares
his groceries, rents movies that should
have subtitles or a roadmap
accompanying them and has the
comfiness of an old sweatshirt.. a
swaetshirt you've had for four years. He
even liked the fat guy who listened to
spandeau ballet. TRUE! Beyond all
that, I'm writing this little ditty from his
laptop. What a guy!
than the rest of us put together.
"Chuckles" - is the best patriarch a
small dysfunctional unrelated family
could ever have. Whether competing in a
tag-team danceoff or covering "Billie
Jean" in a small brothel-meets-karaoke
studio, Chuckles is 100% pure uncut
celebrity. I hear an ounce goes for
$245 on the street. If I could, I would
hook Matt up to my veins, but the sad
fact is he refuses to grace Austin with
his continued presence - a fact that
upsets everyone and everything, except
for maybe Kelly's bed, which is probably
glad to see him gone.
does an excellent booty-dance, and he has
the best taste in music on any side of the
Mason-Dixon line. He used to let me come
in and choose songs to play on his radio
show. We interviewed Of Montreal one time.
Here is the chorus of a little brill-building-
esqe ditty we penned together one
afternoon long ago:
We'll have fun tomorrow, have fun tomorrow,
if you take me to the zoo with you...
towards washington d.c. to attend a
pro-choice rally, i would highly
recommend staying with matt. while the
accomodations leave something to be
desired (the hallways sometimes smell
like gravy and the uncontrolability of
the water temperature can make
showering treacherous), the perks are
endless. he will provide you with
peanut butter and jelly sandwiches on
demand. he will play the piano
beautifully and serenade you with all
of elton john's greatest hits. he will
even attend the rally with you,
marching beside you and chanting "my
body, my choice" into a tiny pink
megaphone. but besides his countless
virtues as a host, he is one of my
favorite people ever. i would love to
testify to his wonderfulness in other
realms, but i would surely exceed the
1000 character limit imposed by
friendster.
hopes of one day viewing a corey haim
tape he claimed to possess. however it
has been his charming yarns, and the
stellar vocab with which he spins them,
that have sustained our
spooning/nonspooning friendstership
extravaganza. in conclusion, matt loves
kids but not in a creepy way.
