broad in NYC. I like Mike.
Gatsby. What can I say about Michael? He's
charming, dashing, intelligent, talented, AND he's
truely a great friend. P.s... he's Batman.
Operaman? Oh, I hope he has a bathtub
in his new place in Brooklyn, cause he
might need to sit in it and drink gin
now and again...
talked me into this cursed friendly
network...but really his arsino hall
shirt is perhaps the finest piece of
clothing i have ever witnessed someone
wear. Hell of a filmmaker, writer, and
painter...and he isnt an elitest prick
either. He is more like a debonair,
renaissance man, who happens to be the
love child of Batman and The Shadow.
Ok, Stop me if I have blown too much
smoke up your ass...no really Michael
is hip.
alarming degree. Still, I can take him
in a wrestling match, because that's
the sort of gentleman he is. A tall,
dashing, wussy gentleman. See also:

was unpacking my things in my dorm
room when suddenly there was a low
sound of thunder coming from the
hallway. I went outside to
investigate, and saw what appears to
be some fantastic disturbance, the
walls were rippling and there was
floating light pulsing, getting
brighter in brighter. After a while of
this, the light then grew to gigantic
proportions, engulfing the entire
hallway, with a force that knocked me
to my knees. When I looked up, the
light was gone, and in its place in
what seem to be some Victorian era
mechanical contraption, was Michael.
Michael looked around for a minute,
and then got out of the machine. He
was wearing a white dress shirt, pin-
stripes pants that were held up by
blue suspenders, a blue bow-tie, and a
short rimmed fedora. As he took his
hat off to help wipe the dust off
himself, he said "So this is the
future, eh? So far I'm not impressed.
He spoke with a very think Chicago
accent.
He stepped over to me and flung out
his hand. "Hello, fella he said "The
name is Bialaszewski, Michael
Bialaszewski, but the boys on the
south side call me Mikey B'.
It was hard to figure out was the hell
the guy was saying; he was speaking
too fast, like in the newsroom of one
of those old films.
After he introduced himself, he asked
if I was the bellhop of this hotel.
After tell him that this is a college
and not a hotel, and that I was a
student and not a bellhop he
responded. "You don't say fella?
scratching his head in confusion. "It
looks like you people have done quite
well for yourselves since 1919.
After clearing the whole race thing
out of the way, Michael started to ask
about the future. The conversation
felt like I was at an auction house.
"Flying Cars?
"No.
"Mechanical Men?
"No.
"Monorail cities?
"Um..no.
"Gigantic Statues of Teddy Roosevelt?
"Um, well sort of. There is a big
statue that has his face on it.
"Well, I guess four out of five ain't
bad.
Finally, he wanted to know where he
can check in and have someone take his
bags to his room. After reiterating
that this is not a hotel, took out a
cigar (Cuban), he chomped on it, and
said "Looks like I have a lot to learn
about this era, I should probably
stick around.
He's been here ever since.
Shadow", starring Alec Baldwin, is Michael's
favorite movie. AND his last name is
pronounced Bee-alla-scvghvchzvvsxski.
yeah thats true...mike is really from
the 1930-40's, but in a good way.
and he's a sharp dresser except for
the arsinio hall t-shirt man you
