IF YOU WERE OFFERED A 60-SECOND SPOT DURING PRIME-TIME TELEVISION TO
SAY OR PROMOTE ANYTHING YOU WANTED, HOW WOULD YOU USE THE TIME?
Katy Otto: I would talk about the wonder that is the Smoothie King, or
Pull n Peel twizzlers.
Bonnie Schlegel: I would promote the fuck out of myself... a 60 second shot
of me looking out a window with a side scrolling and flashing
statement of "CALL NOW TO HELP MY ASS OUT IN SOME WAY OR
ANOTHER...all credit cards, CODs and checks accepted" and in the
last 3 seconds, have the guy with the real rapid speech say
disclaimer: "once you pick up the phone and dial this number one
million dollars is transferred from your account into Bonnie's pocket".
YOUR HOME IS BURNING DOWN. EVERYONE -- FAMILY, PETS, ETC. -- IS

DO YOU GO AFTER?
Katy: The rad collage on an old drum head that my bandmate Bonnie
made for me.
Bonnie: My treasure chest (a huge one .. which I don't own yet I
might add...but the fact that I could plan ahead if this were ever to
occur...then that would surely be it). This includes my photo albums,
letters and other sentiments, etc., guitar, amp.

YOU ARE LOCKED IN A ROOM WITH A TICKING TIME BOMB. WITH 30 SECONDS
LEFT, YOU'VE GOT TO DECIDE WHETHER TO CUT THE RED WIRE, THE BLUE WIRE
OR THE GREEN WIRE. HOW DO YOU DECIDE WHICH WIRE TO CUT?
Katy: Cut the green. Things that appear safe often are not.
Bonnie: The 50-50-90 rule: Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of
getting something right, there's a 90% probability you'll get it
wrong. Divide that probability into the wire that you would cut
first, then the second divided by the last wire...leaving you with a
mindfuck and only .05 seconds left to say "oh shit"-- you know, in
that nonchalant way that you say things right before something bad
is about to happen. Go with the first wire, gut instinct. Because
eventually your first gut instinct leads to a second gut instinct and
before you know it, you have run out of all threelife lines and
Regis is not giving you a million dollars.

YOU'VE JUST FALLEN OFF A 200-STOREY BUILDING. THE FALL WILL TAKE AT

not at 200 centimeters.
