Q: Why is the word ‘bra’ singular and the word ‘panties’ plural?
A: I don’t know. Why do you park in a driveway and drive on a parkway? Why do they call it an apartment when they’re all stuck together?
Q: Did you have anything to do with stealing the safe at The Roadhouse?
A: No. If I did, I’d be in California smoking medical marijuana with my brother.
Q: If you could be anyone on Folly for a week, who would you be and why?
A: I’d be myself. I don’t want to be anyone else. The best person to be on Folly is me!
Q: What did you want to be when you were eight years old?
A: I wanted to be a policeman. Now I wouldn’t think of being a cop, unless it was to confiscate certain things.
Q: What’s the craziest thing that’s happened to you on Folly?
A: Getting arrested for having expired tags when I first moved here. He wanted to teach me a lesson. He kept saying, “If you try to fight me, I’ll taze you.”
Q: What’s the most interesting thing that happened while you were living with Bugbee?
A: When we were riding home on our bikes one night, I was behind him and I watched him pass out while he was pedaling. He fell in a ditch.
Q: What’s in your fridge right now?
A: A 12-pack of Bud Light, half a bottle of Red Stag, a two-liter of Mountain Dew and something I cooked in a crock-pot two weeks ago. I don’t know what it is anymore.
Q: What is your favorite quote?
A: “If you’re lucky enough to be on Folly, you’re lucky enough.”
