This Month we get comfy with “ a hurricane of creative energy” (according to &lt;/span&gt;&lt;i style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;Cosmopolitan&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;), &lt;/span&gt;&lt;i style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;The Star calls &lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;him “the most famous face in South Africa.” Actor, presenter, comic, corporate MC, voice artist, script and screen writer, Colin Moss presented Fear Factor, Idols, starred in Isidingo, now he’s the Leading Man in a South African movie And most importantly he was a past pupil of then University of Natal (now UKZN) Lets hear what he had to say…&lt;/span&gt;&lt;?xml:namespace prefix = o /&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoBodyText2" style="TEXT-ALIGN: right" align="right"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA" style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal"&gt;J.J.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoBodyText2" style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;JJ:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA" style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;Have there been any moments on fear factor that have made you think, “I’m so glad I’m not a contestant!” and if so which ones? And what is your fear?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;CM:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt; I wasn’t too freaked out about the challenges. In fact, I was keen to try some of them, especially the car ramp, but production wouldn’t allow it.&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;But the stuff they had to eat in some of the challenges really grossed me out. I could not have done that.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;What is my fear?&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Manto becoming President.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoBodyText2"&gt;&lt;i style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;JJ:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt; As an Idols presenter, you must be aware of any scandal or moments of hilarity that go on backstage, any anecdotes you can share?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;CM:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt; Not really. I am not privy to what goes on behind the scenes in the house. I only see them before the shows when they’re nervous. Oh, Andriette did lose a toenail shortly before last week’s performance and managed not to limp in the show. I don’t know how she did that.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoBodyText2" style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;JJ:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt; Do you start to get a “sixth sense” for who has the best chance to win idols, after doing so may episodes?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;CM:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt; I do generally have a pretty good idea about who should make it to the top three, but&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;I am still sometimes surprised at the audience votes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;JJ:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt; Your new movie, “Big Fellas”, what is your take on it?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;CM: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;Big Fellas is a controversial and irreverent comedy about BEE and quota systems featuring some of the best comic performers in the country, including Cokey Falkow,&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Marc Lottering, Louw Venter and Kagiso Lediga. I think that South Africans are going to enjoy it no matter where they stand on the BEE issue.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoBodyText2"&gt;&lt;i style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;JJ: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;With such a varied cast, from comedians to models, there must have been some really interesting moments, on and off set. Which were your favourites?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;CM: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;On set – the scenes that we improvised with Cokey were highlights for me. There are a couple of scenes where there was no script and we were just riffing. They turned out to be some of the best moments in the film.&lt;span style="color:blue;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;Off set – Killing time together at 1 am in the hot springs in Warm Waterberg on the R62.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;JJ:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt; What was it like working with “Big Fellas” co- star/producer/writer Ross Garland, your old varsity mate, after all these years?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;CM: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;It was great! Ross really understands the business of film in this country. It’s also great that he was so open to the process of being organic – he allowed us as comics to bring a lot to the party.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoBodyText2"&gt;&lt;i style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;JJ:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt; As a UN-D old boy, have you gone back to see how its changed? Do you feel any tie or connection to the campus?&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;CM: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;Unfortunately I do not get to Durban often, so I have not been back to the campus.&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;But I do have very fond memories of my years at the University of Natal, Durban campus, particularly the drama and music departments. I loved my years at uni.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoBodyText2" style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;JJ: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;Whilst you were still a student there did you think you ever make it to where you are now or did you think you’d always be working at Elizabeth Sneddon theatre?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;CM: (Laughs)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt; One thing you need in this industry is faith in yourself. If you haven’t got that right from the beginning, you might as well give up there and then.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;Not that I didn’t really enjoy my time at the Elizabeth Sneddon. I learned one of my best lessons there … It was a Shakespeare and I was chatting up a fine young woman backstage and missed my cue. I had to run on to stage in half a costume and I improvised by saying, “excuse my state of undress … I was in the shower” or something to that effect. Prof Scholtz said to me afterwards “everybody in this industry gets just ONE opportunity to screw up…. That was yours!”&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;I have never forgotten that and I don’t think I’ve screwed up since.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt;JJ:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; How important is varsity education to being an actor or presenter?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt;CM: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt;I don’t think it’s absolutely vital, but it certainly helps. I see a University education to be more about becoming an erudite, educated and well-rounded person. It’s helped me more as a writer than as an actor.&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"  style="color:blue;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;I do think that the drama department could consider more practical things in the syllabus, like some of the film schools, especially on camera acting. The syllabus is entirely theatre based and that’s a pity because on camera acting is very different. Film school graduates have a heads up on that when they start out on a screen career.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;JJ: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;If you had to describe yourself in 5-10 words what would they be?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;CM: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;Loyal, tenacious, ambitious, approachable and hard working. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;JJ:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt; To quote Oprah’s timeless question: if you were a tree what type of tree would it be?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;CM: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;That’s a crazy question … I think the interviewer perhaps needs to lay off the boom…&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;JJ: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;What is your fondest memory of your time (till the present) on TV/the big screen?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;CM: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;I have loved it all but have very fond memories of my beginning as Stewart Buller in Isidingo and the colleagues I worked with. My highlight so far was attending the premiere of The World Unseen at the Toronto Film Festival in September. Because I’m in the movie, I had full accreditation and it was awesome partying with the international cast and meeting people in the American film industry and New York agents.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoBodyText2"&gt;&lt;i style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;JJ:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt; If you had to say that acting/presenting (or life in general) has taught any inspiring lessons, what would they be?&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;CM:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt; To get over yourself.&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;When you fall, gut up and dust yourself off and get back in the saddle. Don’t take anything the press says about you to heart – good or bad. Oh, and always remember that auditions are just a part of the job. If you don’t get a role, you can’t take it personally – you might be the wrong look, the wrong colour hair … whatever … it’s not personal.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoBodyText2"&gt;&lt;i style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;JJ: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;You’re an Actor (both on Stage and Screen), an Idols Presenter, a comedian, and a Celebrity MC, but what do you do in your free time (if such a thing exists)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;CM:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt; I scuba dive and surf. And I have to make time for my girlfriend … but I have taught her how to surf now.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoBodyText2" style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;(With a bit of detective work I found that Colin’s Scuba Diving was Advanced Nitrox. He’s also a saxophonist, Fencer, Sky Diver, Sand boarder, does Muaythai and dances Argentina Tango. Wow, what can’t he do?)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA" style="FONT-STYLE: normal"&gt;If our positions were exchanged, and you’re the varsity student writing an article on the big time TV Presenter, and you had one question to ask, and everything depended on it. What would it be? And what would your answer be? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA" style="FONT-STYLE: normal"&gt;I would ask, “What’s the most important ingredient in achieving your goals in the industry?”&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;I would answer, “Keep your humility. Know that fame and celebrity status is a temporary and fragile thing. Be approachable, hard working and flexible. Respect everybody you work with and make friends with the crew – they can make or break you. Know that you might be the star, but you are just a cog in the machine that pulls the show together.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;If anyone wants any more info on the Movie “Big Fellas” &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-ZA"&gt;(also staring Hakeem Kae-Kazeem, Lee-Anne Summers, Carling Erntzen, Cokey Falco, Kagiso Lediga, Marc Lottering, Louw Venter, Minki van der Westhuizen, Gina Athans, Grethe Fox, Lesley Mongezi.)&lt;b&gt; releasing on the 23&lt;sup&gt;rd&lt;/sup&gt; November at Nu Metro Cinema’s they should go to &lt;a href="http://www.bigfellasmovie.com/" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.bigfellasmovie.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2236856824718146954-1324729491353650232?l=evendren.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://evendren.blogspot.com/feeds/1324729491353650232/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2236856824718146954&amp;postID=1324729491353650232&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2236856824718146954/posts/default/1324729491353650232'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2236856824718146954/posts/default/1324729491353650232'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://evendren.blogspot.com/2007/10/on-couch-with-jj-colin-moss-interview.html' title='On the Couch with JJ - Colin Moss Interview'/><author><name>Evan John</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='20' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-59iGLvtImHA/TaaAnEUHldI/AAAAAAAAAE8/g_9ESjgKhfg/s220/37368_10150190751520551_706400550_13018808_7037003_n.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_zLIThr3IDhk/RxpFkL8V5mI/AAAAAAAAABQ/uKOsG43XMqU/s72-c/Ivok+Studios+230.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2236856824718146954.post-3104728843735982330</id><published>2007-05-04T10:33:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2007-05-04T10:50:21.533+02:00</updated><title type='text'>A Zodiac that I wrote up...</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Aries&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is not your month, avoid ladders, black cats, mirrors and your ex.

With some friends I am one person, with others I'm someone else. I'm not the same person with my mom that I am with my dad. Every person makes me someone new.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have 20 000 masks and  choosing the right one  is 2nd nature. I even have a  mask for when I'm on my own, the mask of a philosopher, working out the meaning of life (not quite 42). with out my masks I am no-one; they are like a diamond, each mask representing different facets of my personality. You cant take facets away from a diamond, cut one off and you leave another.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My masks and I are inseparable, I am my masks and some of them I'd never masquerade in front of my friends or others. Billy Joel's "&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;The Stranger&lt;/span&gt;" explains it perfectly: "&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Well, we all a face, that we hide away forever and we take them out and show ourselves when everyone has gone. Some are satin, some are steel, some are silk and some are leather. They're the faces of a stranger but we love to try them on... though we share so many secrets there are some we never tell...why were you so surprised that you never saw stranger? Did you ever let your lover see the stranger in yourself?"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some masks will never be seen, even by me, as the right occasion will probably never present itself. Some masks are grotesque and deformed and others are creative and seamless. the latter are ones I'd prefer to have been seen the most by the time I meet my maker.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't believe I am the only con-artist, but that we all are deceiving everyone we know, hiding, changing. None of us ever really knows everything about anyone, even ourselves!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yet we don't accept masks that others show us by mistake, we scorn them without thinking about the fact it is actually a privellage to have seen and learn't something new about someone. We could easily have worse masks, that we are too afraid to show for fear we may be scorned as we scorn.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe we should all show some of our  masks in the spirit of acceptance. Maybe then the world will be a beter place to live in. But alas we can't; there are always some who won't come to the party, afraid that their skeleton's are to decayed to show and don't realise we're all the same and just wont acceptance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although some can and do show their skeletons to others of like mind, and they are met with sympathy, if not empathy, instead of scorn. They are far happier than the poor souls who keep themselves to themselves and must trudge through through  life with heavy burdens untill they die and Jesus releases them of their  burdens.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2236856824718146954-497362720871050214?l=evendren.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://evendren.blogspot.com/feeds/497362720871050214/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2236856824718146954&amp;postID=497362720871050214&amp;isPopup=true' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2236856824718146954/posts/default/497362720871050214'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2236856824718146954/posts/default/497362720871050214'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://evendren.blogspot.com/2007/02/real-me.html' title='The Real Me'/><author><name>Evan John</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='20' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-59iGLvtImHA/TaaAnEUHldI/AAAAAAAAAE8/g_9ESjgKhfg/s220/37368_10150190751520551_706400550_13018808_7037003_n.jpg'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2236856824718146954.post-7868169510072848932</id><published>2007-02-08T01:28:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2007-03-26T12:25:36.338+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='flirt'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='venus'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='tease'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='poem'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cow'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='love'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bitch'/><title type='text'>Venus</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Venus, what the hell?&lt;br /&gt;Venus, your a bitch!&lt;br /&gt;your skirt you hitch,&lt;br /&gt;you reveal what I'm missing&lt;br /&gt;and start with light kissing.&lt;br /&gt;You whet my appetite with your smooth curves&lt;br /&gt;and promise me all sorts of lurves.&lt;br /&gt;You tease and flirt,&lt;br /&gt;but your plan was to hurt.&lt;br /&gt;Venus you make me wan to scream and yell.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Venus, go to hell!&lt;br /&gt;Venus your a cow!&lt;br /&gt;Before its made, you break the vow.&lt;br /&gt;You should be shot,&lt;br /&gt;as you flee in the sunset on your yacht.&lt;br /&gt;You  lurk just out of reach,&lt;br /&gt;I'm drowning yet you won't step of the beach.&lt;br /&gt;You  lovingly plant the seed,&lt;br /&gt;then rip out the Rose like a weed.&lt;br /&gt;Venus, it hurts, can't you tell?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2236856824718146954-7868169510072848932?l=evendren.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://evendren.blogspot.com/feeds/7868169510072848932/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2236856824718146954&amp;postID=7868169510072848932&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2236856824718146954/posts/default/7868169510072848932'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2236856824718146954/posts/default/7868169510072848932'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://evendren.blogspot.com/2007/02/venus.html' title='Venus'/><author><name>Evan John</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='20' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-59iGLvtImHA/TaaAnEUHldI/AAAAAAAAAE8/g_9ESjgKhfg/s220/37368_10150190751520551_706400550_13018808_7037003_n.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
