Ask 'Junkyard Wars Diva' Cathy Rogers

Junkyard Wars (and the British Scrapheap Challenge) have long been popular with Slashdot readers. Now Cathy is co-host of a new show, Full Metal Challenge, that also involves teams building strange machines out of this and that. Take a look at this 'Cathy' fan site (and possibly her less interesting official biography), then ask away. (Usual Slashdot interview rules.)

Re:Henry Rollins

[MsGeek]

That guy is a complete muscleheaded retard. He's not an engineer. He doesn't know shit about shit. He's perhaps the least qualified person I can imagine to be providing commentary on this type of a show. Remember Carmen Elektra's out-of-place cluelessness on Battlebots? Same deal here, except who wants to look at some 40+ man with some old, dumb tattoos, grecian formula hair treatment, and a jock attitude?!?

I KNOW Henry Rollins. It is obvious that you are an idiot troll and are also totally clueless about Rollins and his work. Rollins is NOT a, quote: "muscleheaded retard". In fact, he is one of the most intelligent and sensitive individuals I have ever met.

Is a person who not only is physically but mentally fit, in spite of being 40, an impossibility? Were you dropped on your head a few too many times by jocks in High School?

Why don't you sit down and actually WATCH some footage of Rollins doing his spoken-word stuff? Someone dubbed him a "Stand-up Poet" and that's actually pretty close to the mark. He's FUNNY. He's clever. He's sensitive, amazingly enough.

I also know I'm being trolled, that I've lost, and I should have a nice day. But man, when someone who is of your acquaintance who you know to NOT be a "muscleheaded retard", you have to respond. Rollins is a national treasure. I'm glad he's successful. You, sir, are obviously jealous of his status.
