Player Profile

This month we interviewed Wilbert5 for our player profile. He was talking so intelligent-like that I was getting very confused. :D

 

The REAL Wilbert5!

Does he look like what you thought he would?

age/sex/location?

see Frank7 bio on the madlib players page. but quickly, 43/m/michigan
Editor's Note- Bio moved to Wilbert5 now
you're Frank7?? I remember you! why the nick change?

tis me! I liked Wilbert, no other reason

rhymes with Dilbert

precisely

are you a Dilbert wannabe?

dilbert is the source of many a good lib answer. i feel like a dilbert at work. i'm in tech support too

what kind of work do you do? tech support?

computers, ibm, corporate computer, not PC's
you are a geek then?

absolutely. i could wow you with tales of Boolean Algebra and Karnaugh maps.

do I need a blanket and pillow while you tell me about it?

no, computers are fascinating. do you know what short-circuit Boolean evaluation is?

um, no. and do you wear thick black glasses?

I'm considering Lasik eye surgery. I have new glasses now. lost my old ones to the might Atlantic ocean. Don Knotts is probably wearing them now

LOL

you know, the incredible Mr. Limpett

yes, good and funny movie. whereabouts in michigan do you live?

Ann Arbor... about 30 miles west of detroit

cold up there now?

not at this moment.. unless you live in Florida. it's about 55 F. pretty warm for December

I live in Florida. it's in the 60s here now

how did I know that

you're psychic, Wil

i used short circuit Boolean evaluation on that one

are you married?

nope. i used short circuit Boolean evaluation on that one too

did you know that someone in #madlib loves you?

i didn't think so. but who

it's a she...that's one clue

that's a very good clue, because if it was a he it would go unrequited

yes, isn't it? she's a regular compared to irregular

i doubt if any regular in madlib is really 'regular'

and she's an op

that narrows it

there are your clues

does she have a beehive hairdo?

not usually, but sometimes she does

@:-) the beehive is a smiley
an on/off op

LOL, yes

I will ponder

tell us about your family....any brothers/sisters you tormented in your younger life?

8. 4 sisters. 3 bros. i am the youngest. traumatized because everyone always called me the 'baby' of the family

so you were the tormentee....I am so sorry

my brother, Billy the Bum once made me drink transmission fluid

did it taste good?

it wasn't too bad, kind of sweet tasting, nothing like the oil that Johnny made me drink
and did Billy the Bum get into trouble?

Billy went to the Navy, that's punishment enough. served in the Vietnam War, Gulf of Tonkin, so did Johnny. But Richard, he was an air force officer

were you ever in the armed services?

no military for me, just college and Michigan

you learned from your brothers, huh?

Definitely from Richard

have you lived in michigan all your life?

no, only for 15 years. am looking to move now
where?

east coast, south jersey, philly, or baltimore

why there?

they have wonderful crabs in August, I miss the ocean

crabs...as in the ocean kind

I want to find my glasses

so you're going back east to find your glasses. that's pretty persistant

actually, to be closer to my loved ones. now it takes me a grueling 13 hour drive to see them. I only get back to NY (where they live) twice a year. I could stand about once a month, no more. my sisters and mom live there

Wil....
have you thought about who loves you in #madlib?

yes

who?

is the nick a three letter acronym

_kitten_ counts on her paws. i think so

that rules out samoyed and sunnied

uh huh

jac???

BINGO! yes, JAC loves you
(Editor's note: JAC, quit drooling!!!!!!) ooops! Sorry! :)

i've known jac for many years, longer than anyone else on the 'net'

and you never knew about her love for you?

once i get resituated i am going to investigate that avenue. is resituated a word. it looks strange. maybe relocated is the word i'm looking for. if a location is a situation, then why isn't a relocation a resituation?

what brought you to #madlib?

CopprMane invited me

how long ago?

in the days when the question were in gray and yellow. years ago

that was a while back

I still had a 486

and you became addicted like the rest of us

me? addicted? yes way. it's like the Cheers of the 'net'

do you have a social life? I mean, I see you in the channel all the time. #madlib IS your social life?

not anymore. I work from 5:00 AM to afternoon. by the time social time arrives, I go to sleep. another reason I want to leave michigan

what are you hobbies?

i am a saturday morning mechanic, do landscaping, am a member of a nature club, go hiking

so you like to be one with Mother Nature?

exactly, great areas

what does the nature club do?

nature club picks a different place to explore each week and, i dunno, explore? good exercise. we also eat a lot

eat? what do you eat?

starbucks coffeee at the local barnes and noble or at a diner in the town wherever we are. these things are planned from the 'net'

how many people belong to this club?

about eight. we once ran into a gully, went walking for hours trying to get out. have seen homeless people living in the woods.
have gone to a place called Frankenmuth, Michigan,it's a Bavarian Village type of deal. but we don't explore during the winter.... too cold

what other channels do you frequent when online?

this is the only one I visit on a daily basis

no other games?

sometime acro ..... maybe once every other week. sometimes somebody in madlib will mention a channel in channel and i'll go there. but i do a lot of internet exploring too, searches and stuff

what do you search on?

often, it will relate to work, how to write html, what is ODBC, that kind of stuff

what makes you such a good #madlib player?

why thank you for the compliment. I try to infuse history into a lot of my answers. and I try to make the tense match with the question

trying to teach us something? :)

trying to make ppl remember stuff they already know

that sounds like you are a teacher, Wil

If you could hear my voice

do I want to?

i should have the nick Mumble01

LOL you could be Grumble

stumble

rumble

bumble. i will be TheBumbler

there ya go! lol

lol i like it

any words of wisdom you'd like to share with the channel?

yes i do. now, to think of them.........

LOL....I'll wait
_kitten_ waits

education, intelligence, SAT's. ACT. the ScareCrow (if he only had a brain). these are words of wisdom

and ones that all of us will live by

oh, and I went to Wisdom Lane Elementary School. but really, people should keep on playing as long as it amuses them. that's what madlib is for

anything else you'd like to add?

yes. my best madlib answer to: When a telemarketer calls, it is best to ____________

Ans: dial 3-3-3-5 over and over (Beethoven's Fifth)


there you have it

 

 

Special thanks to Wilbert5 for taking time out of his busy life of being a computer geek and being at one with Mother Nature to be interviewed.
