Well, thank you very much for a wonderful song, Tony.
Moroni, what a voice that guy’s got, eh?
Just like my wife,in fact, a lovely voice, but not a damn thing to say!
No, but seriously, of course, I’m not married.
I’m still open to offers; all sorts of offers!
Enough of that. This, needless to say, is the Baz
Boxer show, with me, Baz Baxter,
and I’d like you to give a specially warm welcome to my next guest.
She’s the author of numerous newspaper and magazine articles on the subject of terrorism, and of a soon to be published book.
She’s been called “The Terror of Terrorists”. All the way from Germany. I’d like to introduce you to Kristi Schmidt!
Great to have you on the show, Kristi!
Thank you. It’s nice to be here.
That’s a very smart dress you’re wearing.
I’m glad you like it.
It’s low cut, isn’t it? Are you sure you put it on the right way around?
Seriously though, I love your hairstyle, with all those thick black curls. Great! Is it yours, by the way?
Yes, of course it is!
Funny, I was certain it was a wig. Anyway, all this has absolutely nothing to do with the reason you’re on the show.
Which is of course to tell us all about terrorism.
So Kristi, you’re the expert.
Why does it happen, and what can we do about it, eh?
Hey, Annie; come and have a look at this!
What’s on, Baz Baxter? Jean, I’m surprised at you!
What about that lady he’s talking to?
I don’t believe it! That’s Kristi!
So, one has to try to see the phenomenn of terrorism in the whole context of contemporary western society.
Whoa there! Take it easy with the long words, Kristi.
This is a family show.
We mustn’t get too intellectual for Mr. And Mrs. Average Idiot, must we?
No, but seriously, I’m impressed by your English. It makes me ashamed at the way I speak the language. Where did you learn English;did your mommy have lots of American soldier friends, or are you just a born talker?
Well, my native language is German, of course. I’ve never actually studied English, in fact, I’ve just picked it up through traveling, and reading, and through my work, obviously.
Amazing what you can pick up, isn’t it? Of course the problem then is, how do you get rid of it?
Anyway, enough of this intellectual stuff ;what the audience here, and of course all you gorgeous viewers at home,
want, is “human interest”, I believe, Kristi (correct me if I’m mistaken)” that you’re close friends
with a member of a terrorist gang, who are also into drug smuggling. How about that eh, folks?
That’s not quite accurate. I do have a friend, called Annie Peters, who is a member of a group of radical environmentalists.
But I wouldn’t call her-
Sure, and her father, who pretended to be dead, but in fact is still alive,
was the boss of a world-wide cocaine-smuggling ring! Wow!
Not exactly the boss, but-
I read your article about them in the “Sunday Post”. Exciting stuff! Keep up the good work, Kristi.
You’re not giving at all an accurate account of what I wrote.
What I in fact said was-
But go easy on those long words, know what I mean?
Well, that’s all we’ve got time for this week, I’m afraid.
So, it’s a huge great thank you from me to all my guests for appearing on the show, and to all you marvelous people out there.
I just loved having you- know what I mean?
Come again next week! Bye-bye for now!
It’s unbelievable! What a nerve she’s got, calling herself my friend, apart from anything else!
What are you going to do about it?
Well, first of all I’d better read her article in the “Sunday Post”.I’ll go down to the library,
they should have a copy of it. Then… well, I know this lady called Carol, who’s a lawyer.
I’ll ask if she thinks I could sue Kristi, or maybe sue the newspaper as well.
I can think of simpler and quicker solutions.
I know what you mean. Well, I’ll go down to the library now. See you later, Jean.
