Editor’s Note: In lieu of Rok Finger’s absence, he asked us to print a friendly filler message from his roommate Camembert.

Hello. I’m Camembert Morgen and I suppose I should introduce myself as Rok Finger’s roommate. Since Rok couldn’t fit a column into his schedule this week, he asked me to fill in for him. Well, he ordered me, but it’s not like I listen to him. I’m not scared of him. My girlfriend can beat him up. He’s small. Honestly, I’m not scared.

As I said, Rok couldn’t do this column this week. Don’t worry, it’s not a bad thing—not for Rok, anyway. He married an unlucky woman named Ginger Baker over the weekend. Good for him, I say. Terrible for her. I guess she thinks he’s rich or something. Maybe she’s fooled by the velour suit he wears whenever they go on dates. I don’t know. Maybe he has some inner qualities that make him attractive. Though I’ve never seen any.

I guess I should tell you a little about myself. I can’t imagine Rok would waste time in a professional website column talking about his roommate. I’m Camembert, as I said, and I have a hot girlfriend, Loretta. Rok and I are distantly related. Very distantly. I’m his ex-wife’s sister’s son. But our relationship is a lot closer than that, really, since he paralyzed me, moved into my apartment uninvited, made me a mob target, got me kidnapped by pirates, and generally made my life hell on a daily basis. But he did introduce me to my girlfriend, so I suppose things are about even. Now that he’s married, I’m hoping to get out on my own with my girlfriend and make a new life for myself. God willing.

I can’t believe anyone really wants to hear about the wedding, but I’m sure if you’re fans of Rok Finger, I can’t believe you exist anyway. I’ll describe the wedding so as not to embarrass myself further with revealing details about me.

The bride wore a lovely black dress, and the groom wore a tuxedo that he may have gotten from a ventriloquist dummy. But you can’t tell—one of the better fitting suits in his little collection. They wrote their own vows, but I don’t think I heard too many of his because the crowd was laughing very loudly. Rok never makes me laugh, personally, but if you had to live with him you probably wouldn’t laugh either. I think the vows were very adamant about who washes the dishes, and he might have swore a little, but that’s hardly shocking for Rok.

There was one slightly amusing part for me, I admit. The flower girl, Ginger’s daughter Becky, was actually taller than Rok. You don’t see that very often. Flower girls taller than the groom, I mean. Everybody’s taller than Rok. Heck, even in my chair I’m a little taller than he is. But don’t tell him—he gets outraged about it.

After the ceremony, which was mercifully short outside of the vows, we threw rice at the newlyweds. Rok threw beans back. I’m not sure why he had beans with him. He might have just anticipated the rice and wanted something to fight back with. Again, I’m not surprised. But they piled into his car with the special high-pedals and drove off on their honeymoon. He told me where they were going but I didn’t bother to commit it to memory. I’m better off not knowing where he is. If the Feds ask me.

So what do they do here at the commune? I’m writing this from home, and although I’ve got internet access, I’ve never bothered to read the site myself. I get enough Rok Finger at home, thank you. For another thing, I can’t swallow any of that news they put out each week. Does anybody actually believe that stuff? Ah, but I’m no critic. I’m just a regular guy trying to help out a maniacal roommate while he enjoys the silence in the house with his girlfriend, Loretta.

Did I mention I have a girlfriend? She is H-O-T hot, too. And she’s real.
