Though he is a very important and busy man, Recess has managed to catch up with the indefatigable Ren Provey, for whom the WEL walkway was named by our readers last week. In a very exclusive interview, this is what Ren had to say:
Recess: Tell us about yourself.
Mr. Provey: I actually grew up in a Teepee, no running water, no electricity, TV, that sort of thing. On winter nights we would all take turns running on the wheel to keep the heater going.
Where did you get the name Ren?
I was actually named after the cartoon.
Who would you say is your all-time personal hero?
Dolemite. I think that if there should be a role model out there for small children, it should definitely be a kung-fu pimp.
How did you feel about the voting controversy?
Ren: I actually voted for the "WEL of Fortune", I am not really sure how my vote was overlooked.
