Outgoing editor wants predecessor to cover him in ranch, thinks he's similar to Al Sharpton
Wildcat: Jeff, this is your last issue as editor of the Wildcat.
Sklar: I said that a year ago, too.
Wildcat: So you think you'll make a return to editor again?
Sklar: No. Not on your life.
Wildcat: Why not? You've had it? You're through? Nothing else you'd like to do?
Sklar: Every hair on my head is gray, Daniel.
Wildcat: Come on, nothing else you'd like to ruin at this paper? You've destroyed everything you can?
Sklar: (laughing) I've already ruined you.
Wildcat: Now, if you could identify most with one of the Democratic candidates for president, who would it be and why?
Sklar: A lot of people say I look like Al Sharpton.
Wildcat: You look like Al Sharpton?
Sklar: And I think I've got that excitement and vigor for the issues he does.
Wildcat: Just not the humor, wit or charm.
Sklar: Yeah, those would be key components of his personality, wouldn't they?
Wildcat: I see you more as Howard Dean. You get really hot and bothered and boiled about things.
Sklar: No, I don't. What are you talking about?
Wildcat: What's your Christmas wish, Jeff?
Sklar: I love scotch. If someone could buy me some Johnnie Walker, maybe Blue Label, they'd be my friend forever.
Wildcat: Your least favorite memory from the Wildcat?
Sklar: Well, I broke my finger two years ago in the Wildcat staff football game. That was a pretty low point. I had to have surgery - three pins stuck in my left pinky.
Wildcat: You're a salad, and I'm taking you through the salad bar, getting ready to eat you. What kind of dressing would you want me to pour all over you and why?
Sklar: You know, the last two years I've been a country music lover, so it would have to be ranch.
Wildcat: It's been a pleasure, Jeff. Good luck.
