I got my interview questions from Miss Anthropy. (Thanks, Miss A. Great questions.)
1. What movie character would you most like to have an affair with?
This isn’t as easy as I thought it would be. I’ll go with Roland Bozz (Colin Farrell) in “Tigerland.” Bozz has a wild side that I think would be good for me, along with a basic sweet nature. Plus, he’s Colin Farrell, for god’s sake. Second choice – James Brolin’s character in “Westworld.”
2. What is the sound of one hand clapping?
I don’t know, but I think it has something to do with a tree falling in the woods.
3. What kind of animal would you most like to be?
For some reason I don’t understand, my first instinct was to say “koala.” Maybe it has something to do with munching on eucalyptus all day.
4. If you, Andrea, and Mrs. du Toit were the last people on Earth, with whom would you rather preserve the human race?
Do I *have* to? Sigh. Truthfully, if it were only the three of us left, I think maybe the smart thing would be to let the human race die.
5. What?s the most important quality a person should have?
That’s easy: a sense of humor. Everything else follows.
I’d be interested in participating.
Do it again, Daddy!
Tiffany:
1. Why do you have a weblog?
2. I already know people online who call themselves “Cranky Chick” and “Lisa Crankypants.” What makes you worthy of the “Miss Cranky” title? And why is cranky so prevalent online?
3. What’s the difference between cat people and dog people, apart from the obvious?
4. What’s the most irritating thing about the internet?
5. Who is your hero and why?
John:
1. If you had to give up reading, writing or speaking forever, which would you choose?
2. What’s your favorite non-fiction book?
3. What movie character would you most like to have an affair with?
4. Why are people so mean?
5. If you could enact one law in this country that would affect all citizens, what would it be?
Bonus question: Where will you post these answers, since all your sites are currently on hiatus?
I know I’m basically a complete stranger to you, but could you interview me as well?
Lily: Sure. Here goes.
1. You describe yourself as an oxymoron. Why?

3. Describe what you would like your life to be in 20 years, when you’re my age.
4. What’s your favorite movie of all time?
5. What do you fear?
Also a stranger, but what inna hell ever. How did I get here? I think via John Kusch. Interview me! I’m ready for my closeup!

Fire away.
Caliban:
1. What three CDs would you bring with you on a desert island (along with a boombox and generator, of course)?
