The answer to my questions

Thanks to those of you who took the time out of your day to answer a bunch of useless questions. Like myself, I'm assuming you are the ones who work the smartest because you get your work done quicker which explains why you have more extra time in the day. If we were face to face, I'd give you a fist pump, maybe a hi-five.

I genuinely enjoyed reading your answers -- I would date you. Your answers reveal a little more about you and I love learning more about people, especially people I like.

Here are my answers. 
1.) What is your dream job?
Be a writer for the following:
A comedy show (Tina Fey is my hero)
Travel publication
Food publication
Music publication
(I basically want to do anything that will pay me to travel, eat or listen to music and attend concerts and shows. If I were in college I'd say a political newspaper reporter or work on a show like Frontline-- but that's when I believed I could change the world and all that crap.)


2.) What is something you would do that you had absolutely no skill or knowledge of doing right now? 
Be a comedy writer or be a Slam Poet, Rapper/hip-hop artist, or be a hip-hop dancer and compete in a dance-off. You got served.

3.) If you could get paid to do anything (that is not currently an actual occupation), what would it be? 
A Nomad. I would also love to get paid to talk to random people because one of my favorite things to do is listen to other people's take on life. The more eccentric they are, the better.

4.) Name 5 bands or artists you would like to see perform live at least once in your lifetime.
The Cure, Radiohead, Bob Marley, Prince and Janet Jackson (the old Janet. Think Rhythm Nation). 
A list of five is too short. I can think about this one for days.

5.) If you were in a band, who would you be and why?
The Drummer because they are typically mysterious which elevates their hotness level. We usually only hear about the lead singer and the guitar player.

6.) If you could be any character in any book, who would you be and why?
Sal from On The Road because he was friends with Dean Moriarty. 
I would pick a woman character, except that I can't think of any book where the heroin is not crazy, pathetic, lame, desperate or obnoxious. If I had to pick a woman I guess I'd pick the chick from Confessions of a Shopaholic because she charged up her credit cards buying clothes and nabbed herself a hot rich guy in the end to help pay for it all.


7.) If you could punch anyone in the face, who would it be and why?
My brother because for as long as I can remember, he tells me he'd like to punch me in the face. 

8.) Do you have an award speech? Or if you could get any award, what would it be?
As a kid I had a speech for winning a Grammy for Best New Artist, but that seems kind of lame now. Does making the cover of the Sports Illustrated Magazine Swimsuit edition count as an award?

9.) What is your favorite meal of the day?
Breakfast for dinner.


10.) Whose mind would you like to borrow for a day?
I have a couple:
Karl Rove to see what it's like to be an evil genius.
Gisele Bundchen to see what it's like to be deemed one of the sexiest women alive.
George Clooney to see what it's like to be a "man's man."
Molly Atkinson so I don't have to keep trying to understand why she does the things she does.

  1. OMG! Your last sentence could not be any perfect...especially since she is MIA on her honeymoon. She said he would be in town today, but the hotel had their reservation for last night. Once again it's a mystery...but I"m thinking she just lost her phone again.

  2. 4) The Cure & Old Janet! I'm in!! Jump in my Delorian and we'll go!

    6) My first thought was "I'd be Becky Bloomwood from COAS" but then I thought you'd think I was stupid so I went another way. I didn't even think about being a guy. I was so close-minded on this one.

    9) Great answer!

    10) The last line is the best ever!
