Questions and Answers

I usually don't get into stuff about actors. All those magazines (like People), tabloids, and all those TV shows (like Entertainment Tonight). It's all gossip, and cheap entertainment. I don't read/watch them, because I don't like them. I always think that there are better things to do with my time.

But, there is one show I do watch. It's Inside the Actor's Studio on the Bravo network. James Lipton is the host, and he has a no-nonsense, non-tabloid approach to his questions. It's refreshing. The show is an hour long interview with it's guest...usually actors, but some musicians and directors, etc. After the interview, James Lipton always asks every guest the following questions (see below). I have always been amazed at the answers some of my favourite actors give. It's worth watching the show each week just to see what the answers will be. So, I thought I would post my answers to those famous questions here...

What is your favorite word? -- Love
What is your least favorite word? -- Ignorance
What turns you on? -- the smell of the forest after a rainfall
What turns you off? -- negative people
What sound or noise do you love? -- The sounds of nature...birds chirping, rain falling, kittens purring, etc.
What sound or noise do you hate? -- the sound of someone throwing up. I HATE it when they put that in a movie. BIG turnoff.
What is your favorite curse word? -- When I was younger, I remember my Grandma used to say "SHITAGODDAMN". All together like that. Like it was one word. I knew, early on, that it was a swear word. But I thought it sounded "nicer" than the F word or anything else, and couldn't wait until I was old enough to use it myself.
What profession, other than your own, would you like to attempt? -- I've always wanted to be a Marine Biologist and work with sea turtles. Or an actor.
What profession, other than your own, would you not like to do? -- I would hate to work with dead people. Mortician, Funeral Home director, undertaker, executioner....not for me.
And, if Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates? -- Do you wanna go again?

Let me know what your answers are!
