I got nothin'

And so, a meme. These are the ten questions the great and creepy James Lipton asks each guest on Inside the Actor's Studio. (If you have never seen the show, this will give you a good idea of what it's all about.)

1. What is your favorite word?

Hyena

2. What is your least favorite word?

Begins with a "m" ends with an "t" and sounds like "hoist." Will punch you in the arm if you say it out loud.


3. What turns you on?

Wit

4. What turns you off?

Earnestness without passion or wit or whimsy

5. What is your favorite curse word?

Fuck. It's fucking fantastic, for fuck's sake.

6. What sound or noise do you love?

The sound of propane firing a hot-air balloon. Wind and things creaking in the wind, for example the sound of the wind on the top of Tesuque peak and the creaky sounds of the chair lift.

7. What sound or noise do you hate?

Slurping

8. What profession other than your own would you like to attempt?

Filmmaker

9. What profession would you not like to attempt?

Politician

10. If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?

Join me at the bar, won't you?
