Ten Questions

On a list to which i belong this post came along by a friend of mine; she thought it'd be interesting to see how people responded. i agree, and thought that my little 'blog world' might find it interesting as well. my own answers are below.

I happen to like to watch Inside The Actors Studio on Bravo from time to time. At the end of each interview, the ten questions by Bernard Pivot that host James Lipton asks are: What is your favorite word? What is your least favorite word? What turns you on [creatively, spiritually or emotionally]? What turns you off? What is your favorite curse word? What sound or noise do you love? What sound or noise do you hate? What profession other than your own would you like to attempt? What profession would you not like to do? If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?
