Five Questions and Five Answers

January 29, 2009 11:55 PM

Lee posted this meme on her blog. Basically, someone e-mailed her five questions, she posted them and the answers, and then invited her readers to comment asking to receive five questions themselves, which they then posted and answered. So, if any of you want me to ask you five questions for your own blogs--or for my own edification--you should comment. Or, if you don't want your e-mail address floating around in cyberspace, e-mail me.

Anyway, JLee's questions and my answers.

1. If you could join any band (any time in history) which would you choose?
This is an interesting question. On the one hand, the obvious answer is The Smashing Pumpkins. But, on the other hand, it would suck to be Billy Corgan's bitch, even if you would get to play some of the best songs ever with him. So what band would be fun to be in but would also allow for some creative expression? Radiohead might be fun, but they don't really do badass rock guitar solos, which I'd want to do. So who, then? Weezer? The Pixies? Maybe the Stones?

2. Would you choose to be the most talented, smartest, or most handsome man in the world? (You can't say "all of the above" lol)
Definitely the smartest. Beauty fades, and talent is overrated. I mean, being the most amazing guitarist or singer or painter or whatever would be cool, but it wouldn't be important. On the other hand, being the smartest man in the world would set me up to do some really important things. Barack Obama's super smart, and he's got the whole world believing in America again. Bill Gates is really smart, and he's the biggest philanthropist the world has ever known. Intelligence opens doors that talent and good looks just can't, and it can help other people in a real, meaningful way. So I'd go with being the smartest person in the world.

3. What is your dream car?
My dream attainable car is an Infiniti G37 coupe. That thing is badass, although I think I liked the looks of the G35 a little more.

4. What pet did you have growing up?
I had two, a little black and white dog with huge ears named Penguin and a white lab named Blanca. They were friggin' awesome. Or, well, mostly Blanca was. I cried when she died.

5. Would you rather be independently wealthy or be satisfied in a career you love?
Are these two mutually exclusive? I guess it doesn't really matter--I'd choose to be independently wealthy in either case. I mean, who wouldn't? I'd live on a giant yacht and sail around the world, solving mysteries and seducing exotic women. Who'd choose some job over that?

just wanna say. reasons for #1: i think you'd (the royal you) would want to be in a band that is at a forefront of a major movement, so the pixies would be out. frankly, i don't know if i'd pick this b/c you'd be mic and keith's bitch, but it would be hard to top the stones. maybe the greatful dead? lifelong fame, awesome life, good time to live, rock royalty, but not over famed. all members were somewhat considered equal. #2 your reasons are ass backwards and ridiculous, although i would prolly pick the same answer. beauty does fade, but so does intellect of which memory must be a party, not to mention mental health disease (see-ted Kaczynsk), and talent is overrated? really? what about a "talented" politician? Otto Van Bismarck was not considered a genius but his talent for political persuasion and manipulation formed what we know as Germany. I'd say thats pretty long reaching. i suppose "talent" should be debated. likewise, dr. dre and jay-z's talent for the rap game managed to end the east coast - west coast rap feud, saving perhaps millions of lives. DOESN'T THAT MEAN ANYTHING?!?

Barack Obama is both smart and talented. He has the ideas and the ability to express them. And he's hot. So basically, he's all three.
