Another Joshie Quiz!!!

THE FIRST QUIZ OF THE REST OF YOUR YEAR.

1) Tell me about your mother:
I pass…I love my mom, but I sincerely pass.

2) Describe 2005 in one word.
Better

3)If you were hosting Saturday Night Live, who would you want the musical guest to be?
Agree with Jeff Lindberg – Scissor Sisters

4) Tell us about something that's popular right now that you 'just don't get'.
The kids and that damn Japan-imation Yu Gi Oh! Dragon-Ball shit! I believe it creates attention deficit disorder in children.

5)When was the last argument you were in?
Can’t remember at all.

6)What is you Mantra?
"The power and glory of life derive from what one does with what one is given. It doesn’t matter where you start; it only matters where you are going.” - Arthur Oakman

7) A good nap or a good shit...?
Both, actually, at the same time... (Because everyone else was so upset by this question. Schmacko's First Rule of Inappropriate Social Interaction: If you cross the line, kids, make sure you take big strides!)

8)Who is your Mentor?
My college professor Susan Maroldo

9) Who, of all your friends, would you want to get into a physical fight with?
None of them – yuck! I am still recovering from my brothers fist-fighting each other at reunion!!!

10) Elphaba or Glinda?
Elphaba – anyone who knows me knows that I stand by my damn, flawed principle to the point of damage.

11) Make a sandwich.
Pioneer bread, a little mayonnaise, spicy mustard, thin-sliced vine-ripe tomatoes, thin sliced havarti dill cheese. Buttered on the outside and then toasted on the griddle until the bread is golden and the cheese starts to melt. I am such a tomato sandwich fan.

12)Do you believe in psychics?
I saw this question coming.

13) Favorite Ancient Empire.
Those whacky Mesopotamians!

14) What's a Question you want to see on one of these Quizzes?
If you were to play a character in a new Steve Miller play, what sort of character would you like to perform?

15) These are a few of my favorite things.
By far Schweetie my cat!!! Tazo Chai Tea (I know it’s becoming passe, but I still love it), the “On My Way” song and the “Card Game” song from the musical Violet, my new bedding, the new book Blink by Malcolm Gladwell, the elliptical machine at the gym, incredibly charming knuckle-draggers who look like they would be fun in bed without at lot of emotional baggage (that is the God’s-honest truth, people!)

16) Quick! Staring contest: you and me.
You would win, Joshie – I’d get a chubby and have to stop. Hehe

17) What is the most romantic thing you would want someone to say to you?
"I want to be there for you. I am willing to stand up to your bullshit in a kind, generous, constructive way. And I will always let you be there for me. Because you are and always will be worth every minute of it.” Why am I so honest with this stuff!?!?!?

18) Who is your Arch Enemy?
Anyone who says they can read minds (“I don’t need you to tell me, I already know what you think, and it’s the worst!”) Anyone who is a sociopath (i.e., thinks that laws and rules are only there to apply to others, and it is his job to find ways around them.) And I met both of these qualities in one person once!

19) Miss Scarlet, in The Study,
with...the candlestick AND the lead pipe, doing something dirty.

20) Now there's a fetish I could really get into...
Fantasy night (I’ll write the scripts!)

21) If it happens within our lifetime, would you want to help colonize Mars?
Yep.

22) Do you kiss hello?
No. Not on the first meet. After you have a close personal relationship, yes. But most gays do this a little too much for my comfort. I don’t want to even think about where their mouth has been!

23) So, what makes you so special...?
I have a freakish memory, especially toward stuff I read. I feel like I think like a playwright. I am quick-witted (too bad I never keep it to myself) I always have an opinion. I am kinda somewhat thick-skinned. I'm a bit of a survivor.

24) Would you rather be eaten by a crocodile or a shark?
Shark

25) Who are you really proud of right now?
Cathy is doing some cleaning, both physically and mentally, and I am the start of being proud (as long as she keeps it up). David is working with Anne Hering again, and so is Joshie. And The Orlando Theatre Project just did a stunning production of Coyote on a Fence with a stellar performance by Robbie Pigot and solid direction by Chris Jorie, which was so all good it makes me smug about having season tickets. (And that, people, is is a recommendation from Mr. "I-Can-Find Something-I-Hate-About-Everything!" - aka - me)
