Which TV chef would you want to have prepare a meal for you?
Rachel Ray, definitely... but would she stay for dessert too? ;)
List three things you'd buy with your last $20. One practical, one frivolous and one of your choosing.
A loaf of bread, a candy bar and a magazine/paperback book.
What's the best music documentary or concert film you've seen?
Well, I've got a few that are favorites, but recently I'd have to say Rammstein's "Volkerball"... the main show is from a concert in Nimes, France, and it is just amazing... I get so wound up every time I watch it... I've been a fan of their music for about 4 years now, and the show they put on is incredible, with the fire and pyrotechnics and even a little bit of theater in there as well... so right now that's my favorite concert film.
Who's the coolest culinary celebrity?
Oh, easy... Rachel Ray... she's just the hottest thing ever in the kitchen... a little goofy sometimes, but part of her charm.
Do professional athletes make too much money, or do they deserve every penny? Why?
I think they definitely make too much money, and I think it hurts them in the end... too much money, and they seem to do all the wrong things with it... look at all the drug and alcohol problems in sports... and look also at Michael Vick, and the "wonderful" uses he put his money to... he could have used his money and influence to work in his community, hometown or for kids... instead he decided to raise dogs to fight and be tortured and then be killed if they lost... it's a sad case of too much money and no morals... sometimes having a lot of money is the worst thing that can happen to a person.
What gift from a parent do you remember the most?
Submitted by jorge456.
Hmmmm, I have two that I have to mention... one is going way back, to when the old Atari 2600 was the hot thing for Christmas... and I knew my friends were all getting it, but my Mom kept saying it was too tight a Christmas, and she couldn't get it for me... I was bummed, but I understood... well, this was the one time ever she snuck one by me and surprised me... there it was Chrismas morning, and needless to say I was really happy...
... the other gift is more religious and sentimental... one year while I was in junior high, I was out sick a few days with a bad chest cold, and my Mom and Grandma went out shopping and left me home... when they came back, they had bought me a really nice hardcover copy of the Halley's Bible Handbook, kind of a reference/guidebook for the Bible... it was something I needed for school, but they got me a really beautiful copy of it, and while eating lunch they both signed it and wrote something special to me on the inside cover... my Mom and Grandma are both gone now, but I still have that book and their messages to me... I'll never part with it.
