Stuck in a closet with Vanna White Gimme 5

   Posted by: Yoggie    in Gimme 5

1. With which celebrity would you like to be trapped in an elevator?
Raquel Welch, grrrrroooowwwwllllll. Damn, I could look at her all day. But then she would start to freak out after a few minutes with me gawkin’ at her.

2. Which VIP would you like to be for one day?
I wouldn’t want to be a VIP. I couldn’t handle all the fame and invasion into my privacy, even for one day.

3. Which home of a VIP would you like to have?
I’m not too impressed with the homes of VIPs. I tend to have simpler tastes, although the one Jennifer Tilly has seems to be a nice one. (She is someone else I wouldn’t mind getting stuck in an elevator with.)

4. Celebrities with a pet – top or flop?
Depends on the celebrity. It is not so much as the pet but how the person treats the pet. People like Paris Hilton is a total flop because she seems to see pets as a status symbol instead of a companion.

5. Which VIP is the most unlikeable?
Rush Limbaugh.

Mood: kissable

Growing up Friday Five

   Posted by: Yoggie    in Friday Five

1. What did you want to be when you grew up?
An artist. Yeah, you can name the number of kids you knew in school that wanted to be an artist on one hand.

2. Did you follow through? If not, what happened?
Somewhat. I dabble and keep my hands in sketching and painting, but I don’t have it as a career. There is not enough money in art to raise a family.

3. Is your life turning out the way you thought it would when you were a kid? If not, is it better or worse?
No, but my life is better than when I was a kid. I was hoping by now to be rich and have a dozen Playboy models as girlfriends by now.

4. Paradoxes aside, if you could time-travel back to when you were 10 years old, what would you tell your 10-year-old self?
Buy some stock in Microsoft and Coca Cola.

5. Do you think the child you were, would like the adult you’ve become?
Probably since I am not like the adults that were around when I was a kid. I’m wacky!

Mood: undecided
