the james lipton meme

I'm going meme crazy lately, so this time around I'm not tagging anybody, but if you decide to do it, let me know.

So here are the rules.
1. Copy the questions and provide your own answers in your own blog.
2. Tag as many or as few people as you like.
3. Report back here to the comments and let me know that you answered so that we all might be edified.
4. If you don't have a blog of your own, just leave your answers in the comments.
