Inside the Actors Studio is the Emmy-nominated and longest running original series on the Bravo cable television. The show is seen by 79 million American homes and is in 125 countries. Most of the show is a one-on-one interview with the guest and the host, James Lipton. At the end of the interiew, James Lipton follows it up with a set of 10 questions; a concept that originated by French television personality Bernard Pivot.

Let me know what your responses are to these 10 questions (copy and paste the questions to your reply):

1) What is your favorite word?

2) What is your least favorite word?

3) What turns you on creatively, spiritually or emotionally?

4) What turns you off creatively, spiritually or emotionally?

5)What sound or noise do you love?

6) What sound or noise do you hate?

7) What is your favorite curse word?

8) What profession other than your own would you like to attempt?

9) What profession would you not like to do?

10 If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?

Oh no! I never realized anyone took those questions seriously. I always assumed James Lipton was a joke that we were all in on. You know, like William Hung, Flavor Flav, or Sarah Palin. Those might be the worst questions for an interview I've ever heard. I can learn more from reading a teenager's myspace survey than I can from that.

Sorry Alex, I promise to be nicer from now on. It's just that deep down inside, I'm just a hurt little man who picks on others to feel better about himself.

Bernard Pivot....Bahahahhahah
