Boobs asked:
If you could interview one person (dead or alive) who would it be and what questions would you want them to answer? This answer has popped up before but it'd have to be Jesus Christ. I am not really a devoutly religious person despite growing up in protestant churches in the south, but the story fascinates me. I'd love to know what he really had in mind. I'd ask how he feels about the things that are done in "his name". I'd also ask, "Why can't I go to a shopping mall without a stranger coming up to me, throwing your name out and then asking me if I am prepared to go to hell", and most importantly, I'd ask, "Let's say that at the end of the spiritual path I don't go with your religion. What would you suggest next?"
KelRel asked:
Which is your favorite book in the HP series and why? As of right now it is "Prisoner of Azkiban". However, I am going through a discussion of "Half Blood Prince" here on BroadwayWorld and it's quickly gaining steam.
I name PoA, because I think it's the best standalone book in the series. I love the introduction of Sirius Black and how it reminds us constantly that things may not be what the seem. I also feel like this is the first book that didn't feel like a children's book and it just flows very well.
Not to mention that Snape has the best line in the entire series so far:
"That is the second time you have spoken out of turn, Miss Granger," said Snape coolly. "Five more points from Gryffindor for being an insufferable know-it-all."
If you could be any character from them who would it be and why? Wow, that's a tough one. I have to say that it would probably be Snape. That is subject to change assuming how Book 7 finishes up the series, but I am in the camp of people who do not believe Snape is evil and in fact will play a very large roll (possibly even giving his own life) to save Harry Potter and bring down the Dark Lord.
If you could have any one wish granted what would it be? I hope this isn't too broad of an answer, but I'd wish that everyone that I love and care about in this world would be taken care of. In particular, my parents have fallen on some rough times in the past couple of years and my dad has that "southern macho pride" thing going on and refuses to let me help financially, so I'd just wish that the people I call family and friends would never have to want for anything. I'd like to think that I choose my friends wisely and that if all of my loved ones were taken care of, they'd take care of me too.
shameless asked:
What has given you the most (non-sexual and non-criminal) pleasure in the last year? Making some new friends. Since I joined BWW last July, I've had the opportunity to make some great friends. In particular smartpenguin78 and yodamarie78. I am not a big social person in real world and my wife and I tend to stay in more than we go out. I can count people that I call real friends on my fingers and sp78 and ym78 are two of the best in that category. I'd say that would easily be a great pleasure is making two best friends.
If you could be anyone you wanted to be today, who would you be, and what would you do? Bono. It's rare that we get someone who sings on stage whether it be in a rock band or a broadway show and entertains people but also makes a difference in the world. I'd probably put on an all night concert in Africa with 100% of the proceeds going to AIDS relief in Africa. And hell, since I am Bono I guess I'd have his bank account so I might as well match all the proceeds dollar for dollar.
If we asked an important person in your life to describe you, what would he or she say? How accurate would it be? Wow, that's tough. I think they'd say that Stephen is a bit obsessional and very passionate. He's quick on the wit and a bit silly. Sometimes he can be a little difficult to get along with and he has the southern temper. However, at the end of the day he is a giver and a really nice guy.
I think it'd be more or less accurate.
What’s something that you’ve never done, but have always wanted to try? Horseback riding.
