Message Board Celebrity Of The Day (Part II) - Shameless — Page 98

Congrats Jane2!

Enjoy your day.

I have come up with 10 questions. Here goes:

1. What are your 10 Favorite Movies of All Time?

2. What is the first book you read that made you openly weep?

3. If you were going to move to another country, which one would you choose…and why?

4. Who do you think are the 5 most physically stunning actresses of all time who are NO LONGER LIVING?

5. Who do you think are the 5 most physically stunning actors of all time who are NO LONGER LIVING?

6. What would be your “decorating” advice to someone setting up their first home (you know, like, after graduating from college...dorm rooms don't count)?

7. Since you like amusement parks, did you used to go to Palisades Amusement Park? (Or was that verboten because it was “the competition”?) What were your favorite amjusement park rides and games?

8. If you were a flower, which one would you be? Why?

9. If you were one of the Altar Boyz, which one would you be? Why?

10. What is your definition of an “ideal friend”?

No - this was what I posted:

My question: If someone who had never been to New York were visiting you for a day, what would you share with them and why?

(I always love hearing what others would do to share NYC! )

Miss P-what is this, the SATS? You're making me think hard! I kid-I'm loving it! Bring them on! Seriously, I may not be able to answer all yours but I'll try....

1. 10 favorite movies. Off the top of my head- and in no particular order:

1. Amadeus
2. Fellini's Roma
3. Fellini's Amarcord
4. Fassbinder's Berlin Alexanderplatz (all thirteen episodes)
5.The Godfathers I and II
6. Harold and Maude
7.The Rocky Horror Picture Show (for the impact it had on my life)
8.Angels in America ( HBO)
9. Eraserhead
10. Best In Show

there are many more films I love, these came to mind first.

2. First book that made me openly weep? I'm going to guess A Tale of Two Cities.

3. Move to another country? Hmmm, I don't travel, but I have been to London. I wouldn't want to move there. Most of my friends who have travelled say I would fit in very well in Paris, so I'll say France and the reason is because they said so.

4. Stunning actresses no longer living? Did Liz Taylor die yet? Oh, ok no. Let's see,
Marilyn Monroe, Greta Garbo,Vivienne Leigh, Liz Taylor.

5. Stunning dead actors-Steven Boyd, young Gary Cooper, James Dean, Lawrence Harvey, Bob Smith .

6.Decorating advice to someone setting up their first home? I'd advise them to call someone else.

7. Did I go to Palisades? you bet! My father had just bought me a Pontiac convertible-red. We all went to Palisades in it many times. I used to like the roller coasters in those days, and I just loved the pinball machines! p.s. I dream about that car almost all the time. In the dream, I can't stop the car without pressing o n the brakes with all my strength.

8. Which flower would I be? These days I'm liking the cyclamen look, I'll be one of those. Why? because they are intense in color, but no too ostentatious.

9. If I were one of the Altar Boyz, I'd probably be the Jewish one, Abe. He's not my favaorite one by a longshot, but I'm nothing like the other ones, except for Mark. I might even be more like a gay guy than a Jewish one, come to think of it. I'm changing my answer to Mark.

10. What is an ideal friend? that is one of the best questions I've ever heard. My answer-Let's keep in mind that no one person can be everything. My ideal friend would be someone who 1. supports me in what I do, want to do, even if they aren't interested in it. 2. Will tell me the truth when I ask for it. 3. Is there for me in bad times as well as good. 4. Doesn' t need to be asked for a favor. (like someone who will show up at the hospital without my asking them to come) 5. Doesn't stand on ceremony. 6. Is non judgmental. 7. will keep giving me a lot of money and candy.

Only kidding about number 7. partly.

DD- a tree, let's see. I don't know the names of too many trees, but there is one at the Brooklyn Botannic Garden and I'll describe it. the trunk consists of all those intertwining, bumpy branches. the outside looks sort of like a weeping willow. You can walk through the leaves and there's plenty of room under there to hang out around the trunk.

a romantic date? Well, if I'm in love with someone, it doesn't matter what we're doing because it's all romantic, but if we were to pick something special to do, I think an outdoor concert on a blanket is pretty romantic. also, being on the terrace of a penthouse apt. or restaurant, sipping champagne is very romantic.

Jane2 - great answers to great questions. Could I be your friend visiting NYC for the first time? That sounds like an awesome day. Of course, I have been in New York before but I've never had a friend that lived there to show me the city from that perspective. I'v always been a tourist but I'm an obsessed tourist.

Jane2, seeing as though you recently started posting after lurking for so long I think I'll ask a board related question: if you were a moderator of this board what would you change?

---

Hey, Bso, thanks hon!

Dottie-that's a hard one. I think the board is pretty well run, as this is not an easy job. you can NEVER please everyone, and I think most of the hundreds maybe thousands of members here, are generally pleased. There's another board we all know, which is heavily censored and I have plenty of problems with that one. But this board is a happy medium between that other theatre board and the Howard Stern board, which is the other end of the spectrum.

congrats!

Oh, almost missed this today! Congrats, Jane! Hope you're having a wonderful time today!
