Q1: How has the advent of the Internet changed the way you get your daily news?

I have all the news i want at my fingertips. i get into the office and can check the news right away...and not get all smudgy from newsprint. it's also so much more up-to-date than newspapers.


Q2: When you were younger, what were some things you dreamed about doing, and that you still think are possible to do today, but that you just haven't gotten around to doing or experiencing yet?

I've always wanted to write a bestseller. i believe it WILL happen....i just don't know when!

Q3: If you were forced to live on a deserted island for one year, what five things--aside from specific items of clothing--that you'd choose to bring?

chapstick, tampons, matches, swiss army knife, paper and pen (i'm counting this as one...)

Q4: Did any notable or high-profile person's death in 2004 have a dramatic or long-lasting affect on you? (Here's a short list of some of the more notable people who died in 2004: Jack Paar, Marge Schott, Sir Peter Ustinov, Alistair Cooke, Tug McGraw, Pat Tillman, Estee Lauder, Alan King, David Dellinger, Sam Dash, Tony Randall, President Ronald Reagan, Ray Charles, Marlon Brando, Isabel Sanford, Rick James, Fay Wray, Julia Child, Geoffrey Beene, Red Adair, Richard Avedon, Janet Leigh, Rodney Dangerfield, Ken Caminiti, Christopher Reeve, Pierre Salinger, Yasser Arafat, Susan Sontag, Reggie White, Jerry Orbach, Johnny Ramone.)

I am deeply saddened by the loss of Marlon Brando (the godfather and Stanley Kowalski...he is all good in my books!), Christopher Reeve (it's awfully sad to lose Superman), and Jerry Orbach (he was, after all, Dr. Houseman and i will love him forever for that!)
