1. What is your favorite “Friends” episode?
I don’t recall the exact name of the episode, so I will call it – “The one where Monica explains to Chandler how to please a woman.”
1-1-4-5-7-7-7-7-SEVEN!
2. Who would be in your historical threesome?
Lillian Hellman and Ingrid Bergman! (I don’t really know. Full disclosure, I have had this question to ponder for nearly a week and the list is ever changing.)
3. What foods have you forced yourself to eat this year that you usually don’t eat?
I have begun to eat a salad regularly, almost every single day. I didn’t used to be a huge “raw” food eater but have now come around to the point of craving a good green, leafy salad.
4. Given the opportunity and a clear shot, what would you most like to steal?
The code to weekly lottery so I can assure my self a weekly winner? Or maybe a nice Ferrari or Maserati. Now, having said that, every time I see one (and in Denver that isn’t so rare.) I will look at the car and ponder – “Hmmmm. I could take it.”
5. In life, we make choices. What have you chickened out of doing?
Going to law school. I would have loved to study the law. I don’t think I would be that great of a trial attorney, but I know I would have loved immersing myself in the philosophy and history of law.
1. I didn’t watch friends enough to know, but my favorite Seinfeld episode was when he and Willis were conned into taking nude photos by the neighborhood bike peddler, Mr. Gordon Jump.
2. Carey Grant and Rudolph Valentino. My computer screen just burst into flames.
3. More soy products, probably. And definitely more fresh fruit. Gotta keep the pipes clean!
4. I agree with Roy on the lotto number scheme. Although I would be tempted to steal a time machine. Because there’s so many lying around, just not getting used. Travesty.
5. While it doesn’t fit into the category of ‘chickened out’, I missed the chance to hang out drinking in a dingy hotel room with Hunter S. Thompson and another old author coot in December 1996 because I was driving a U-Haul with my parents to Denver for my move here. I’ll always regret that.
!) I’ve only watched them out of order in syndication & they all kinda run together. I always laugh at/with Phoebe, if that helps.
@) I guess since I’m a music fan, I’d say Beethoven & Kurt Cobain. Was Beethoven attractive?
#) I had cilantro a couple of weekends ago & didn’t gag &/or wretch. I was proud but, I wouldn’t force myself to eat that most heinous of perfumed devil weed.
$) I’d find some way of acquiring enough money in a manner I couldn’t be prosecuted for so that I could buy a house & return to school for at least 6 years.
%) Staying in Los Angeles. Some of the people were awful but, there were more opportunities there & a life that was a little more my own.
1. The episode entitled, “The One Where Ross Got High” (Season 6, Episode 9),
It’s the one where Rachel makes the English Trifle for dessert, but accidentally confuses the recipe with a Shepard’s pie. Another is the one with Brad Pitt, (Season 8, Episode 9 “The One With The Rumor”), just for the sheer comedy of watching the married couple in action.
2. Very, very tough question (and it was *my* question). I’ll go with Audrey Hepburn and a young Burt Reynolds (I know—tough one to defend. . .. .but I’m guessing in his prime, he was a tiger).
3. I know this doesnÂ’t answer the question precisely (and I’m a pretty adventurous eater in general), but in the past year or so, IÂ’ve gotten in the habit of skipping dinner many times a week (a matter of when I get home at night, as well as saving up “beer calories”).
4. The remote control that Cheney uses to control Bush.
5. The list is too long to even begin here. LetÂ’s just say I have a lot of regrets that can be traced back to timidity.

1. It’s been so long since I watched Friends, all the episodes blur together in memory.
2. Hmm, I’d have to go with Cleopatra and Zorro .
3. Perhaps more fruit and “whole grain” cereals (read: tastes like wet cardboard).
4. I, too, would go for a prescient knowledge of the winning lotto numbers.
5. I chickened out of applying for a Fulbright scholarship to study abroad for a year.
1. the one where one of them was fucking another one of them, but no one knew about it, leading to wacky and hilarious situations. oh wait…that was all of them.
