Inside the Blogger's Studio

First, I want to send special messages to two people.
Nick, who is celebrating the two year anniversary of his extremely funny blog today. Woohoo! He also made me his featured blogger for finding his coveted Union Jack cup on the internet. Thanks Nick!
And Neil, who mentions me in his blog today....even if it is through his parents. It's a riot. Thanks Neil!

So, I asked the fabulously handsome and talented Todd to interview me. I will answer the questions shortly, but first, I am contractually obligated to explain the rules to this inquisitive round-robin. I am copying and pasting this directly from Todd, otherwise known as yournamehere and viva las vegASS, because I am lazy.

Here are the instructions:

1. If you want to participate, leave a comment below saying "Interview me." "Blow me" or "Eat me" are not acceptable substitutes.
2. I will respond by asking you five questions - each person's will be different. I'll post the questions in the comments section of this post.
3. You will update your blog with the answers to the questions.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview others in the same post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.

Here are Todd's questions for me.

1. I know you're a trained chef, so what is your favorite dish to prepare and why? It would have to be soup. I have actually been written up in the newspaper for my soupmaking prowess - and was dubbed alternately "The Soup Queen" and "The Soup Nazi", by customers and coworkers alike. Which name was used for me depended on my level of bitchiness for that particular day. There are people in Jersey who would buy me an automobile for one quart of my Cream of Tomato. Point of interest: soup was invented to get rid of leftovers.

2. If you had to live as a man for an entire week, would you give your penis a name? If so, what? No, that is just creepy. Why do men do that?

3. Explain in detail your favorite aspect of blogging. I love the creative outlet of blogging. I have always loved writing, and I feel like this is not only a great forum to sharpen my skills, but to get almost immediate feedback from people who are not friends and family. (ie: people who would not insult my stuff for fear of hurting my feelings) I am also really enjoying the interaction between bloggers, which has been an unexpected and happy surprise. So many cool, interesting, and inspiring bloggers out there!

OK fine. It's all about the neocounter.

4. Which "Seinfeld" character do you most relate to and why? I think the Seinfeld characters are possibly the most obnoxious ever created for television, with the exception of Frank *Ferret Face* Burns. At first I thought Elaine, being that she is a girl, of course. But Elaine whines too much. She is also a world-class bitch. I'm a bitch too, but not a world-class one. And her dancing is tragic. Kramer is a sponge and a general nuisance, I don't like those qualities in people. He also has bad hair and hangs out with Newman. Ick. George is a jackass, and let's face it, he has really bad hair. If I had to be alone for ten minutes with George I'd kill him. That leaves Jerry. Jerry is funny, entertaining, and is always the center of what is happening. Plus he's rich. I can relate to that even if I am - economically - at the bottom of the food chain.

5. If you're ever in Vegas can I pretend I'm with you so they'll let me in the really nice clubs? You bet! Have cleavage, will travel.

Thanks Todd! You are genius!
