La Questionnaire

I'm a fan of "Inside the Actors Studio" for many reasons. People are interesting to me and it's one of the only classroom type situations where professionals talk about what they do for a living and how they do it. I've recently discovered that TED talks do the same thing for me but in a different way.

One of the things I really enjoy is the adaptation of Marcel Proust's questionnaire that is asked at the end of each episode. I'm a fan of Proust and have one of his quotes up in my house.

"The voyage of discovery is not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes."

This is the adapted version with my answers. I feel this need to remind myself and you of who I am.
