Become a performance poet and am about to have a book published.
Do you believe in smacking children?
I really don't like it, but some children only respond to a spanking once in a great while. I DO NOT believe in malicious hitting when you're angry. I was abused as a child myself. ... I'll get off my soap box now!
Would you consider yourself a racist, even a little bit?
Ummm well I guess i am racist in that I have never been attracted to somebody who wasn't caucasian... it's not that i have a problem with mixed race relationships... just i don't find black men attractive... kinda like some women sleep with women. I could never do it... but i don't mind if they do
Does political correctness irritate you?
Good answer. I like honest.
Yes! Doesn't it irritate you? It just seems it's gone too far. I wouldn't want to intentionally offend anyone, but walking on egg-shells is not my style.
If you could change places with anyone, who would it be?
Well, for a day, a rich, young and beautiful woman, just to see how it feels. Or a rich, young and beautiful man, ditto. Permanently? Can't think of anyone whose life is much better than mine (which is a useful thing to think).
Who would you change places with?
For just a day I might like to try being any number of people - like a star on broadway or someone completely different from myself living somewhere else..maybe, like you, Clary!? But I couldn't give up being who I am either. I am a sum of my own experiences...
Do you believe in the Bible? Why or why not? If not, what book (or something else) do you hold in that regard?
I don't believe in the bible because I've never known a journalist sitting with a pen and pad to get a story right, so it doesn't make sense to me that the chinese whispers of generations ago would be any more reliable. I don't hold any book in high regard where religion is concerned.
Can you balance on one foot more than the other?
Not that I'm aware of... although i automatically try on my right foot if i'm asked to "stand one one leg"... my balance is pretty appalling anyway though!!
Do you believe in love?
Oh yes.
Can you love more than one person?
Romantically, not really, but I have plenty for my husband, kids, friends.

What's your ideal meal?
Wow. If I could have my 'd'ruthers, I'd love a meal at a European restaurant here that is no more:
Lobster bisque, osso bucco, raspberryvascherine (sp?) for dessert (sp?), and all the appropriate alcohol to go with - it was great!
What's yours?
I'll settle for meat pies and mashed potatoes.
How often do you go out to restaurants?
about twice a week, I should think - never thought about it!

Playing with Boston, my little grandson
