I’m hosting today’s Fun Monday! Hope everyone enjoys it.
The Challenge:
I love the television show Inside the Actor’s Studio. As host, James Lipton interviews some of today’s most popular personalities (Tom Hanks, Dave Chappelle, Hugh Laurie, Queen Latifah, to name a few). The show has three parts. The first part consists of a one on one interview in front of a live audience (so much better than a dead one). The final part is a Q & A with audience members asking the questions.
The second part is my favorite and is also the Fun Monday challenge.
James Lipton presents the star ten questions:
- What is your favorite word?
Picalily. Go ahead, say it.
- What is your least favorite word?
Let’s just say it starts with a ‘c’.
- What turns you on (creatively, spiritually or emotionally)?
A really good book.
- What turns you off?
Bad breath, Lordy I just can’t stand that!
- What is your favorite curse word?
For my future (ok, someday) trip to the Dingle Peninsula: Pogue Mahone (or pog mo thoin) (To the residents of Dingle: Don’t worry I will primarily be saying this to my husband!) For more common usage: shit. It really can convey quite a bit.
- What sound or noise do you love?
Ebaby’s big ole belly laugh!
- What sound or noise do you hate?
The seal bark of a baby with croup.
- What profession, other than your own, would you like to attempt?
Book reviewer.
- What profession would you not like to attempt?
Teacher- I don’t have the patience to deal with a classroom full of kids.
- If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?
“Well done my good and faithful servant.”
My challenge to you is to answer these questions.

“Let’s just say it stars with a c”.
Oh lordy..yes…that’s another good one.
Great List!
I found your site through That Chick. I’m totally in!
A baby laughing is the best sound in the world! But, that croup cough is the most horrible! My oldest had that when she was about 2 and I hated it!
I love words with Ls in them – Lollapalooza!! Lillienthal, lilliputian
I also am participating in Fun Monday – but did not get around to rsvping – sorry!
Heh, heh!! I love to curse in Dingle. But that’s not the only reason I miss that place…
Man, I gotta get back to Ireland!!
That is a cool favorite word. Can I change my answer?
Picalily Picalily Picalily. Love it.
(Hope I spelled it right…)

Pog mo thoin was the first bit of Irish I learnt!
Can you believe how many of our answers were the same????
I found you through Mary. I enjoyed answering your questions, and reading your answers. Cheers!
your trip to Dingle caught my eye as I came over from mjd’s -actually that handle sounds quite good if you say it quickly- mjd’s. Yes I am familiar with Dingle and spent a number of years there and back…lived there for a year or so- know a lot of people there. One of my favourite pubs Fergus O’Flaherty’s – you could say I like the dirt of the place and the sessions at night: great stuff.
Make three wishes! Paddy
I love that part of the show!
