One great thing about my job is that I get to meet a lot of people. On a trip to Canada I met Samantha from Karen Fosters. She is one of the funnest people you could ever meet because she has this little obsession with questions. That's right, questions. Sam has 14 pages of written questions that she keeps with her most of the time (they have the honey mustard stains to prove it). These aren't questions like where we came from or why we're here or any of those other deep things. These are fun questions to ask people so that you have more to talk about than the weather. I asked her to send me some of her favorites to post on our blog and she was kind enough to oblige.
We'd love to see your answers, so be sure to post.
What two bands/singers (one still playing together/alive and one not together/dead) would you like to come play at your b-day party (e.g. Aerosmith/Abba)?
If you could have dinner with one living famous man and one living famous woman who would they be (you all three have dinner together)?
If you could have dinner with one dead famous man and one dead famous women who would they be (they would not show up like something out of a horror movie...they would look normal!).
If you had the perfect mate and the rest of the world was either all male or all female, which would you choose (this is tougher than it seems...).
If you could have one superhero talent, what would it be (e.g. being invisible)?
If you could be one famous person for a day who would you be and what would you do?
If you could be one of our friends or family members for a day, who would you be and what would you do?

6) I would only want to be me, but if fame carries fortune with it, I would seek out people to help. The kind of people who need help (in any way), but don't ask for it. They seem to be the ones who truly need it. maybe like an extreme makeover home edition type thing.

1, Bill Elliott Orchestra with Erin McKeowen
2, Martha Stewart & Duff Goldman (from Food network)

5, do things really fast (is that a power?)
6, I'd be... no one drunk on tv or tabloids. Hmmm... I guess I'd like to be Liv Tyler. She's pretty, classy, down to earth, and appreciative to everyone and has positive attitude. I think I would just be her on her movie set or just a day see how she can be so positive and not jaded.
7, Your friends/family, hmm... I'd be your secretary, learn under you and be inspired and see what the process of making a line is like from start to finish to marketing.

If you could be one of our friends or family members for a day, who would you be and what would you do?

6. I would say Bill Gates or Warren Buffet so I could channel their monies to charity...but I think they have already gotten that covered. so assuming that with this change of person I would also be able to do things that would stick after my day I would probably be president and make a WHOLE lotta changes.

The Bee Gee’s/ Queen- maybe the original Jackson 5
Billy Crystal/ Meg Ryan- I might even have to have what there having
Howard Hughes / Natalie Wood
Of course Female. Could we do away a certain time of the month also? If that could happen I would probably be worshiped!

Stage fright just got to me! I have a heart for Africa so I guess I would also Oprah and I would visit the schools that she has set up as well as the everyday village schools.
7) One of YOUR family or friends - I would be whoever packs your paper. I could just inhale that smell all day long!! One of MY family or friends... hmm... probably my son so that I could just sit and stare in the mirror all day long making faces at myself and not have any cares of the world on my shoulders!
