Would you Rather?
Author. Actors don't need interviewing, they just go ahead and talk about themselves whether you've asked or not.Would you rather travel by tramp steamer or dirigible?
Dirigible, if for no other reason than it's fun to say.Would you rather stop reading a book that was suggested to you/given to you from a dear friend or continue plodding through it?

I would stop reading the book, however I would go to the Amazon site, read the customer reviews to get enough information to discuss the book with her so I wouldn't hurt her feelings.
Would you like to get up to go to a great early bird sale or would you rather you like to go outside with your book and coffee/tea and read while you listen to the morning doves coo?
drats, i'm split on this one - unless the early bird sale is for books, then I go with sitting outside and reading with my book and coffee.Would you rather be able to travel back in time or forward in time?
Back in time only if I knew what I know now and could take a few things with me. hahahahWould you rather be a writer or a painter?
I aspire to be a writer and if I could live my life over I'd do that rather than what I chose - a CPA. Painter, no.If you could rechoose your career, the one you have or one you dream of?
I would definately choose the career I dream of but then, wouldn't everyone?Would you rather visit Scotland or Ireland?

Ohh - tough one! I think I'd visit Scotland, but only because I have a friend there.
Would you rather visit a world of magic (wizards, unicorns, and elves - oh my!) or a high tech (ala steampunk) one?

A Magic world without a doubt!
Would you rather be able to see the future or read people's minds?
See the future! I don't think I want to know what most people are thinking.Would you rather have a fun, exciting life and die young or a boring, unfulfilling life but live long?
I'll take the fun, exciting, die young life.Would you rather be able to interview Carole Nelson Douglas or Carrie Vaughn?
Carole NElson Douglas - she is a lot of fun!WOuld you rather have a private jet or own a private island?
Private island. The idea of being able to sit out in the middle of the ocean, alone, is rather intoxicating. Tom Neal did exactly that a while ago. An Island to Oneself: Six Years on a Desert IslandWould you rather be rich or famous?
I'd rather live alone. I need a lot of personal space and living with 6 people is just too crowded.Would you rather not read anything for two weeks or not talk to anyone for two days?
Not talk to anyone for two days, definately. Then I could read to my hearts delight and not be interrupted.Would you rather be able to safely go swimming with sharks or safely go swimming with crocodiles?
Definitely go safely swimming with crocodiles. Sharks freak me out after having seen "Jaws".Listening to 90s music or 70s music?
70's music, that was my era...Would you rather renite with a lost love who had no interest in you or date a 75 year old man?
ReuniteWould you rather visit Hill House from The Haunting of Hill House or Rose Red from The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer: My Life at Rose Red?
I have had raw meat in a dish called raw dog, so I guess to provide a new experience I would rather eat a live beetle.Would you rather be stranded on an island with your least favorite book or stranded on the island with nothing to read?
I have to have a book, good or bad, where ever I go. So, I guess the answer is stranded on a desert island with my least favorite book. I would learn to like it and then I would memorize it!
Although I usually would go with the "cooler" climate with this choice I'd have to take the Canaries. The North Pole would be a little too bracing for me!
This is a no brainer for me - cheesecake - anywhere, anytime and any flavor ---Would you rather fly with the geese or burrow with the badger?
Sail on the Titanic, at least in that case there were SOME survivors.Would you rather ride a rhinoceros or ride a hippopotamus?
Definitely rhinoceros. Hippopotamuses are too ugly for my taste.Would you rather re-read the fairy-tales by Charles Perrault or Hans Christian Andersen?
A tough choice...I would choose Montalbano because we would dine in Sicily.Would you rather drink tea with Queen Antoinette or eat scones with Jane Austin?
I will drink tea with Queen Antoinette. Such gorgeous clothes to wear.Would you rather be part of the French Resistance or an SS soldier for Germany?
Viva la France I will join the Maquis.Would you rather be a Hollywood Star or write the great American novel.
Write the great American novel.Would you rather be next door neighbor to the Flintstones or the Jetsons?
I'd have to say the Jetsons, because they had cooler gadgets.Would you rather take a train or fly across the country?
I'd take the train,enjoying the changing geography,and the stop-overs to explore various cities.Would you rather own a pitbull or a poodle?
Weird...I check in this thread for the first time ever and this is the question I get. I already own a pit bull; I'll keep him.(He's a rescue pit from the shelter, and he's very sweet.)
Would you rather find out Shakespeare was actually Shakespeare, or that he was someone else?
I'd rather find out that he was someone else.Would you rather re-read your most disliked book or never be able to re-read your most loved book?
Re-read my most disliked book.Would you rather listen to one song for the rest of your life or never be able to listen to any kind of music for the rest of your life (not even the sing-song ringing of a bell)?
never be able to listen to any kind of music for the rest of my life, sadly. (Suprising even me, the musician here.)Would you rather love everyone and have everyone love you and be sick forever, or never love or be loved and never be sick?
Ha...AR, I avoided this question 'cause I had the same question. If I get to pick the song, I choose the former (and I pick Stevie Wonder's "I Wish"); if I don't get to pick, forget it. Weighed, most songs are bad.Good question by you. It'd be harder if the latter option were "And live forever" - or maybe it wouldn't, that sounds kinda horrible. I'll take the former, either way.
...shoot, I need a question now. I've been reading Paradise Lost all night, so: Serve in heaven, or reign in hell?
Serve in heaven. Would you rather have sweet or salty popcorn?Nothing but hard-hitting, life-changing questions with me :)
