inside the actor's studio

i hadn't ever watched inside the actor's studio with james lipton until a little while ago. the only thing i knew about it was from the hilarious will ferrell sketch on SNL. so brilliant. i watched an episode tonight after being beat-tired from training at work...it was anthony lapaglia, the guy on without a trace. he's a really good actor, but i haven't seen any of his movies, although he's won a golden globe, an emmy AND a tony. rock and roll, that guy.
anywho, i've decided that i want james lipton to interview me. he always begins with a long drawn out history of the childhood with ridiculous rapid fire questions: asking his mother's name, father's name, elementary school, sport played, etc; all within the first three minutes. and then, he just piles on the compliments, complete with a usual dirty joke in the middle. he would say, "a talent of epic proportions, with inspiration that can move the masses to tears and then to elation," he would say. i would be humble, perhaps. i wouldn't cry-- not like oprah.
just talkin to a kinda creepy old guy. it's cool.

a side note that potentially sucks-- i start work every day at 6:30. holy. crap.
