46. What is your favorite TV show? The recently-defunct Charmed, because I want paranormal powers. And a lot of hot guest stars.

3. Who on your MySpace “Top 8” do you talk to the most? Huh? I don't do MySpace.
Sadly, there are those whose internet world begins and ends with MySpace. It's deeply worrying because MySpace represents the cold dead corpse of the Big Corporation Zombie trying to rise from the grave and walk among us.
And it grieves me to say that News Corp's head honcho, the Machiavellian Rupert Murdoch, now an ersatz American citizen, was once an Australian.
Shun MySpace, people. It is the Evil of an internet future we really don't want to see...

Re: Number 3
I got peer pressured into MySpace. Now instead of having friends who are fond and lonely memories to dredge up over a pint, I have fifty people annoying the shit out of me every damn day with one stupid inspirational kitten message after another.
You made the right choice.

I'm laughing at #42 right now, because I woke up this morning with stretched out arms and crossed legs. I looked like I was being crucified.

Jill, darling, I may be seeing someone at the moment, but I have a large house in a sub-tropical clime that will always have room for a writer to visit when she needs to get away for a few days. The room comes with a slightly occluded view of two koi ponds, complete with koi, water lilies, and frogs, who sing with resounding basso profundo voices in the Spring. There is a Magic Fingers installed on the bed, but you must supply your own loose change. There are plenty of strange books, some obscure and some absurd strewn carelessly about the poorly kept house, but any visitor is welcome to peruse them at leisure. And, of course, a faithful companion will dog your steps, if you'll pardon the pun, and her heart is easily won with just a small portion of whatever you happen to be eating at the moment.
Just call before you arrive.

Just for the record I don't find #32 hot either - that will be good news to my wife no doubt....
Some of those questions....
Now I thought "Fuck a duck" was an English expression - one loved of the "old guys" in the corner of the pub who bemoan what happen to "souff (south) London)". I love it that it's not and is multi-cultural. I will reinstate it's place in my vocabulary instantly.
Well fuck a duck

I suspect this list of questions was written by a guy who has the hots for you. He's covered in tattoos. His flat doesn't have a bed so you'd have to make out on the floor.
I'm too scared to imagine what part of his anatomy smells of cottage cheese. Yuck.
