INTERVIEW WITH A BLOGGER


Yiddishe Mamme was kind enough to Interview me!
Thanks for the interesting questions YM.
If anybody wishes to be interviewed by me, just leave a note.

Yiddishe Mamme's questions:

1) Name 10 of your favorite songs (you're not gonna complain that it's too many right? I mean, for a music lover like you, 10 faves is a joke!)
2) What's your idea of 'having a blast!'
3) Do you think blogs are more beneficial or detrimental?
4) If you could be one person for a day, who would you be?
5) How good are you at table tennis and are you up for a little friendly competition one day?

Hmm tough one, I rarely have a blast.
I’m plenty happy with a board game, a good video or a nice walk.
I don’t attend, nor am invited to many parties and the like.
But one thing that is very exhilarating to me is being proven right.
So lately I advised an acquaintance to take a certain route but he chose to ignore my advice, ended up calling me from his cell since he was caught in an unbelievable traffic. It’s petty I know. It just feels REALLY good.
The latest real blast I had was last winter at DISNEYWORLD Florida!!
Boy! did I enjoy playing around with those fast-passes!

You probably can guess the answer to that one.
It’s not black and white. Many blogs I read, have constructive content, intelligent articles or interesting information.
I see these blogs as enriching to my surfing experience.
On the other hand it pretty much gives a voice to every creepy, scheming evil person knowing his way around the net.
Overall I would label the blogsphere beneficial. Every instrument can be used for good or evil. The unfortunate choice some people make to use basically good stuff for devilish purposes is no reason to spoil it for everybody.

This may sound crazy, but I’d choose to be someone living during Avraham Avinu’s timeline. Perhaps with the knowledge I have I could prevent his union with Hagar and who knows…
In a more contemporary vein, I’d like to freaky-friday with my boss. The glee in simply thinking about the possibilities is priceless.

5)
Oh I’m up for a friendly game of ping pong.
As a kid we had a table at home.
It served as dinner table when we were barbequing, but was used a lot on Sundays and late Fridays for its’ actual purpose.
Let’s just say I had plenty of practice until a couple of years ago.
I still enjoy a pleasant game of table tennis when I get a chance.
The question now, is whether we live close enough to each other to make a match a reality.
