Appetizer
Who is the easiest person for you to talk to?

Myself.

Soup
If you could live in any ancient city during the height of the quality of its society and culture, which one would you choose?

If I could also be a wealthy man, I'd choose Rome. They had plumbing.

Salad
What is the most exciting event you’ve ever witnessed?

We stood on the shore of Lake Michigan several years ago and watched a full solar eclipse. That was pretty amazing. Otherwise, I guess I'd have to say the birth of my son, though I was pretty mental when the actual event occurred!

Main Course
If you were a celebrity, what would you do for a publicity stunt?

Absobloodyfuckinglutely NOTHING. That in and of itself would be so unusual as to be a stunt, but that's not why I'd do it.

Dessert
What do you consider the ideal age to have a first child?

Somewhere between 25 and 33 seems reasonable. It depends a LOT on one's relative maturity and ability to provide for a child, much more than on one's chronological age.
