Wednesday Wickedness

(Link in meme-roll)
Today we picked Prince William

1. “I've had lots of kids come up and ask for my autograph, I've had a grandmother stop me and ask me if I know a good place to buy underwear.” Where do you buy your underwear?
No place where I'm ever asked for an autograph--just [occasionally] a signature.
2. “I'm always open for people saying I'm wrong because most of the time I am.” How often are you wrong?
Yeah, I have a teenager in the house: you do the math on this one!
3. “Harry can paint but I can't. He has our father's talent while I, on the other hand, am about the biggest idiot on a piece of canvas. I did do a couple of drawings at Eton which were put on display. Teachers thought they were examples of modern art, but in fact, I was just trying to paint a house!” What was the last thing that you drew?
If it counts, I colored in the circles in the letters on the typed agenda today. I don't actually draw 'representational' art either. Me 'n the Billster: tight buds.
4. “I do think I am a country boy at heart. I love the buzz of towns and going out with friends and sitting with them drinking and whatever -- it's fun -- but, at the same time, I like space and freedom.” How would you describe yourself?
"Thank God I'm a country [girl]!" {eyeroll} I am a suburbanite, through and through.
5. “I remember her as being a huge inspiration to me, someone to really look up to and admire.” He’s talking about his mom. Who do you admire?
Imagine if he were talking about Camilla! I'd have to kill him. I admire people who know how to keep their mouths shut when everyone around them is clamoring for them to say something.
6. “I think it's very important that you make your own decision about what you are. Therefore you're responsible for your actions, so you don't blame other people.” How do you think you are about taking responsibility for your actions?
Pretty good, mostly. But then I'm also a really good liar.
7. “My guiding principles in life are to be honest, genuine, thoughtful and caring.” What are your guiding principles?
"To serve God, my country, and [hu]mankind, and to live by the Girl Scout Law." OK, really: "That which is hateful to you, do not do to your fellow." (Hillel)
8. “Only the mad girls chase me, I think.” When you were, or if you are, single: What type of people chased you?
No clue. I have amnesia about most of that period.
9. “I don't deliberately select my friends because of their background. If I enjoy someone's company, then that's all that counts. I have many different friends who aren't from the same background as me and we get on really well -- it's brilliant.” How do you select your friends?
I don't. They select me!!
10. “People say it's not ambitious, but it is actually quite ambitious wanting to help people.” When was the last time that you volunteered to help people?
Today. It is (part of) my job.
