1. Who is your favorite celebrity?
I don't know enough about any of them to have a favorite. In my generic ignorance, I'll say Leonard Nimoy. He's kept to a decades-long marriage, thus giving an appearance (to this casual observer) of maturity and integrity lacking in most of the rest of the Hollywood bunch. He also seems to invest rather than blowing money on wild parties. This is how little I know of any of 'em, really! Appalling, isn't it? (Or is it?)

2. Who is your least favorite?
Can I stretch the definition of celebrity? Fred Phelps.

3. Have you ever met or seen any celebrities in real life?
I don't think celebrities exist in real life. Their entire universe is in a whole different dimension. That said, if I can stretch the definition of celebrity again, I did stand in line behind a shuttle astronaut in a cafeteria once. I was awed. THAT GUY had been in SPACE. And here he was, back on Earth, clad in street clothes and breathing atmosphere, in a rather bad cafeteria.

4. Would you want to be famous? Why or why not?
No. I get enough attention-that's-not-about-me-at-all-but-really-about-the-other-person as it is.

5. If you had to trade places with a celebrity for a day, who would you choose and why?
An astronaut on a mission. I cannot possibly answer why -- either you already understand, or I won't be able to convey it.

If I can't have that, how about whatsisname who played Han Solo? He's a fine pilot and he has some cool planes. At least one copter, too, which he uses to rescue unprepared stranded hikers in the Jackson, WY area.

Harrison Ford. He's gonna be here in Dayton in July for part of the Centennial of Flight celebrations. 3rd week in July, i believe.

Yeah, him! Apparently he's a decent guy. I'll miss the Centennial of Flight -- I'll be in Germany. Or Scotland. One of those two, I don't know which for sure. Somewhere far away.

Sounds a bit like my number 5 though I through in the "if anyone got in my way watch out".
