1. What do you want to be remembered for? I was there when my friends needed me.
2. If you were put in solitary confinement for a year, what would you do to stay sane? Read. A lot, and a wide variety.
3. If you could have video of any one event in your life, what event would you choose? There's a memory that stays with me: I'm 10 years old, stretched out on the grass in the backyard, reading a book called The Flying Nun: Miracle at San Tanco. I have no idea why this memory is so indelible. Maybe if I saw a video of it, including a few minutes before and after, I'd know.
4. What are the top 3 things you want to accomplish before you die? Have you accomplished them? Sorry, but I don't do the whole "bucket list" thing. I think it's morbid.
5. If you were forced to live one 10-minute block of your life again and again, what 10 minutes of your life would you choose. The bottom of the 10th inning, Game 7, World Series 2016.
6. Have you ever saved someone’s life? Nope.
7. What are you addicted to? Coke (caffeine).
8. What keeps you up at night? MAGA
9. What do you regret not doing? I'm sorry I didn't volunteer for Hillary Clinton in 2016. Oh, the damage and darkness we could have avoided!
10. What gives your life meaning? Doing good.
11. What are you most insecure about? My looks.
12. What’s the most illegal thing you’ve done? Back in the 1980s I indulged in cocaine, which was quite illegal.
13. What’s the most surprising self-realization you’ve had? Each time I fell in love, I was gobsmacked.
14. If you could make one rule that everyone had to follow, what would it be? Remember that Jesus said, "Whatever you do for the least of these brothers and sisters, you did for me." Maybe then some of us wouldn't be so determined to demonize the poor and the migrants. Or perhaps they could stop pronouncing themselves as Christian, even as they do the demonizing.
15. In what situation or place would you feel most out of place? A Trump rally.
