I'm a sucker for a questionnaire. The one from Inside the Actor's Studio (Proust) is my favorite but Vanity Fair has a good one too. Then I spotted this one in Fast Company, one of my favorite magazines.
As it's currently 83 degrees and humid a.f. outside, I'm phoning this post in with a questionnaire. Please play along...
