(1) The singular boring question: There are no boring questions.
(2) If you had been born a member of the opposite sex, what would your name have been?: Donald.
(3) Would you name a child of yours after you?: No.
(4) If you had to switch first names with a friend of yours, who would you switch with?: I'd be Andie.
(5) What's the way people most often mispronounce any part of your name?: My last name. Or they call me Dawn. Grrr.
(6) If you were to become famous, would you drop your last name (like Madonna, Cher, Roseanne)?: Just PBG, please. *preens*
DEEP THEOLOGICAL QUESTIONS
(7) Do you believe in the traditional view of Heaven and Hell?: No.
(8) Do you think God has a gender?: No.
(9) Do you think science counteracts religion?: No.
(10) Do you believe in organized religion?: No. Organized religion is the opiate of the masses, as has been elucidated recently.
(11) Where do you think we go when we die?: We become part of the great chain of being, and worms eat us.
(12) Do you feel a little funny thinking about the questions in this section?: Not really. I know where I stand.
HUMOUR

(15) Do you laugh at jokes you know you shouldn't?: Unfortunately, yes.
(16) Do you tell jokes you know you shouldn't?: No.
(17) What words instantly make you laugh or at least smile?: For some reason, teenage girls like to say strange words, then laugh like lunatics at their own wit.
