Questionnaire.

[jordox]

Thought I'd put out a nice little questionnaire. which Bernard Pivot manufactured and is featured in the program "inside the actors studio". The questions give a fair bit of insight into people as individuals.

Note: One has been excluded, because it was "What is your favorite curse word", so obviously that won't work here, what with the rules and the censor.

Here they are:

1 What is your favorite word?
2 What is your least favorite word?
3 What turns you on creatively, spiritually or emotionally?
4 What turns you off creatively, spiritually or emotionally?
5 What sound or noise do you love?
6 What sound or noise do you hate?
7 What profession, other than your own, would you like to attempt?
8 What profession would you not like to attempt
9 If heaven exists, what would you like to hear the higher power say when you arrive at the pearly gates?

I'll post my answers a bit later.

[King Pietersen]

1 What is your favorite word? Knobhead
2 What is your least favorite word? Serendipity
3 What turns you on creatively, spiritually or emotionally? Tom's Mum.
4 What turns you off creatively, spiritually or emotionally? Dullness, be it a dull person, a dull task, just general dullness annoys me.
5 What sound or noise do you love? Erm, there isnt really one that I love. There are nice noises, like ones you hear in the park, like bird noises an that. But with those bird noises come stress, I was in there the other day and er, as I say, little bird noises an that, an a little robin was there and I thought 'thats odd, out early' cause it's still summer time 'an that. I thought, that's nice, and I was watchin it, and it got like a little worm right, and I was like "eh, put it down". It was a nice sunny day and I thought 'worms normally come out when it's rainin' don't they, and I bet they're happy to die, cause it's rainin and it's miserable, and they hear the rain fallin on the ground an they go 'what's goin on?' and come up to see what's happenin. Their hearing like knockin on their land, and wondering 'who's that?' so they come up. You hear that blind people have really good ears, and it's the same with a worm. If you use something alot you get better at it, and that's happenin with the worm. It comes up to the top and goes 'what's goin on?'. It goes up and sees its rainin, so goes back down again.
6 What sound or noise do you hate? As me or as a worm?
7 What profession, other than your own, would you like to attempt? As me this time, not Pilkers, I'd genuinely love to be Kevin Pietersen for a few weeks. Just to be able to hit the ball like he does, to have the talent he does and just know what it feels like to score a Test hundred. Would be awesome.
8 What profession would you not like to attempt? Public Toilet cleaner
9 If heaven exists, what would you like to hear the higher power say when you arrive at the pearly gates? There isn't a god.

I've been working on the Saffa accent, getting pretty good at it. Just need to get the Skunk haircut and the tattoo's, then marry someone called Jessica, and I'll be basically there. Then it'll just be a matter of stealing KP's talent somehow. It can be done.

.... me dead if I thought that my obsession with Gilchrist was bigger than yours with KP.

It's insane. Have you met the bloke yet?

 

[Highlander999]

Met him? He has a tattoo of KP's face over his own face

I'm surprised he hasn't got one of KP on his back ala Steve-O from Jackass.

ROFL, now that's an idea right there! I'm heading to my local tattoo shop!

Sean, no, I've not met him. I will eventually though, probably when we're batting together for England, KP at 3, Manley at 4, Baker at 5, Bell at 6. Looks one heck of a batting line-up if you ask me!
