The Interview Meme - Optional.
Jun. 10th, 2003 12:43 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png){kind=small}
reynardoIt's an interview. Simply, at the end of this you leave a comment of "Interview me" and I shall ask you 5 questions for you to take back to your own journal and answer as a post. Of course, they'll be different for each person since this is an interview and not a general survey.
At the bottom of your post, after answering the Interviewer's questions, you ask if anyone wants to be interviewed. So it becomes your turn -- in the comments, you ask them any questions you have for them to take back to their journals and answer. And so it becomes the circle.
Be warned, however, that I've been watching a rather good interviewer lately who has not shied from the tough questions (So, did you have any idea he was going to cut the rope and let you drop to your death at that moment?) so I may ask some curly ones.
