    YES

    Do you avidly follow horoscopes?

    (Would have been interesting, though)

    Which 5 books would you take with you on a deserted island?

    It's actually tasteless--like my sense of humor.

    Well, probably the Dostoyevsky novels we were discussing because they were meant to be read over and over, and since there is always something new to learn from them. For the fifth one, it's a cliche (but then so is the question), but probably Tolstoy's War and Peace for the same reasons.

    What five islands would you take a book to?

    If you could take ten books to only one prison, which prison would it be?

    Its/it's. I know the difference, but the corrective/predictive artificial stupidity (AS) on my IPad doesn't.

    Hmmm, that's a challenging one. Okay, if you could have dinner with anyone from all history, what would you order for desert?

    Ice cream, probably.

    Well, the old joke answer is that you would only need one: Elementary Shipbuilding. But okay, in addition to the five novels I mentioned earlier, I would take Journey to the West, the Bible, Tom Jones, Vanity Fair, and (if it's not cheating) the Complete Works of Shakespeare. But no Dickens. He's great but way too judgmental to take to a deserted island. I'd hang myself from the coconut tree on the first day.

    Would you rather read a Stephen King novel or be eaten by a bear?

    Well, I would hope reading the Stephen King novel was less damaging.

    Which are your 10 favourite orchestral works in Classical music?
