2. If you could sit Courtney Love down right now, what would you say to her?
1. What's the matter with you? You’re gonna lose the kid! 2. Do you have any, um, stuff? 3. Where's the bathroom? 4. Thanks.
3. As long as you get the sex and drugs, could you live without the rock and roll?
I live without the rock and roll all the time. I live for techno, house, electronic music. (I used to live for drum 'n bass but it turned into heavy metal without the hot guys with long hair and tight pants, so forget that). Rock and roll belongs in a nice museum somewhere. They should force the people who make it to become permanent exhibits at MOMA. I should also note that since all my "boyfriends" are gay, I also live without the sex, so all that’s left are the drugs.
Time travel question: What era, day or event in New York's history would you like to re-live?
I'd like to see Blondie in their heyday at CBGB's. Otherwise you can keep New York City, past, present, and future.
9pm, Wednesday - what are you doing?
At some place that passes for a "cool" club. Drinking the pain away. Trying desperately to figure out how I can write about it.
What's your New York motto?
Screw these people.
Who do you consider to be the greatest New Yorker of all-time?
New Yorkers suck. But if you put a gun to my head, I would nominate Debbie Harry because she's from New Jersey.
What was your best dining experience in NYC?
My fave restaurant in NYC is Lucien. I’ll eat there until I'm am [sic] so full you have to carry me away on a stretcher.
Just how much do you really love New York?
I don't. I like the drop-off laundry. That's it. And Lucien. I like my friends, it's such a shame they all live here though.
Of all the movies made about (or highly associated with) New York, what role would you have liked to be cast in?
As the snowstorm that detroys the city in The Day After Tommorrow [sic].
