Me vs. My Character


What is the oddest thing you would find in your closet?
DAM: A pair of big, black, '80's balloon pants, which I occasionally wear with a black tie as a joke.
EDMUND: A cat-o'-nine tails. The Marquis de Sade had a lot of them.

What's your favorite guilty pleasure?
DAM: Baby talk. My wife would be crushed if she saw that in print, but we'll just have to cross that bridge when we come to it.
EDMUND: Listening to the Captain and Tennille.

What song would you be most likely to belt out during Karaoke?
DAM: "Mack the Knife."
EDMUND: If Edmund got enough liquor in him, "Copacabana" by Barry Manilow.

What advice would you offer your alter ego?
DAM: Get over yourself.
EDMUND: Embrace elitism!

What book are you currently reading?
DAM: "The Last Avant-Garde: The Making of A New York School Poet", by David Leeman, a friend of my wife's.
EDMUND: Edmund is reading the book to a musical--"How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying."
