>>Paul : It is actually a trick for interviews. If someone asks you a boring question, just answer the interesting one they might have asked, and nobody complains.<<

That's classic...

An example of how to actually live "your" own life in this world...not paying a great deal of attention to uninteresting things that others bring up; rather molding those same things so that they become interesting, and illuminate parts of your life and the lives of others...

In my estimation, my life is what it is--one I'm very happy with--because of my having just that attitude...

And, yes, I totally agree:
