    MARTHA STEWART (November 2009)

    When and where were you happiest?: "Right now, in the present. I have a short memory."     Risko     What is your greatest fear? On what occasion do you lie? What do you dislike most about your appearance? These are just a few of the questions one might come across when filling out the Proust Questionnaire, a popular party game from the turn of the century (that's still fun to play today) made famous by French writer Marcel Proust, who believed that the way a person answered the questions revealed their true nature. I kind of agree.

    Create Your Own Proust Questionnaire

    Since 1993, Vanity Fair has been posing the questions to a different celebrity each month. Now, VF is releasing a new book, "Vanity Fair's Proust Questionnaire," which compiles the best answers from 101 of some of today's most prominent cultural figures, including Martha Stewart, Martin Scorsese, Aretha Franklin, Salman Rushdie ... the list goes on and on. Check out a few of the notable quotables:

    ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER (July 2003)

    The lowest depth of misery: "Did you read the reviews for 'Last Action Hero'?"     Risko

    BETTE MIDLER (August 2008)

    Which living person do you most despise?: "The Bluetooth-wearing S.U.V. driver who idles in front of my building."     Risko

    DAVID BOWIE (August 1998)

    What is your greatest fear?: "Converting kilometers to miles."     Risko

    I found a great dating site________ M i l l i o n a i r e C h a t s . c o m ________. The best dating club for seeking the rich singles, sexy beauties. what's the most important is that you don't have to be a millionaire, but you can meet one. Charlie Sheen found his true love on that site in 2007.
