What is good and what is evil?

There are many things in this world that could be considered good and many things that could be seen as evil. People will see things differently also. To a republican, a democrat could be perceived as evil and to a democrat, a republican can be seen as evil.

So what is evil to me? There is so much evil in this world that I don’t know if I can pick just one thing and discuss it.

So instead, I’ll talk about what is good.

Goldfish crackers are good on a stressful day. Relaxing with a book while munching on the crackers; or walking into your office and finding that someone has placed a fishbowl full of water with two little goldfish crackers swimming in it.

Close friends are a good thing. Sitting on a front stoop drinking beer just talking is even better.

Who is your personal role model?

Through out my life, there have been a few people with whom I would consider a personal role model.

For starters, my father. A kind gentleman and a brilliant man who instilled within me the many things I needed to know for life.

Now that I’m working in the White House, I look up to Leo McGary and the President.

What would constitute a "perfect" evening for you?

Sleep. Seriously, with how little sleep I’ve gotten during this administration, sleep is my idea of a perfect evening. Ask me again when I’m not sleep deprived.

If you could invent a holiday, what and when would it be? What special traditions would take place on that day?

National Gold Fish Cracker Day. Everyone would have to eat at least one bag of Gold Fish, and wear a Gold Fish pin or some other way of showing their support for the Gold Fish Cracker.

What's a typical day for you?

Let’s see, a typical day? Awaken at five, go to the gym for an hour of “CJ” time, than back to my apartment for a shower, change of clothes and breakfast before getting to work between 7:15 and 8:00.

The day is than spent in meetings and briefing the press.

If I’m lucky, I’ll get out of work around 8 where I can than go home, eat and relax for a bit before heading to bed.

What is the oddest gift you have been given?

Josh once told Danny that I like Gold Fish. Danny took him seriously and bought me Gail instead of a bag of Gold Fish.

If you could live anywhere, where would you and why?

I would move back to Dayton to spend as much time with my father as I could.

What's better: democracy or monarchy?

As much as I complain about democracy and the crap that goes on, we have more rights in a democracy that a monarchy.

What would your life be, if it were a movie? Comedy, horror, drama sci-fi? And who would play you?

My life would be a comedy and I do believe Allison Janney would play me.
