Joel Stein Q-and-A

SteinThe LAT columnist who desires very badly to work in Hollywood answers questions from A. J. Daulerio at The Black Table. Here's a sample.

Q: So, do you think it's tough being a 30-something humor writer whose humor only appeals to suburban mothers over the age of 50?

A: I wish. At least they're legal. I write at a 15-year-old reading level. Few of my readers have graduated high school yet.

Q: Anyway, would you rather stab Dave Barry in the neck 16 times with a plastic fork until he has a seizure or stomp a nest full of baby rabbits with your bare feet?

A: Stomping baby rabbits? That sounds awesome. Like soft and warm at the same time. Stabbing Dave Barry just sounds boring. Just kidding!
