Favorite person to follow?

Conan O’Brien because he can say the funniest things in two lines.

Why did you start Tweeting?

Just to keep in touch with our viewers and my friends. It’s also turned out to be an excellent source for breaking news and strange news stories which I use on my ‘News of the Weird!’

What do you never Tweet about?

My bald spot.

What Tweet has generated the most response?

‘What’s for dinner tonight?’

What is the strangest place you've Tweeted from?

A couple of miles off the coast of Point Loma, San Diego, when I almost got run over by an aircraft carrier while Ruth, my granddaughter, and I were sailing in my boat, Airtime. I Tweeted pictures of the Coast Guard boat with the man on the gun, and the aircraft carrier, the USS John C. Stennis.

How do you choose who you follow?

Some people ask me to follow them and most times I do. I also follow people from a variety of backgrounds—mostly media, entertainment and PR people.

iPhone or BlackBerry?

Blackberry.
