Teddy Kennedy was asked that question way back in 1979, and blew the answer so spectacularly that it still stands today - over 30 years later - as an example of how *not* to reply to a question.
He can be forgiven, I think. How many of us can answer this question: What are you really passionate about? In preparation for that question, I will now try to reply.
I am passionate about:
My son;
Engineering and the environment;
Politics;
History (particularly military history);
Ireland and Irish history;
the Constitution;
Alternative energy;
Art;
Civil rights.
I think that's most of it. There are many things I like. I like AHL hockey, pancakes, cold windy days, firearms, and Jennifer Love-Hewitt. But I'm not passionate about much.
