I like your opening too, Divine! As a published author I know how the first lines should attract people's attention. Well done!

Joe Love ...

Oh, that's so funny ... in Microsoft Word, I have the question-answer segment just as you suggested.  When I copied and pasted it to the blog site, the formatting disappeared ... couldn't retrieve it.  Thanks for commenting!

I like the idea as an opening
It does capture attention immediately.

I do, however, feel you should place the question-answer segment on individual lines, with the answer in italics.
