Death comes for us all (a melodramatic haiku of retirement)
Alas! this blog is
no longer where it is at.
Onwards! (Back to home.)



guts and garters

It's all fun and games until someone loses molecular cohesion.

I'm happy that Lizz is back and now she's filling out interesting surveys that I think I should too, because it looks interesting.

1. What are the 3 rarest cd's/tapes that you own?
Hmm, not sure. Definitely my Zeitgeist promo single CD. I mean, the thing's official, but it's still burnt, with a single computer-printed page insert. I won it at a goth night. Yay me. Second would be, I guess, the Funker Vogt CD "Maschine Zeit", which I also won at a goth night. And after that, I really don't know. Maybe Letters to Cleo "Aurora Gory Alice". Or maybe the Preaching to the Perverted soundtrack.
2. What are 3 most common cd's/tapes you own?
Crowded House's greatest hits album and Metallica's "S&M". Seems like every second person owns those. And maybe Queen's greatest hits. That's a common one. Or Alanis Morissette's "Jagged Little Pill". Yes, I was once a teenage girl.
3. Name 3 movies that nobody will believe you've never seen.
Apocalypse Now, apparently. Everyone who hears now, with the Redux out and all, can't believe that I haven't seen this movie. "Call yourself a movie goddess," they say. Hmph. And I can barely believe I've never seen The Exorcist. No one would ever believe I've never seen Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, but that's because I've seen it at least five times...
4. Name 3 movies that you're reluctant to admit you love.
There are none such. Because every movie I love I love for very good reasons that I'm quite willing to expound upon in defense of my selection. I mean, even Tank Girl. I love it. I think it's great. It's just so much fun!
5. 3 authors you've read most (or all) of the work by? (4 if you include JK Rowling).
(Bah. JK Rowling doesn't count; she's only got four books so far.) JV Jones, and I'm dying here; when's the next one coming out, Julie? I've read almost all of Eddings, except The Losers and High Hunt, but that's twenty books anyway, so isn't that enough? What else. I don't know. I've read the entirety of the Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan thus far, and a fair slug of the mediocre Conan books (and I'm still waiting for Conan the Constipated). Plus I've read all of KJ Parker except the first book of the new series, which I'm dying to get my hands on.
6. Your 3 favourite PC games?
Carmageddon, the Carmageddon Splat Pack, and Carmageddon 2? OK, Carmageddon as one game. I loved and adored a game called Pirates! Gold, but it's fairly old now, and runs too fast on my computer to be playable. I don't buy a lot of games these days, but I guess Baldur's Gate would have to be right up there too. It's a great game.
7. 3 blogs you think more people should read?
Mine! Ahem. Sorry. Maura.com isn't really a blog, but I think everyone should read it. Maura has a way with words. Miss Melissa makes me giggle and think. She's great. And I would say Shauny, but everyone reads her already, right?
8. If everyone else answers no to this question, will you too?
Let me ask the committee.
