I snatched this from El Sid. This looks like it could be interesting.
(A) First, recommend to me:
1. a movie
2. a book
3. a musical artist, song, or album
(B) Ask me three questions, no more, no less. Ask me anything you want. Answers will be posted next week--great time for strangers to say hi.
(C) Then go back to your blog, copy and paste this allowing your friends to ask you anything; say that you stole it from me.
We'll see where it goes.

"Rundown" (The Rock is gorgeous and Seann William Scott is hilarious)

I copied Evil too, but saved it as draft. Looks like I'm behind the times now, everyone's doing it!
Well, here's mine anyway. Personalized for you, I didn't just copy what I left for Evil. Cool, huh?
Book: Centennial by James Michener. Follows the history of Centennial, Colorado. Not just the history of the state, of course, but the people who made it what it is. One of those books you're sad to see end.
CD: Greenday, American Idiot. I know I've talked about it before, but give it a try. The album in it's entirety gives the feel of a play or a musical. It's awesome.
Movie: Like I said at Evil's, I don't watch many movies. I'll fall back on an old favorite, Lonesome Dove. Not a movie but a TV series, maybe you've seen it? Oh man....so damn good. Don't even start it unless you want to devote a whole day to it because you won't be able to resist.
Questions:
1. Who inspired you to start a blog?
2. Are you a grudge-holder?

(A) Recommendations:

b1. have you ever beaten the shit out of a red sox fan?
b2. how many women have you slept with?
b3. how many times a week is too much? (you can make your own assumptions here)
Movie: 8 men out, but you've seen that so I'll say...Love Actually.
Book: Where Are They Buried? How Did They Die? This is a fascinating book about the lives and deaths of famous and infamous people including several baseball players.
CD: Hrrmmmm...I think you could use a little DJ Shadow, Entroducing. It's probably not what you think, so keep an open mind. I recommend the song Long Stem. Very relaxing.
