Borrowed from .

Suggest to me:

1. A movie.
2. A book.
3. A musical artist, song, or album.
4. An LJ user not on my friends list.
5. Something to do in the next two months.

    2. Someplace to Be Flying (Charles de Lint)
    3. VAST: Pretty When You Cry
    4.
    5. Play at least one game of obscure sport that you’ve never played before .

  5. 1. Big Fish. Already recommended this, but I’m doing it again.
    2. Another um. We don’t read much in the same genres. Playing by the Rules by Beverly Bird was really good, though.
    3. Norah Jones
    4.
    5. Finish TB and write HoC. Okay, part of HoC? :)

  6. Movie: Heathers
    Book: Tale of Two Cities
    Music: bellamorte.com (This is a local goth band. Check out their version of the love song from Titanic – it’s on their site at the bottom of the “releases” page.
    LJ: I can’t think of anyone you don’t know.
    Something to do: Clean out your closet and take clothes to Goodwill/SA

  7. 1. Rigoletto http://www.familytv.com/title_ado.asp?SID=199914217550&PID=230 (It’s a “Feature Films for Families” movie and as such, it’s… well… it’s a family movie. ;) FFF is sorta fringe-ish, but they have good intentions. 98 minutes, heavily fairy-talelike in my opinion, but it’s supposed to suport good values, yadda yadda. I first saw it in college and I still like it.)
    2. Snow in August by Pete Hamill. (I have the feeling you’ll “get” it better than the amazon.com reviewers- approach it like historical fantasy, instead of a Steinbeck-clone. Sheesh. Unimaginative people out there.)
    3. Steeleye Span – “Let Her Go Down” and “Black Freighter” (pop-folk, sailing theme)
    4. and/or
    5. Go to Denver for GhengisCon over President’s Day weekend! And, uh, barring that… draw your cats. ;)

  9. Tale of Two Cities is surprisingly good. I resisted reading it until my little sister did, then I had to do it just to show her what was what, or something like that. I think it was in ’93. ;)

  10. 1. The Specials, a day in the life of the world’s sixth (or seventh) best team of superheroes. Available on DVD.
    2. From a Buick 8 by Stephen King, which, perhaps surprisingly, has no words that don’t need to be there.
    3. Thea Gilmore, Rules for Jokers, although Avalanche would serve as well. No, definitely RfJ, since it includes “This Girl.”
    4. You know don’t you? Food, teapots, lasers, and 101 interests.
    5. Write another book! (I would suggest flying to London to see the play of Philip Pullman’s His Dark Materials, but then your arms would be too tired to type.)

  11. 1) Beautiful Thing
    2) The Fountain Overflows by Rebecca West
    3) Evanescence
    4)
    5) Write a story incorporating a goat, a violin and the colour puce ;)

    There’s always a goat

  12. 1. The Saint (Val Kilmer), but I’m not much on movies
    2. Nine Princes in Amber by Roger Zelazny
    3. Ponzi Scheme by Firewater
    4. m’self? Or, if I don’t count, ?
    5. Spend time with some “Learn a foreign language” tapes for the language of your choice

  14. 1. North by Northwest, the perfect Hitchcock film
    2. Mister Monday, Garth Nix
    3. Plink (duh)
    4.
    5. Figure out what makes werewolves cry

  15. 1. The Transporter. Frickin’ A.
    2. The Alphabet Versus the Goddess.
    3. 1 Giant Leap.
    4.
    5. Buy my book (in March). Or, read it when I send it to you, assuming I get authors copies.

  16. 1. Antonia’s Line
    2. Um… Had Enough?, by James Carville, but only if politics won’t make your head explode.
    3. The Canadian Brass
    4.
    5. Write! (You didn’t say it had to be something you weren’t already planning to do…)

  17. But this one is actually interesting. 0.0

    1. Six-String Samurai
    2. I Heard the Owl Call My Name, by Margaret Craven, which I found surprisingly moving
    3. Buried Things, by Folk Underground
    4. , for wacky art
    5. make a road-trip somewhere

  18. 1. Metropolis
    2. City of the bees
    3. Kurt Nilsen
    4. Foxtrot_feed
    5. With your ample free time between work and writing and drawing and whatnot… uhm. Practice calligraphy, that’s two out of three =)

  19. I just finished Mister Monday and thought it was fantasticly twisted and weird.

  20. Having the fate of the world resting on your shoulders makes this werewolf cry. :)
