On Things I Have

Since I need some content, let’s steal from Todd! 🙂

  1. Name a CD you own that you think no-one else on your friends list does
    Cello Submarine, an interpretation of Beatles songs by the cellists of the Berlin Philharmonic.
  2. Name a book you own that you think no-one else on your friends list does:
    The Chess Mysteries of Sherlock Holmes, by Richard Smullyan.
  3. Name a movie you own on DVD/VHS/whatever that you think no-one else on your friends list does:
    The Rutles: All You Need is Cash, the Beatles-parody film starring Eric Idle (of Monty Python fame) and Neil Innes (of the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band fame). Idle’s McCartney parody isn’t that great, but Innes’ Lennon parody is simply fab.
  4. Name a place that you have visited that you think no-one else on your friends list has:
    Natural Chimneys, a strange geological formation in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley.
  5. Name a piece of technology or any sort of tool you own that you think no-one else on your friendslist has:
    A Nokia NGage, Nokia’s attempt at making a game console.
