Recommend to me... 1. a movie 2. a book 3. a musical artist, song, or album 4. a LiveJournal user not on my friend's list 5. what I should have for dinner 6. a website and put it in a comment and then put this in your journal
I liked "Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind", the new Charlie Kaufmann film, romantic and thoughtful and horrifying all at once. Still haunts me a bit. The story is basically about a man who discovers his ex-girlfriend, whom he still loves, has excised all memories of him from her mind, so he decides to do the same thing.
2. a book
Dorothy Dunnette - if you've never read her. She's a fascinating and detailed historical novelist whose tales take place in 1500 Scotland. The Game of Kings - first of the Lymond Chronicles is about a man who has been exiled from his country and seeks to clear his name during the English/Scotish border wars in 1540s when Mary Queen of Scotts was 8 years old.
3. a musical artist, song, or album
I've just discovered the Songs of Tom Lehrer which are wonderfully subversive and comical. Another favorite is Aimee Mann's Lost in Space album which reminds me a great deal of Suzanne Vega's music.
4. a LiveJournal user not on my friend's list
Hmmm...not sure whose not on your friends list that's on mine? Do you have superplin? She's fantastic. Also I've watching discuss writing - which is a nice link to have.
5. what I should have for dinner
Here's an easy meal - wrap chicken, a few vegetables of your choice, season with salt and pepper, and wrap in tin foil - fold corners over - put on a cookie sheet, cook for 20 minutes in a 425 degree oven, and eat. It cooks in its own juices. Very easy and good. (Mom taught me when she was visiting)
6. a website
tough one - http://everyonewhosanyone.com/index.html
Great website for me!! I have definitely got that bookmarked.
I love Tom Lehrer (old enough to have heard him the first time around) and think I may have heard Aimee Mann. Will look for her. Certainly will try to find the Dunnette book. Amazingly, Eternal Sunshine will be here soon (still waiting for many good films already old to most of you NY folk). Yes, good chicken! Will try.
Thanks. This was definitely a good meme for me--give it a try.
