Name a CD you own that no-one else on your friends list does:
My friend Doug’s homemade but wonderful CD Spammaps--himself and his stuffed pig singing low-down blues (he wrote them, too, but his wife dressed the pig in a slinky dress).
Name a book you own that no-one else on your friends list does:
Just got The Web That Has No Weaver, an explanation of Chinese traditional medicine. But if someone has that, I’m sure no one has Charleston Receipts.
Name a movie you own on DVD/VHS/whatever that no-one else on your friends list does:
I hope someone does have Chushingura (The Forty Ronin), but I doubt it.
Name a place that you have visited that no-one else on your friends list has:
Besides Cameroon? I can name a lot of weird southern places, but have you Californians been to Philo, in Mendecino County?
Name a piece of clothing that no-one else on your friends list has:
A Women in Black tee shirt? An ankle-length black satin apron?
Name an occupation that you've had that no-one else on your friends list has had:
I was a spy for Shoney’s. Unknown to the staff there, I’d go in and eat like a normal person (if eating at Shoney’s is normal) and observe to see if the floor was clean and the servers came and asked if everything was OK, etc. Then Shoney’s reimbursed me. A very strange job.

And I lust your black satin apron. I only wear them sometimes, it is always amusing, and a black satin one would be most excellent.

Well, I once spent 10 days cleaning the blue dust off of hundreds of hothouse cucumbers. This was during my stay in Greece, on the island of Crete. (I know lots of lewd cucumber jokes now!)

You'll have to go with Charleston Receipts because The Web That Has No Weaver has been on my bookshelf (http://www.livejournal.com/users/atpolittlebit/14958.html) since 1988.

But it is kinda cool - being a spy - isn't it!! A feeling of incredible power, and hey - free food!

The Web That Has No Weaver is beautifully written and was a present from my son who is going to Chinese Traditional Medicine school--he says its the best on the subject.
