Wednesday, April 07, 2004 Some Meme Questions (via Shawn Allison): [Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 18, find line 4. Write down what it says] "Over the river, in the Old City, the streets were narrower and..." From Perdido Street Station by China Miéville. (Disclaimer: I have yet to read this book. I have way too many unread books lying around.) [Stretch your left arm out as far as you can. What do you touch first?] The edge of a bookcase. [What is the last thing you watched on TV?] I don't remember. It's been a long time since I've watched television. [With the exception of the computer, what can you hear?] The first movement of Felix Mendelssohn's String Quintet No. 2 in B flat major. It's a recording, not public radio. [When did you last step outside?] About two hours before this post. [Before you came to this website, what did you look at?] Reflections in d minor. [What are you wearing?] Jeans and a brown sweater. [Did you dream last night?] Yes, but don't ask me to recall it. [When did you last laugh?] Not too long ago when I was reading about how the inventor of the Reach toothbrush helped fund TIGR (The Institute of Genomic Research) and HGS (Human Genome Sciences). Yes, I know I have a really weird sense of humor. [What is on the walls of the room you are in?] A calendar with a bunch of smiley faces on it. No, I'm not kidding. [Seen anything weird lately?] No. [What do you think of this quiz?] Amusing. [What is the last movie you saw?] The Ladykillers. [If you became a multi-millionaire overnight, what would you buy first?] Books. Maybe a car. [Tell me something about you that I don't know:] I have mashed up infant mouse brains before. I'm sure the protocol for mashing adult mouse brains is no different. [If you could change one thing about the world, regardless of guilt or politics, what would you do?] Besides world peace, ending hunger, blah, blah, blah, I would like forty-something-year-old women to stop laughing at me. [Do you like to dance?] Not really. [George Bush:] Uh, no. [Imagine your first child is a girl, what do you call her?] Despite my obsession with names, I really don't know. One thing's for sure, I wouldn't give a kid of mine a name I would give to a character in a story. [Imagine your first child is a boy, what do you call him?] See above. [Would you ever consider living abroad?] Depends. Example: Belgium, sure. Botswana, no. [posted by S. Y. Affolee on 5:14 PM : ]
