1. Comment on this entry saying "interview me" or likewise.
2. I will formulate five incredibly thought provoking or ridiculously pointless questions and pose them to you.
3. You will then update your journal with amazing answers for me to read.
4. Rinse and repeat.
fallenfaun interviewed me...
1. If you won the lottery, what is the first thing you would buy?
This sounds incredibly trite, but...video games. I've have an X-Box for...five years? In that time I've owned one game and I beat it many times before finally giving it to my nephew. I'd grab a 360 Elite and go to town on games. I grew up playing video games, I remember my Atari 5200 and my Sega Genesis and my Super Nintendo, I remember coming home from school and blowing off my Freshman Lit assignments to plug in the N64. I've always loved video games and I miss them very much, but it seems kind of like a stupid purchase as an adult with other responsibilities and not a lot of disposable income.
2. What is one song/artist/album you think everyone should own?
Oh, Enki. I'm probably the least musical person in the world and the worst to decide necessity.
So, for artist, let us say The Highwaymen. I think they were the best group, bar none, in country music history. I think the music they did was some of the best in the careers of all the four of them. Also: to my delight, unlike the Beatles, I think the right two died first.
For song, The House Is Empty Now by Sopor Aeternus and the Ensemble, which is just gorgeous and haunting and I've never stopped loving it. Seriously, listen to it.
And on album, I'm caught. Either Band of Gypsies by Taraf de Haïdouks, ...nothing but a dream from Paul Kelly or Ellis Paul's Translucent Soul. It really depends on my mood, but right now I'm saying you should go buy ...nothing but a dream.
3. You're stuck on a desert island with one celebrity, who is it?
Oh, Enki. Uhm...Bono, 'cause I figure he's proactive enough, and desperate enough to help the world, that he'd find us a way make to civilisation. If that's considered a cop out, Dita von Teese, to see how she'd freak at not being able to dye her hair. And also to have something pretty to look at.
4. What one historical event do you wish you could've witnessed?
The ordering of the sandwich what started World War I. I mean, think about it: something so innocuous and then, bam, dead Franz and suddenly there's this whole 'war' thing and a series of events that eventually lead to everything terrible in the Western world.
5. What is your favorite flavor of ice cream? (Really hoping you're not lactose intolerant)
Oh, I'm not. Peanut butter or mint. It depends on my mood, but usually peanut butter.

I don't know what's up with anyone. Trying to weed my way through the flist is impossible between all the talk of telly and memes and...whatever. So...anything important? Link me, explain, whatever. I want to know what's up with all-y'all.
I wish people would stop updating me on him. Thalia is the worst. What part of "If I wanted to know, I'd talk to him" do people have a problem with?
Mother's Day always depresses me; Ce managed to talk me into seeing my mum and all that. Wish I hadn't. (Why can't he just understand that my mother is...not a mother?)
Elleigh is already trying to set me up with a new guy. "You're breaking up in three months, you should have a guy on reserve and he thinks you're hot." Well, it's nice, I guess. Though her showing my photo to strangers is largely disconcerting.
I love sub-division names. You have Whispering Pines. You have Harmony Hills. Then you have Sugar Bush Estates. And no, I didn't make that up. I pass it all of the time.

So, someone want to offer up something to put in my profile? I feel like it should say something, but I don't know what. Anything?
To be clear, I'm looking for endorsement or condemnation, not pithy quotes from dead guys.
So, friend, foe, stranger. Offer up something. Any grain of truth to it and it'll be in the profile.

Hey, peeps.
So, can anyone recommend a good non-Windows Picture & Fax Viewer image viewer. Freeware, pref, but open to possibilities. It doesn't need editing capabilities, just needs to be good enough to enlarge an image, and move onto the next without resizing the image to fit the window.
Anything? Bueller?

Last night, watching South Park while I waited for Craig Ferguson to come on, I craved pizza. It passed, though. All I've wanted is fruit and veg and low-fat dairy. Also, Jeffrey Dean Morgan was on Craig and, OMG, he is so giggly. I never knew that. It's so cute. And he has a HD Night Rod. How hot is that? I'm wearing my Harley tee today in a show of hog solidarity.
I submitted things to Teaspoon yesterday and haven't gotten a confirmation or "You suck, patooey" yet. I do, however, have a few new things up at TTH. And fics for Anna and chopsticks at
ficciness that were asked for, like, a year ago, nearly.

All right, so, computer trouble!
I'm rearranging all my music (the paltry 8 gigs of it) and having a problem. I need to delete some empty folders, so of course I'm having Issues.
I get that stupid error message, Cannot Delete Thao Nguyen: The Path is Too Deep.
Which is balderdash, because the path is F:\Thao Nguyen You don't need a degree in computer science to see that it's a short frickin' path. Every folder in My Documents in 3 times as long, at least.
I've tried deleting it through both explorer and cmdprmpt.

Hey, there.
I made a header post, largely comprised of really old and crappy stuff and headers I've used.
So, if I've had a header that you coveted, go steal it and turn it into a beautiful frankensteinian creation or something.
