chikadee:
you can't tag me unless you tag me dammit pfffffffft. your tag is void. eeek

Currently reading Cat's cradle, my first venture into vonnegut, so far in terms of ideas it feels like a homecoming of sorts.
commonman:
Kurt Vonnegut is awesome. The first book of his that I read was Slapstick. I read it in the sixth grade, so I doubt that I really got most of it. But I still liked it.

Don't worry about #11, there are people whoe xpect that I should know italian and even gaelic(!). Yeah, lots of gaelic speaking going on around here.

At least you only have ants, yestrday (at work) we had waterbugs. I hate waterbugs.

Vegas! I hope you come out with more than you went in.

You have been tagged.
commonman:
Tagged to tell 20 things about yourself in list form. It's a virus that is going around here, and I passed it on to others such as you, Eilidh, and MadScience. Oh, and me in my last journal.

When can their glory fade?
O the wild charge they made!
All the world wondered.
Honor the charge they made,
Honor the Light Brigade,
Noble six hundred.
commonman:
That strange language is described here. Read that and you will know more than you need to about 1337.

Alfred Tennyson. Gotta love him.

if you have nothing, what do you have to loose?
commonman:
Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
They're drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made
Exchanging all kinds of precious gifts and things
But you'd better lift your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe
You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.

commonman:
But then she left. THERE IS ALTOGETHER TOO MUCH LEAVING AROUND HERE!

At least you didn't pee in his car, like a couple of my friends did one night. Always felt bad about that. But you shouldn't leave your windows open on a weekend, I guess.

The night's as hot as hell. It's a lousy room in a lousy part of a lousy town - I'm staring at a goddess. She's telling me she wants me. I'm not going to waste one more minute wondering how I've gotten this lucky. She smells like angels ought to smell, the perfect woman... the Goddess. Goldie. She says her name is Goldie.
commonman:
I'm sensing a film noir here. And I'm picturing a young Goldie Hawn. Mmmmm, Goldie.

There's a lotta things about me you don't know anything about, Dottie. Things you wouldn't understand. Things you couldn't understand. Things you shouldn't understand.
commonman:
"Things you shouldn't understand." Uh-oh, he's a serial killer! Or maybe he likes to watch Sesame Street while wearing Superman underoos. Either way, scary!

commonman:
Damn that Lucy! Did she pull the football away again?

commonman:
I'm know it was supposed to take place there, but I'm not sure it actually did. But yes, it is a very nice place to vacation. Luckily, my uncle inherited a cabin and some land right on the shore. I'm looking forward to it.
