Not again... I was tagged by Tina @ Fuzzy and Blue. I hate these things because I get a "brain cramp" trying to think of clever little things, and then feel disgusted because I overlooked hundreds of better choices I should have thought about instead. 1: Black and White or Color; how do you prefer your movies? Usually color, BUT all film noir movies can ONLY be enjoyed the way they were filmed in black and white especially "Good Night and Good Luck". Ted Turner should be drawn and quartered for colorizing Kiss Me Deadly (1955), Blue Dahlia (1946) , The Third Man (1949), and D.O.A. (1949) among others.
2: What is the 1 single subject that bores you to near-death?Anything that can be heard coming from George Bush, Dick Cheney and Fox News.
3: MP3s, CDs, Tapes or Records: what is your favorite medium for prerecorded music? MP3s, after all the 'good CD songs' have been ripped and burned to CDs or downloaded to my iPod.
4:
You are handed one 1st class trip plane ticket to anywhere in the world
and $10 million cash. All of this is yours provided that you leave and
not tell anyone where you are going … Ever. This includes family,
friends, everyone. Would you take the money and ticket and run?Nope, I can't see that happening.
5: Seriously, what do you consider the world's most pressing issue now? Lethal Violence and the will and means to deliver it on fellow humans like in GUNS, BOMBS and LANDMINES.
6: How would you rectify the world's most pressing issue?Make a "New Rule #1", No one can have any kind of weapon more lethal than a stick, stone or fist. The budget of the giant Military-Industrial-Complex recycled into free nursing homes for the elderly, free hospitals for children and channeled into food-production to eliminate the world's hunger.
7: You are given the chance to go back and change 1 thing in your life; what would that be?I guess it would have been to choose to be "richer and better looking" instead of merely studly and intelligent.
8: You are given the chance to go back and change 1 event in world history, what would that be?I can go with Tina on this one. I would render Barbara and George H. Walker Bush infertile. But I could also live with a miscarriage or an abortion as well!
9: A night at the opera, or a night at the Grand Ole' Opry –Which do you choose? WOW, that's pretty much a toss-up! I would go to the Grand Ole' Opry to see Willie Nelson and the Opera for the Student Prince to hear 'Drink, drink, drink' or Carmen to hear the 'Toreado Song' are just a few on a very short-list of possibilities.
10: What is the 1 great unsolved crime of all time you'd like to solve? What ever happend in 1947 around Roswell, New Mexico when something crashed, or was shot down.
11: One famous author can come to dinner with you. Who would that be, and what would you serve for the meal? George Orwell. A fine pork roast with all the trimmings. "All animals are created equal, but some animals are more tasty than others".
12:
You discover that John Lennon was right, that there is no hell below
us, and above us there is only sky — what's the 1st immoral thing you
might do to celebrate this fact?Very little, but "Give Peace A Chance" and "All You Need is Love" comes to mind for starters
For the moment, I won't tag anybody else, but don't anybody mess with me, OK!
