My First Gakk
Gakked from Ams:
Step 1: Get your playlist together, put it on random, and play!
Step 2: Pick a line or two from the first 10 songs that play.
Step 3: Post and let everyone you know guess what song the lines come from!
Step 4: Cross out the songs when someone guesses correctly!
P.S: using a search engine is cheating.
1: I’ll tell you a secret - I find you adorable… I find you adorable…
2: As long as I know I have love, I can make it!
3: You might run on for a long time - run more, ducking and dodging
4: She’s at the bus-stop with the News of the World and the son…
5: It took six hamburgers and Scotch all night, nicotine for breakfast, just to put me right
6: ... welcome back... Eric Clapton!
7: You know we'll never get far, riding around in a stolen police car
8: Don't think of the danger, or the stranger is gone
9: Echoes and roars, dinosaurs, they’re all doing the Monster Mash - and most of the taxis, most of the whores, are only taking calls for cash...
10: [No lyrics]
Does all that date me horribly?

I hate to mention last night’s TV again (hey, all my drinking friends are in London, okay?
), but probably the most remarkable thing in last night’s premier of the new series of Miss Marple was Jamie Theakston’s (yes, that Jamie Theakston’s) superb, nuanced performance, bringing an unrecognizable dignity and pain to the role of a bankrupt, alcoholic ex-fighter pilot.
All the performances were superb - Edward Fox, Jo Lumley, Tara Fitzgerald, Ian Richardson, Jack Davenport (whose performance was a remarkable essay in how what it means to be a middle-class Londoner has changed in the past fifty years) and Simon Callow, even the random thirteen-year-old Girl Scout whose evidence clinched the case.
Good direction may have been at the back of it - but whatever it was, it was splendidly impressive.
But you know you’re too much of a Star Wars fanboy when you think that Geraldine McEwan would make a good Vergere…
***
In other news, I had a really, really good lunch on Saturday. But I’ve already promised the online writeup to WOOKEEHut: the fact that they combine genre fanfic and that sort of thing is just one more reason why they’re so good…
