Comment to this post and i will give you a letter. You will then post ten of your favorite things that begin with that letter.
light_over_me gave me the project and I have to say I was stumped for a few of them but once I started seeing other words that started with E, it really jogged the old memory... GODS, I hate getting older...
1. Eylúðr - Anyone worth his salt should know what this is… I am waiting… No guesses? Why it is one of the 1000 names of Odin, thank you very much! I know how to work around the system, what can I say? After having my life changing experience, how could I not recognize the one deity that gave me another shot?
2. Eld - The album released by Enslaved in 1997. They were trying something slightly different after Trym left the band and they got this sort of slow yet brutal sound to it that could never be matched. It wasn’t their fastest and it wasn’t their hardest but many people say it was the best.
3. Erasers - Seriously, who could NOT love something that corrects mistakes? Could you imagine a world without them? Go on, try it… I dare you!
4. ESPN - All right, this is going to be a typical guy answer, but I have to say that there is nothing quite like having a channel where I can get my sports news from every day when I want. Granted, they have sort of gone the way of MTV and have more programming that isn’t really all that “sporty” but at least it is in the same genre, right?
5. EXP - Gods, I am such a nerd but I lived by this in my younger days and I still think I do to this day. It was all about the experience points, whether it was via the pen and paper route or the video game route. I spent HOURS trying to get them!
6. Earth - Yeah, yeah… it is a hunky bulky piece of space junk floating out in space with mostly useless people that just eat, drink and watch time fly by but really? We live here! EARTH ROOLZ! WOOO!
7. Elves - Yep, dipping into the nerd quota again but if you ever knew an elf (and come on, EVERYONE knows at least one, right?) then you know how valuable they are. Not only are they hoity self centered snobs who live far too long for their own good but they are also the measure by which any person can relate dickatude and dickosity. Because, really… All elves are dicks.
8. Express lanes - Seriously, as a bachelor who lives on Purina’s “Bachelor Chow”, I have to admit that the concept of 10 to 15 items or less (depending on your store of choice) is probably the greatest thing since the sliced bread that I am purchasing!
9. Elderberries - Because your mother was a hamster…
10. End - The one that we all have to face in the end, the one that brings value and meaning to our life and makes us do things that we generally wouldn’t do on our own if we were, shall we say, long living dicks. Most dread the word but it is the thing that keeps us coming back for more!
