Apologies days 02-05

So, having lost consistent connection to the spidernet I more or less forgot about this for a few days, time to make up...

Day 02: Favorite television program

Well, if I had to pick a single favorite which I have enjoyed consistently for years, even in syndication. I'd have to go with the cosby show. That's just good television, and if I really need to explain it more than that well... I'm sorry.

Day 03: Favorite book

Well, no one book can really fill this role, but I can pick a series - The books of swords series by Fred Saberhagen was the first book series to ever really ensnare me and because of that it has always held a special place for me. It's hard to describe but essentially it is a post-apocalyptic dark age where magic exists and there are still relics from a distant past wherein they used the magic of 'technology'. Mostly standard fantasy fare, with some nice sci-fi touches. The major plotline is centered on the gods becoming bored and deciding to play a game, this game involved making twelve magical swords imbued with special powers and seeing how mortals would react to these swords being amongst them. It's a really fun series, and I'd suggest it to anyone without hesitation.

Day 04: My favorite quote

Wow, this may be the hardest one yet, since everything is a reference to a quote from something else with me. Again, forcing myself to just jump in and pick one I'd probably go with a classic from Men in Black "A person is smart, people are dumb, stupid, panicky animals and you know it." it highlights something I feel deeply that for all the complex nuance of humanity, and our hubris, we are still in the end just animals doing what comes naturally to us.

Day 05: What tickles my fancy right now is not writing another one of these things so I'm gonna take a pass on day 05, hopefully I'll remember to return for day 06, otherwise, have a great holiday everyone. (:
