From, originally, on my friends' list at least, buffyannotater:Here are the rules: Answer all the questions with the song titles of one band/group/artist. Multiple albums are fine (recommended, in fact). State the band/group/artist you're using in the subject line. Perty simple ( Read more... )

books, prince, funk, sly & the family stone, music, movies, memes

7. Π

I have a vague recollection of you talking about your favorite pie at the restaurant we went to on the wine tour, but I don't recall your selection. Pizza pie from Zachary's maybe?

I realized after posting this that "Deep dish pie from Zachary's with pepperoni, onion and garlic" might be a better answer to number seven than the one I intended! I did indeed spend a fair amount of a gathering talking about my favorite dessert-type pie, but it wasn't the Tahoe gathering.

::knows flist:: I am glad that vague recollection might be from some gathering.

Yesterday I was perusing my memories of the Tahoe gathering, and you state somewhere about me making you a Zachary pizza icon. I googled images of that pizza right after I read that comment, but never got around to actually making the icon. Hence I was able to use that info now. ;-)

I figure the more I actually post, the greater the inevitability of my receiving spontaneous icons. It's something to aim for, anyway.

2) Arrested Development

3) Serenity (Okay, probably not...)

4) Sly & the Family Stone

5) Pride & Predjudice

6) I see you as a Pollock man

7) Pecan?

Sly & the Family Stone is correct! Congratulations!

1 is very, very close, but wrong. I've never seen even an episode of Arrested Development (but I feel obligated to see the one with Munch). I do love Pride & Prejudice, but it's a recent love, without the sort of long-term affection that would accomplany favorite status. Besides, I doubt it's even my favorite Jane Austen novel.

I'm pretty sure Le vicomte de Bragelonne ranks up there as one of your top 3 books.
One would think so, from the trappings and all, but I think rereading is the surest sign of love for these book, and having so recently (well, five or six years ago) plowed through the 2,500 pages of Le vicomte I have felt the urge but not yet the need to do so again.

I do love Miro, but he is not the painter of whom I was thinking.

Wrong. Wrong. Right!! Finally, someone who pays attention! Or ate at Two Boots the day before yesterday. With my ex-girlfriend. Whom I addicted to that pie.

I have no idea about any of them, but insofar as the novesl go, if you're not a Tom Wolfe/Thomas Pynchon fan, I'm going to be disillusioned. You have that...aura.

Or maybe White Noise, even if I've never understood its appeal.

Next up: you declare your undying devotion to Disney's "Aristocats." Right? Right?

I never finished White Noise. I enjoyed The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test. I was underwhelmed by The Crying of Lot 49 (a dastardly conspiracy to deliver the mail?) but was enraptured with Mason & Dixon. But I've left bookmarks in both Vineland and Gravity's Rainbow. I do in fact love the Aristocats. It's not the right answer (the 70's Disney movie that would really contend would be Robin Hood).
