Meme: 20th-Century Literature
Jul. 31st, 2010 12:02 amWhat follows is the 50 best English-Language books of the 20th Century, as compiled by Brian Kunde. The full list has 223 entries, along with information on how the rankings were compiled, but I have chosen (for brevity) to include only the top 50 contenders.
Mark the ones you've read in bold. My own assessment is that I'm woefully derelict in my reading.

Princess Bride Meme
Jun. 10th, 2010 02:04 pmWhen you see this, post in your own journal with your favorite quote from The Princess Bride. Preferably not “As you wish” or the Inigo Montoya speech.
I will do this simply in honor of the most amazing film ever made. However, coming up with a favorite is difficult. As a result, I give you my top three.
Never go in against a Thithilian, when death is on the line! Hahahahahahaha! Hahahahahahaha! Hahaha... *thump*
Sonny, true love is the greatest thing in the world. Except for a nice MLT, a mutton, lettuce and tomato sandwich, where the mutton is nice and lean and the tomato is ripe. They're so perky, I love that.
There's a shortage of perfect breasts in this world. It would be a pity to damage yours.

Go to your Calendar and find the first entry for each month of 2009. Post the first line of it in your journal, and that's your "Year In Review."
January
Leave me a comment and I will reply with why I like you.
February
Gacked this from Doctordidj but had to post it here for the benefit of my friends. (Video of a guy flying over a lake with a water-powered jetpack)
March
I asked my daughter, Fortunata, to create an image of the Old Wolf, my otherworldly avatar - naturally it was a paid commission. (And naturally, I love it.)
April
It's not a good joke ... (When someone feels bad.)
May
Previous Russian bots were names like atelkrz, metonzo, adenkut. Go to their profiles and it's all in Cyrillic, pretty much a dead giveaway. (There have been almost none in the second half of the year. Huge respect to the LJ technical staff!)
June
Daily chores include walking, chasing down and feeding five dogs; bottle feeding 1 calf and 1 sheep 3 times a day; feeding chickens and 1 satanic pigeon, collecting an egg or two if there are any (last two days there haven't been, don't know if she's not laying or has found a different place to hide her eggs); letting sheep into the pasture in the morning and bringing them back at night (Mark is an excellent sheep dog); feeding the neighbor's horses once a day; caring for three caged birds; feeding wild birds; checking 5 cows for any new births (none so far); doing what repairs the weather will permit (it rains often and without warning); and handling any emergencies. (Farm livin' is the life for me!)
July
Terminator Salvation. I went to be entertained, I was entertained. Hardly edified, but that's not what these action films are for. (Self-explanatory)
August
Got up this morning and worked on updating a website for a couple of hours, and realized that I was suffering from sleep deprivation. So I went back to bed. [Because I can!]
Septober
1) "Your fetish for rubber underwear will cause you great embarrassment in public." [If you ran the fortune cookie factory...]
Octember
A person's divergent opinion doesn't scare me. I have friends (and relatives) who are straight, gay, transgender, republican, democrat, Mormon, atheist, Catholic, libertarian, Charismatic Evangelical, saved, damned, furry, fat, thin, Jewish, Klingon (at least, I'm pretty sure he is), and you name it. [Writer's block: Have you ever stopped being friends with someone over differences...]
Nowonder
Why, instead of buying an Enagic™ (Kangen™) water ionizer for $4,000, I could by a KYK water ionizer for only $1,700. [There's a sucker born every minute...]
December
I began smoking in 1964, at the age of 13, as a bid for acceptance at the prep school I attended... [Writer's Block: What are your feelings toward smoking...]

Don't take too long to think about it. Fifteen books you've read that will always stick with you, for whatever reasons. This isn't your top 15 canon or even books you'd necessarily recommend, just books that have made their mark on you. First fifteen you can recall in no more than 15 minutes.
( Mine are below the cut )

Meme: ♬ What kind of book am I? ♬
Sep. 12th, 2009 04:51 pmYou Are Fantasy / Sci Fi |
 You have an amazing imagination, and in your mind, all things are possible. You are open minded, and you find the future exciting. You crave novelty and progress. Compared to most people, you are quirky and even a bit eccentric. You have some wacky ideas. And while you may be a bit off the wall, there's no denying how insightful and creative you are. |
