Might as well. Don't expect any real thought to be involved.

THE FRIDAY FIVE

1. If you could only choose 1 cd to ever listen to again, what would it be? Practical answer: Some complicated Rachmananov thing that would take me decades to figure out. From the gut: Elvis Costello, The Juliet Letters.

2. If you could only choose 2 movies to watch ever again, what would they be? I should really pick a couple of those movies that you can watch over and over again that they always play on TBS, like Groundhog Day or The American President. But I'll say Rushmore and Reservoir Dogs.

3. If you could only choose 3 books to read ever again, what would they be? Shogun, Surely You're Joking Mr. Feynman, and a world atlas.

4. If you could only choose 4 things to eat or drink ever again, what would they be? Blueberry cobbler with ice cream, salame picante pizza from Fritti, Jaeger schnitzel mit spatzle, and some unbottled, unpasteurized German pilsner straight from the source. [Wipes drool from chin.]

5. If you could only choose 5 people to ever be/talk/associate/whatever with ever again, who would they be?
Aside from Marjorie? I bow out of this one too.
