A List of Lists

If you don't want to talk to me after reading this, let me read YOUR responses and then I won't talk to you.... or something ;-)


Guilty Pleasures:

  • Hanson’s “Mmmm Bop”
  • TLC’s “What Not to Wear”
  • Little House on the Prairie Books
  • French Fries dipped in basil pesto ranch salad dressing
  • Sleeping in nothing but a T-shirt (though I don’t do it often simply because of the possibility of a walk-in by somebody, or sharing a room with somebody). Sorry if that was TMI.

Movies that seemingly everybody in the world has seen, except me

  • Cold Mountain
  • Zoolander
  • Back to the Future (All parts)
  • Rocky Horror Picture Show
  • School of Rock

Worst band image/gimmick

Classic Rock bands or artists that still think they’re in their 20’s, and most definitely are NOT, and should get over the fact that that time in their lives is past.

  • The Rolling Stones. Don’t get me wrong, I love the Rolling Stones, but it’s a little nasty to see Sir Mick and company with their shirts off at this point in time.
  • Paul McCartney. His marriage to a woman ONE YEAR OLDER than his daughter is something I just can’t get over.
  • Madonna. Yes she dresses much better (mostly) than she did twenty years ago, but her way of dancing/gyrating in music videos nowadays is just not right for a 40-something woman.
Top Ten Favorite Not-Your-Typical-Popular-Music Favorite Songs:
  • Mocedades and Donovan – Colores
  • A Scholar and a Physician – Super Mario Brothers Dirty Mix (OCRemix.org)
  • Beauty and the Beast – Tale As Old As Time
  • James Horner – Launching the Boat (From “The Devil’s Own” Soundtrack)
  • Moxy Fruvous – King of Spain
  • Wilco – I’m Always in Love
  • Paul McCartney and Wings – Mull of Kintyre
  • Mike Cross – The Drunk Scotsman
  • Denis Leary – Cows with Guns
  • Barenaked Ladies – Call and Answer

The First 5 records/CDs you owned:
    1. Real McCoy
    2. Ace of Base – The Bridge
    3. The Beatles – Help
    4. La Bouche – Be My Lover single
    5. The London Symphony Orchestra performs the Beatles’ Greatest Hits
Yes. I was a weird hybrid of a child of the 60's and of the mid-90's (I discovered the wonders of the radio and music not of the generation of my parents sometime between 1995 and 1997, or, between the fourth and sixth grades).
