I haven't done one of these for ages.  Stolen from most of you actually.


People who have been tagged must write their answers on their blog and replace any question that they dislike with a new, original question.

Tag eight people. Don't refuse to do that. Don't tag who tagged you.. Yoink and complete yourself as you wish. :)

Gosh there are a lot of these about atm int there?

Pinched from a large portion of my friend's list.  You know who you are.


According to The Big Read, the average adult has only read 6 of the top 100 books on their list. So let's see how many I've read.

1) Bold those you have read.
2) Italicise those you intend to read.
3) Underline the books you LOVE.
4) Reprint this list in your own LJ, or not, as you see fit.
5) asterisk * books that you have started but couldn't finish.


Hey is this a new list?  It's different to the one I've been working through.  The Five People You Meet In Heaven was most def not on there before.  Nor was The Bible.

21/100 

Yes definitely different, I'd read about 25 off the old one.

*edit*  have checked and this is totes not the BBC Big Read list.  THIS is the Big Read list.

1 - Go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to Random quotations: http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.

*Hint* - If you want to do this again, you'll hit refresh to generate new quotes, because clicking the quotes link again will just give you the same quotes over and over again.

3 - Go to flickr's "explore the last seven days" http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover (you may need to play with the URL to get it to show in this thread, deleting everything after .jpg).

Put it all together, that's your debut album.

Mine is:
Band Name: Leslie Browne
Album Title: End of a Journey
Album cover:
 

Well that just screams Bargain Bin and/or pan-pipes :D

Stolen from a bunch of LJers, I give you proof that these things are inaccurate:

So, myrtlebaggins, your LiveJournal reveals...



You are... 0% unique and 27% herdlike (partly because you, like everyone else, enjoy sewing). When it comes to friends you are normal. In terms of the way you relate to people, you believe in give and take. Your writing style (based on a recent public entry) is intellectual.

Your overall weirdness is: 10

(The average level of weirdness is: 27.
You are weirder than 15% of other LJers.)

Find out what your weirdness level is!

Normal, my right pinky.

Usual thing, songs on random, post 15 first lines and people identify the songs.  I don't have that many of you on my flist so this could fall really really flat :)  I shall only put a selection of  musicals/musical movie songs in there to make it easier (if you know musicals!) and I may have expanded the one line rule a little.  I'll cross 'em out when/if they've been Got. 

1.  We're clearly soldiers in petticoats, dauntless crusaders for women's votes
2.  Tell me before I waltz out of your life - before turning my back on the past
3.  Maybe far away or maybe real near by, he may be pouring her coffee - she may be straightening his tie
4.  I dreamed last night I got on the boat to Heaven and by some chance I had brought my dice along
5.  Love is a many splendoured thing, love lifts us up where we belong - all you need is love!
6.  You think I'm an ignorant savage and you've been so many places I guess it must be so
7.  I admit that in the past I've been a nasty....they weren't kidding when they called me, well, a witch
8.  Whatever happened to fair dealings and pure ethics and nice manners?  Why is it everyone now is a pain in the ass?
9.  Only you, you're the only thing I'll see forever.  In my eyes in my words and in everything I do - nothing else but you...ever
10.  Times have changed and we've often rewound the clock since the Puritans got a shock when they landed on Plymouth Rock.
11. Your story's sad to tell....a teenage ne'er do well
12.  Try not to get worried, try not to turn on to problems that upset you, oh!
13. Why'd you run away?  Don't you like my style?
14. She climbs a tree and scrapes her knee, her dress has got a tear
15. Small pleasures, small pleasures! Who would deny us these? Gin toddies, large measures no skimpin' if you please.
16. There's a bright golden haze on the meadow, there's a bright golden haze on the meadow
17. My mother was frightened by a shotgun they say - that's why I'm such a wonderful shot!
18. Don't tell me not to live just sit and putter - life's candy and the sun's a ball of butter
19.  If you really wanna know what I want in a guy - well I'm looking for a dream on a mean machine with Hell in his eyes
20. Once I had a husband - you know the sort of chap!  I met him at a dance and how he came on with the chat.

Hah! Extrovert? Adventurous? Middle Class?!  I think I went wrong somewhere...

So, here's how it works:
1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool...

Gosh I'm all *busy*. This morning I have already been the pics with N to see 'Flushed Away' (I worried it would be kiddy but I larfed quite a bit) and now I have to race to B+Q to get 3 bags of bark chip and then race back and dig out the old and replace it in the chicken run before the light goes in 2 hours. Will I make it? And will I be able to move tomorrow? Time will tell...
