1. The Producers, by Mel Brooks
2. Technological Risk by H.W. Lewis
3. Schooner Fare (this has come up a number of times onlist)
4. daveamongus is (former) Bujold Listie Dave Klecha, recently activated with his Marine Reserve unit for a year in Iraq. He's currently in training to be an Arabic interpreter, which the Corps thinks will take him a month to learn. He posts fairly rarely, but they're interesting.

>1. The Producers, by Mel Brooks

Heh, yes, that one I've seen. When I first moved out to California it was to live with what had been a long distance boyfriend, who worked in the film industry and wanted to be a producer someday. So he insisted I had to see that.

Wow, they think Dave can be an Arabic interpreter in a month?!?

Ah, Karl has several Brother albums.

(Heh, what a memory. He was saying "I've heard them in concert, do I have any of their albums?" I know his album collection better than he does. Then again, I'm the one that alphabetized the joint collection.)

1. Dinner at Eight - The early 1930's original, starring Jean Harlow, Marie Dressler and Lionel and John Barrymore. Its afabulous and surprisingly modern story with a simple premise (woman trying to put on a dinner party) and a cast of gloriously complex characters.

2. The Cloudships of Orion Series by P.K. McAllister. Its a trilogy, "Siduri's Net", "Maia's Veil" and "Orion's Dagger". Excellent space opera, again its all about character interaction.

3. Luka Bloom, Irish singer songwriter who I was introduced to this year. A voice that just melts my soul.

4. norabombay, My roommate and long-time Bujold listie Elizabeth, aka Nora Bombay.

We've got both the LotR movies in extended DVDs. (Heck, that's why we bought the DVD player!)

I love that song. Actually, I'm fond of a lot of modern country music. Didn't used to like it, but found in the mid to late 90's that it had changed a lot. Lots of songs about positive relationships and families, which I didn't hear anywhere else. Thought about it, decided I liked the kind of person I'd be if I was listening to that, so did listen to it. (If that makes sense to you.) Although I do find a lot of people that seem to think it's silly of me to like it.

Have you heard Clint Black's song Something That We Do?

1) For comedy, two classics I would recommend is "The Party" and "The Magic Christian.

2) You've had better luck recommending books to me than the other way around

3) Hmmm.....depends on mood I guess. For Celtic-type, Fionna Joyce. For Drifty relaxing, Tim Story. For Techno-Jazz, Tangerine Dream, (the lead for them went on to do the music for Babylon 5). Classic Rock, Jethro Tull or Fleetwood Mac. Techno-rock, Rammstein. As for Country, I don't know your tastes well enough to recommend.

4) Hmmmm.... There's my friend Dr. Nightshade. (Dr. Shanna Compton, DVM), farmount
