| Saturday October 19th 2002 Completed my first succesful online purchase this week when I received Utah Saints' '92 cd in the mail. Couldn't find it in any store in Ottawa, so I held my breath and tried online. Found another one I was looking for too, but it would cost me nearly fifty bucks. I'm starting to like the wishlist feature I've found on a couple of sites - Amazon, MyMusic.ca.... handy for reminding myself what I'm still trying to track down: - The Seven Samurai (DVD) (can't find it!) - Amadeus (DVD) (less than $20 at Rogers Video) - The Passion of Ayn Rand (DVD documentary) - A Storm of Swords (don't have time to read it yet, but it's a 'must read' eventually). Mymusic.ca also has a cool 'Desert 5' feature - what five cds would you bring with you? My picks: 'Utah Saints' - Utah Saints 'MCMXCad' - Enigma (which I still don't have on cd) 'Divine Comedy' - Milla (the cd I can't find for less than fifty) 'Rhythm Nation' - Janet Jackson Then I couldn't decide on a fifth one. I tentatively chose 'White Room' by the KLF, even though I absolutely despise the B side. I think I'd actually take a personally mixed cd of a bunch of different stuff. No idea why I found it so interesting to compile my list - it isn't as though I'm going to have time to decide what music to bring in anticipation of being stranded on an island. Besides which my batteries would die pretty fast anyway - assuming I did bring a cd player and it survived whatever crash landed me on the island. A similar question came up in the quiz LA and I shared - what three items would you bring? Forget the music - I'd bring a generator, an extension cord and a giant searchlight. HELP!!! I'm having a lazy day today - thus my ability to update my site :) Sorry I couldn't think of something more interesting to write about - but when I've got the time, I better use it! |
