are you on glarnac 7?

[9mil]

i enjoy the fact that i'm writing this a second time. not.

so... as i was going through my old entries, i decided to change/update/remind you all that they existed.

a bit back i made a list of quotes from movies/books/songs.

the bolded ones have already been answered, and next to them, italicized and in parenthesis are the title/and or artist/author/who said what to who when.
Don't tease me about my hobbies, I don't tease you about being an asshole. (Garden State. Mark to Largeman in front of Albert's ark.)

Cause America does and if America does it's so.

In a single day and night of misfortune, Atlantis dissappeared beneath the ocean depths.

I lied to you all those years ago, Cecil-did you never know it?-I betrayed your precious trust. He was my lover from the very beginning. We had nothing to fear, you see-I lost the Admiral's child when I was fourteen and Dr. Bill told me I could expect no more. It was safe to be stallion to a barren mare, quite safe. There is a bed behind you, Cecil, my bed, the bed of state. Look at it. Look at it and see us lying there night after night, his body swelling in mine till I wept with ecstasy. Does Mildred weep when you mount her, my friend-does she? No! You shall not turn away from this. You tell me I am not free to die-so be it! I will play the Virgin Queen for you a little longer. But remember this: I was always his slut and I'm glad of it. You have served Dudley's whore and you will serve her to the end of your days. Sick, crippled, deaf or blind, you will die in my service, with a chain of office round your scrawny neck-I swear it!

Everybody finished the song at different times. At last, only the Weasley twins were left singing along to a very slow funeral march.

Let's do some carnage!

When I was your age, television was called "books." (The Princess Bride, the grandfather to his grandson)

So let's abandon that track and leave our fathers fighting in a sack cause we are way too wise-assed for that. (The Shins. Fighting in a Sack)

Don't question my authority.

Who am I, that you should love me?

Whores don't deserve second chances.
somebody once "tagged" me, forcing me to make a list of my top 6 favorite songs, then tag 6 more people who'd have to do the same. i've changed it to 666.

SONGS:

6. Saint Simon. The Shins. as you all know, i lurve the shins, and i hate the god. so, a song that combines my favorite band with my favorite topic of discussion, besides poop noises. very beautifully written, and *cough*look at my icon*cough* "mercy's eyes are blue, and when she places them in front of you, nothing holds a roman candle to the solemn warmth you feel inside of you."

5. Ready for Anything. Chris Thile. besides the fact that this totally way hot mandolin player is from nickel creek, he wrote every word and every note, and played every instrument, on the album which this song appears, Deceiver, his fourth solo venture. "i forget the difference between being in love and being familiar with something i hope i'm above. hear i lie enough and it cuts like the gospel, when you're half awake, no mistake is impossible."

4. DARE. Gorillaz. this way cool anime foursome always has the hooks, and they grab. murdoc, 2D, russel and noodle pumped this one off of Demon Days like a little piece of metal in a 9 millimeter. "you've got to press it on you. you chose to pick it up. that's what you do baby, hold it down, DARE."

3. Helena. Nickel Creek. you can never slip nickel creek in too much. off their third album Why Should the Fire Die? it's become a bit obvious that nickel creek has, well, grown up. each song is power packed as always and the lyrics are fresh and dangerous. "you look so sweet waiting for me while i wait for her to give me any reason to leave don't waste your pretty sympathy she'll always be just fine."

2. Myxomatosis. (Judge, Jury & Executioner.) Radiohead. it's radiohead. if you didn't notice, i literally listened to them for a month straight. they're british, indie, but still known, known, but still awesome. awesome. and indie. formed in '89, and known as one of the world's most important bands of today. off the album Hail to the Theif, the first track of which held the same position in the previous tag. "my thoughts are misguided and a little naive i twitch & salivate like with myxomatosis you should put me in a box or you should put me down i got myxomatosis i got myxomatosis "now no one likes a smart arse." "but we all like stars.""

1. On the Bus Mall. The Decemberists. this song. psh. it's. gah. it lacks words. well... words that describe it properly. off their third full length lp, Picaresque, the guitar, drum, bass, and accordian stylings of this band are only climbing higher to god. i mean GOd. "your parents were anxious, your cool was contagious at the old school. you left without leaving a note for your grieving sweet mother while your brother was so cruel. and here in the allies your spirits were rallied as you learned quick how to make a fast buck. in bathrooms and ballrooms, on dumpsters and heirlooms, we bit our tongues, sucked our lips in to our lungs 'til we were falling. such was our calling."

BOOKS:

6. The Westing Game. Ellen Raskin. i initially read this when i saw that my brother was reading it, he for school, me cause i was cool like aid. i read it again in 6th grade, and actually had a project that involved playing the stock market that went along with it. it's a great murder/mystery with a great main character, though there really is no main character. despite and because of its younger reading level, it's way fun to read, and i tend to do it a lot. "No one was in the kitchen of Shin Hoo's Resteraunt when the bomber set a tall can labeled "Monosodium glutamate" behind similar cans on a shelf. The color-striped candle would burn down to the fuse at six-thirty; whoever was working there would be at the other end of the room. No one would be hurt."

5. Empire Falls. Richard Russo. i purchased this book on my barnes & noble orgy because of a song of the same name by Chris Thile. it's a truthful account of living in a small town, divorce, and facing the facts of life. miles roby is a middle-aged man in the middle of a divorce in the middle of a plot that's slowly stealing his life in the middle of figuring out what happened between his now dead mother and an unknown man one summer as they vacationed on martha's vineyard. "For Janine, at forty, orgasms were a new thing ans she damn near lost her mind every time she had another, or when she contemplated how close she'd come to going her whole life without experiencing that singular, incomparable, tingling, explosive, mind-bending thrill."

4. Legacy. Susan Kay. queen elizabeth (the first, and as far as i recognize the only) was a woman ruling in a time where woman did not do so. she was innovative, she was smart, she was bitter, and she was wanted by every male at court (except those rumored to lord's lord) going through her majesty's life from her wandering father King Henry VIII, and her numerous mothers that tended to lose their heads easily, to her days in court, having finally made it there, and then faced by her once brother-in-law and his fleet. "He turned the rose basket upside down and emptied the contents over her; Mrs Ashley blanched with horror as the Queen sat up. 'You bastard!' He caught Elizabeth's hand, kissed and said with an impertinence that was almost suicidal, 'So that's what makes us such a perfect pair!--I've often wondered.'... 'Get these damned things off me,' said Elizabeth when the door had closed, 'and if just one of them pricks me, you insufferable pig, you will be extremely sorry.' He smiled. 'Madam, if I ever prick you it won't be with a rose.'"

3. Fight Club. Chuck Palahntuk. no introducion can be worthy enough. it's about anarchy and blood and the little voices in your head. "The overhead announcement, prepare to evacutate bowels in ten, in nine, eight, seven. Prepare to evacuate soul in ten, in nine, eight. Chloe's splashing through the ankle-deep backup of renal fluid from her failed kidneys. Death will commence in five. Five, four. Four. Around her, parasitic life spray paints her heart. Four, three. Three, two. Chloe climbs hand-over-hand up the curdled lining of her own throat. Death to commence in three, in two. Moonlight shines through the open mouth. Prepare for the last breath, now. Evacuate. Now. Soul clear of body. Now. Death Commences. Now."

2. Pride and Prejudice. Jane Austen. let's face it. i'm a sucker for the classics. and damnit all to shit, this one's good. it's the story of elizabeth (yes, i totally have a thing for that name) bennet, a smart girl in low high society, with a mother who has no reign on her tongue, and five sisters, out of which she only cares for one. it's about dealing with a society who's to stuffy to care, and being prejudiced against those you accuse of being prejudiced. and it's a romance. "It's a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife. However little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his first entering a neighbourhood, this truth is so well fixed in the minds of the surrounding families, that he is considered as the rightful property of some one or other of their daughters."

1. The Queen of Attolia. Megan Whalen Turner. eugenides is a thief, attolia is a queen, and one night, attolia catches eugenides. what good is a thief who can't steal anything? and what good is a queen who can't seem to do anything about a thief? "Eugenides looked at her without expression. He turned his head to go on looking at her over his shoulder as he was led away. She wondered if he guessed what punishment she had in mind. Let the Eddisian babble about offending the gods, Attolia thought, sitting back in her throne. They were not her gods, and she would not worship them."

MOVIES:

6. The Count of Monte Cristo. based on the book by Alexandre Dumas, it's about a young man betrayed, accused of a crime he did not commit, at the end of Emperor Napoleon's reign. after suffering for over a decade, he seeks his vengeance through cunning schemes and plots. with guy pearce, richard harris, and james caviezal. Jacopo: "I swear on my dead relatives - and even on the ones who are not feeling too good - I am your man forever! "

5. Two Weeks Notice. awww... i love romances. sandra bullock AND hugh grant. he's a CEO of a large company that's about to tear down a community. she's an environmental lawyer who will do anything to save her home. anything. after a year of no sleep and interruptions from life because of "work" she's sick of being her bosses nanny, deciding things from his wardrobe to his divorces, and after two weeks, she's done with him. right. George Wade: "Before you came into my life I could make all kinds of decisions now I'm addicted I have to know what you think. What do you think?" [holds up cuff links] Lucy Kelson: "I think your the most selfish human being on the planet." George Wade: "Well that's just silly. Have you met everybody on the planet?"

4. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. ok. just because number six was very near the biggest dissappointment of my life, doesn't mean this wasn't a great movie. between the score and alfonso's beautiful vision, i'm in love. and, this was my fav. book of the series. so. there. dan radcliffe and emily watson make an awesome cuteness, btw. Harry: "Nice punch." Hermione: "Thanks."

3. Grosse Pointe Blank. two words. john cusack. hi. john cusack with guns and sunglasses and eighties music and a 10 year reunion and an old flame that's a dj. hey baby. john cusack and minnie driver in this romance/comedy/j.c.'s an assasin woot. Marty: "They all have husbands and wives and children and houses and dogs, and, you know, they've all made themselves a part of something and they can talk about what they do. What am I gonna say? 'I killed the president of Paraguay with a fork. How've you been?'"

2. Runaway Jury. repeat those two words. john cusack. and rachel weisz. tantalyzing and awesome. based roughly on the book of the same name by john grisham. also with gene hackman and dustin hoffman. since when are juries for sale? p.s. this probably ranks as one of my most watched movies. Rankin Fitch: " ...the thing of it is, I don't give a shit. What's more... I never have."

1. Garden State. written, directed, starred in and musically produced by zach braff. hullo. and natalie portman's in it. it's the story of andrew largeman, a 26 year old actor who's been on some form of medication for depression since he could remember. and he decides to go off those meds when he goes back to where he's from, new jersey, for his mother's funeral. there he meets sam, who takes him away from the numbness he's been a part of all those years. Sam: "He's protecting me."..."He's my knight in shining armor."

and... people i'm going to tag that don't have to do this if they don't wish to: Drew, Alli, Dave, Abby, Stanthony, and... Carlybob. WHEE!

that's pretty much it... a much needed guide to this one thing later.
