Crap. . . I just wrote this post. . . and now I have to re-write it. . . ok, well, I had this awesome intro to this thread all made up. . . but it got deleted. Essentially, this is a thread to get to know the other Notesommes. . . Kinda quirky things that I thought might be fun. . . so here're the questions. . . feel free to add more if you so wish:
Favorite Book?
What song would you say describes some aspect of you (may be emotional, physical, anything, but is NOT necessarily ur favorite song)? Also, paste the lyrics here. . .
Favorite pair of underwear?
Favorite superhero?
If you could choose when and where you die. . . what would you choose?
Science or Magic?
Do you believe in an afterlife?
Do you prefer Johnny Cash or Elvis Presley? Jimmy Page or Jimi Hendrix?
I think I had some more, but that's all I can remember. . . I guess I'll start:
Book:
I guess Weaveworld, by Clive Barker. It was the first book I read by him. . . I also really like The Great and Secret Show. . . but that's part of a series, so Weaveworld wins out. It's kinda hard to explain what it's about. Essentially there's this great carpet, into which is woven an entire new world. . . kinda sounds stupid, but it's awesome. Like a fairytale for adults (DEFINATELY adults. . . or at least mature young adults, LoL).
Song: To Bid You Farewell, By Opeth. . . The last line of this song is absolutely stunning.
"I am awaiting the sunrise
Gazing modestly through the coldest morning
Once it came you lied
Embracing us over autumn's proud treetops
I stand motionless
In a parade of falling rain
Your voice I cannot hear
As I am falling again
Devotion eludes
And in sadness I lumber
In my own ashes I am standing without a soul
She wept and whispered: "I know..."
We walked into the night
Am I to bid you farewell?
Why can't you see that I try
When every tear I shed
Is for you?"
Undies:
Ummm. . . who WROTE this question??? I dunno, I always wear cotton boxers. . . they're all pretty much the same. But, I like red plaid ones. . . dunno why. . . Or blue ones. . .
Superhero:
SPAWN, without a doubt. . . Such a cool superhero. . . I mean, his costume, his character, his angst, the subject matter. . . he OOZES cool.
Death:
Where to die, huh? Ummmm. . . Either in my lover's arms, with the smell of autumn surrounding me. . . or on top of a mountain, cold wind dulling my senses. . . basically depending on whether I'm single or not, LoL.
S or M?:
I like the IDEA of magic. . . if it was real, I'd like it so much more. . . but since it's not real. . . science, 'cause I can actually DO stuff with it. . . but if magic WERE real. . . oh there would be SUCH a reckoning!!!
Afterlife:
Yes, yes I do. . .
JvsE;PvsH?:
Johnny Cash. . . THE man in black; Jimmy Page. . . just 'cause I like his material more. . .
Well, that's about it. . . i hope it was mildly amusing/interesting. I didn't want to make the questions too personal. . . or too cliche. . .
