Preference Personnelle
Sunday, October 27
 
Oh, and I just got Tony Hawk 4. The new career mode is great. I certainly miss using the 'perfect balance' cheat code, though. If the other games are any indication, it'll be leaked at some point. I just hope they didn't take it out. The NYT wrote about GTA. Interesting times. MTV uses night-vision technology a lot. "Indie rock and feminism, to me, are, like, the same thing."--some boy. I've just been noticing this while watching 'FM Nation' and being disgusted that the World Series went to a seventh game, thus delaying the airing of this year's Simpsons Halloween episode.

Better late than never (blame it on the blogger hacking), another Friday Five:

1. What is your favorite scary movie?
Probably 'Rosemary's Baby,' though I'm not sure how scary I find it.

2. What is your favorite Halloween treat?
Cider.

3. Do you dress up for Halloween? If so, describe your best Halloween costume.
Not anymore. My best costume was probably teevee painter Bob Ross (for the very young children who may be reading, Bob Ross was sort of like a cross between Stuart Smalley and Thomas Kinkade (the Painter of Light), with an Afro.)

4. Do you enjoy going to haunted houses or other spooky events?
No, not really. I don't like crowds. I also don't like, er... the appearance of something rather than that thing itself.

5. Will you dress up for Halloween this year?
I suppose it's possible.

Linkety-link: Dishonest anti-gun professor resigns, SF bans live rap, Gore Vidal takes a moderate position, Slate writer spills the wine, someone devotes a site to zippo tricks, someone devotes a site to banning dihydrogen monoxide.

Dig this 'stereotypes' photo show, these Zen stories, 1000 blank white cards, some decent starting pages on election methods/voting systems (I was trying to get people interested in the topic the other day--it so didn't work.) and this glossary of poetic terms.

And, in music-biz news, record companies glue cd players shut. Hillary Rosen loses a debate at Oxford, makes the laughable claim that there have been no copy-protected cds released in the U.S.
