Sometimes I wonder if I even have a job
Top 5 Pink Floyd Albums:
1. Wish You Were Here
2. The Wall
3. Dark Side of the Moon
4. Animals
5. Meddle
I'm a fan of the Roger Waters era, but it is only because I haven't listened to the Syd Barrett and post-Syd era stuff enough. It is very likely that Piper At The Gates of Dawn or Saucerful of Secrets could replace Meddle at the bottom of that list, but I can't think of more than a couple of tracks from the both of them. The first four are pretty solidified in their placings though.
Top 5 Drinks That Aren't Water:
1. Beer (see next Top 5)
2. Club Soda
2. Jim Beam
4. Orange Juice
5. Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster
I like beer to the extent that if I could drink it all the time without being both indisposed and/or destroying my liver, I probably would. Since I basically can't do that (having a permanent hangover would suck), there are another 4 items. I have two number 2 drinks because if I am having a drink, my hand gravitates to the Club, whereas if I am having a Drink, I usually prefer to get Beamed up. The PGGB at the bottom there is a complicated drink that does not fall into the category of "girly" or "feminine" because I am the only one I know in Alberta that knows how to make it, and that puts me in charge of categorization, not you.
Top 5 Beers:
1. Waterloo Dark
2. McNally's Stout
3. Granville Island
4. Alexander Keith's
5. Labatt Blue
One could make the argument that Waterloo Dark and McNally's Stout are almost the same beer, but I say they are not, because they taste almost-imperceptibly different, and because Dark comes in a much cooler bottle with no neck. Granville Island is also really good because it is dirt cheap (about 7 dollars for a six-pack) and doesn't taste like either cedar or butt.
Top 5 Metallica Albums:
1. Master of Puppets
2. Black Album/Self-titled
3. S & M
4. ...And Justice For All
5. Acoustic Metal
Again, some contention in the 5th place spot, since I had trouble deciding between Load (Metallica at their least metallic) and St. Anger (their hardest album that I like, since I consider the hardest one, Kill 'Em All, to be shite). Then I remembered the bootleg album I have made up of concerts Metallica did with a bunch of other random metalheads in which they play mostly acoustic instruments. The version of Four Horsemen done with a blues harp is of particular interest.
Top 5 Comics:
Oh come on. Can you honestly expect to pare this down to five?
Top 5 Touchy-Feely-Relationship Movies (aka Chick Flicks) I Will Watch Without Complaint:
1. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
2. Amelie
3. Chasing Amy
4. High Fidelity
5. Free Enterprise
(6.) Run, Lola, Run
(So I cheated. It's my list; lea' me 'lone.) Amelie used to be pretty high on this list, but Eternal Sunshine basically destroys it. The romance-headtrip double-punch is a contender, to be sure. (Run, Lola, Run also packs the same double-punch, but it's more headtrip than romance, and also in German, so it sits at an honorarily-mentionable number 6.) Free Enterprise, while at number 5, is also deserving of special note, simply because it has William Shatner doing a one-man musical hip-hop version of Hamlet, and also Logan's Run satire.
Top 5 Things That Aren't Edible:
1. Cherry-flavoured rocks
2. Glass shards
3. Imagination
4. Electricity
5. Beets
If nature had intended for us to eat beets, they would be both not purple and come with steaks attached.
