    25 Favorite...

    I enjoy this little exercise, take about 15 minutes and figure out the top 25 people or items in your entertainment world:
    Led Zepplin
    Kubrick
    Alien box set
    Forbidden Planet
    Aerosmith
    War Pigs (song)
    Imagine (IMHO greatest song ever written)
    Burt Lancaster
    Scorsese
    Contact (movie)
    Julie Ann Moore
    David Lean
    Frank Zappa (and all his influence)
    Jack Nicolson
    Pro Football
    R.Heinlein
    the Ventures (first favorite guitar band)
    Live (band)
    Dune (Book)
    Orson Scott Card
    Paul Newman (Mom always dug him, so I got to know his work well!)
    Speilberg
    H.G. Wells
    Tim Burton
    ...Last item, the system I present most of this stuff on.

    Kenny, tough exercise, lol. Not sure anyone's been up to the mental challenge. I know I am not, simply not enough time to devote to it right now. Sorry.

    Interesting idea though

      Sports, music, film, books??? It would be tough enough to rank my favs in each individual category. Mixing them all together would be impossible. They're just different.

      How can I compare baseball to my favorite films? I just can't do it.

        No, I'm not saying to rank them...if I were raking them I'd have Football as my number 1 item, there's no way I could actually rank them either.

          I'll get back to you later on this

          This was my second weekend working, and I think next one will be the same plan; hopefully will be out of the hole, soon. Or the swamp. Whatever.

          This deserves some thought, though.

            Steve Morse

            My HT ofcoarse
            Philips Pronto ( Part of the HT I know, but deserves special mention)

                  Kenny,
                  John Patitucci is a bass player.
                  Excellent jazz musician. I am actually listening to his "On The Corner " cd as I type this.

                    Favorite Song... With a Twist
                    by Thelonious Funk
                    I've got too many favorite songs to have a favorite song. I'm sure that is true about most of us.

                    But I have favortites for certain categories.

                    Favorite Blues Song Performed Live By A White Guy In The 70's That Makes You Laugh, is for instance one of those catagories...

                    Hi,

                    I will be posting some work on my website which will be of great interest to speaker DIY'ers.

                    Your Favorite Female Musicians ?
                    by Herbonbay
                    I've really enjoyed the threads started by Eric ( AKA Thelonious Funk ) regarding the music that we're all currently listening to. After all, the music is what it's all about . Isn't it? 8O So Thanks Eric, I always find myself jotting down a few notes for consideration of future purchases.
