Snurb — Friday 10 February 2006 19:12

Heh. I've been tagged by Jean, who'd herself been tagged by Mel, I think. So, in the blogosphere's best version of a not-for-profit pyramid scheme, lessee:

Four jobs I've had:

  1. Listening into Soviet Red Army transmissions in Eastern Germany, from the West German border
  2. Hardware import agent
  3. Helpdesk dude (these two both for VillageTronic when they were still doing Amiga hardware)
  4. Translator

Four movies I can watch over and over:

  1. Le Grand Bleu / The Big Blue (3.5-hour version, natch)
  2. To Have and Have Not (the blueprint for Casablanca, but with Lauren Bacall ... purr ...)
  3. The Unbearable Lightness of Being
  4. The Fifth Element

(What, no music question? What's wrong with you people?)
Four CDs I wouldn't want to live without:

  1. King Crimson - Red
  2. Yes - Yessongs
  3. echolyn - mei
  4. Banco del Mutuo Soccorso - Io Sono Nato Libero

Four places I've lived:

  1. Hannover, Germany
  2. King's College, St Lucia, Brisbane (ugh - for three months only, thank dog)
  3. Taringa, Brisbane
  4. Indooroopilly, Brisbane

Four TV shows I love:

  1. Northern Exposure (now out on DVD, people!)
  2. Babylon 5
  3. The West Wing (yes, I know, Jean likes it too...)
  4. Black Books

(Add SBS World News if we're counting non-fiction...)

Four places I’ve vacationed:

  1. Peregian Beach, Queensland
  2. Sevilla, Spain
  3. Rhodos, Greece
  4. Boston, Massachusetts

Four of my favourite dishes:

  1. Bul-go-gi (Korean stir-fry type thing)
  2. Massaman curry (Thai hot, of course)
  3. My home-made pasta bake, with oodles of anchovies
  4. As much Queensland shellfish as I can get my hands on

Four sites I visit daily:

  1. Robert Fripp's diary on DGMLive
  2. Google
  3. QUT Diary
  4. This one...

Four places I’d rather be right now:

  1. On a beach on the Sunshine Coast
  2. Visiting my mum on Ibiza
  3. At Ann's place
  4. At the post-election party where John Howard acknowledges defeat

Four people I tag:

  1. Michelle ('cos she didn't respond to Mel's tag)
  2. Jo
  3. Alex (who is not me)
  4. And as our international wildcard: Sid
