Requested by shadadukal. I'm only including anime where I've actually watched more than one episode. Otherwise, I'd have even more Yoko Kanno songs on here. ;)

( Includes links to samples. )

Requested by starlightmoonla. This was hard to narrow down to five. While there are other TV theme songs I really do like, I decided to go with themes that I pretty much never wanted to skip through. These also always got me excited to watch the show. I almost included anime theme songs, but then I'd never be able to narrow this list down to five. This is a list of live action TV themes, but if anyone wants to know the anime list, let me know. :)

All the cool kids are doing it.

Comment to this post with a subject for a top five (ships, songs, books, etc) you would like to see my answer. I will post my answers in a separate entry. Be as specific or as broad as you'd like.

Geez, you really want me to do this? This is far from a definitive list. I could find someone new to like tomorrow! Just think of this as 5 songs each by 5 artists I really like. ;)

Dear Santa... Dear Santa, This year I've been busy! Last week I saved a busload of nuns in Angola (326 points). In January I bought porn for hollywoodgrrl (10 points). In September I farted in an elevator (-6 points). In August I gave raspberry_splat a wet willie, then I took it back (-5 points). In February I ruled Iran as a kind and benevolent dictator (700 points). Overall, I've been nice (1025 points). For Christmas I deserve a Pony Slaystation 3! Sincerely, rhoboat

If you want commentary on aspects of any vid I've made, post a comment. Let me know if there are particular questions you'd like me to answer, choices you'd like to talk about, or elements of the vid you'd like me to expound on (favorite moments, etc.).

Although I'm afraid I'm gonna sound like Buffy at the end of S3: "Fire bad. Tree pretty." ;)

The one thing I don't really do is code. I think he most I've done is stuff for my old graphing calculator and a bit of Lingo for Macromedia Director ages ago.

I also find it amusing that I'm only about half dumb/dork/awkward... whatever that's supposed to mean.

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 4-7 sentences on your LJ along with these instructions.
5. Don't you dare dig for that "cool" or "intellectual" book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest (unless it's too troublesome to reach and is really heavy. Then go back to step 1).
6. Tag five people.

Um, the nearest book is a phone book. I don't think that counts. Okay... the next nearest book. None under that pile of Doctor Who and David Tennant DVDs... Um, these Buffy Season 8 Comics don't have that many pages. Oh, okay, here's one.

It's from We Band of Angels: The Untold Story of American Nurses Trapped on Bataan by the Japanese by Elizabeth M. Norman. My dad's a WWII history buff, and this was one of the books he'd read. Since I'm going into nursing, I wanted to read this. Haven't managed more than a couple chapters though. Anyway, on with the meme.

About six thousand people turned out at Lockhart High School Stadium in Texas to greet Eunice Hatchitt; the local congressman, Lyndon Baines Johnson, presented her with keys to the city.  In Exeter, Pennsylvania, hundreds of Ann Bernatitus's neighbors gave her a testimonial dinner and a wristwatch.  The people of Big Sandy, Texas, held a reception for Lucy Wilson, then went out and bought her a new wardrobe, which she badly needed.  Lucy was so grateful, she wore everything handed to her, including the size-sixteen dresses that hung like tents on her seventy-pound frame.

After their leaves were over, the women returned to the war-bond and recruiting drives.  They made speeches, posed for photographs, gave interviews, christened new ships and accepted honoraria.  Few of the nurses, if any, relished this attention.  In fact, tired as they were and racked with doubt, they wanted anonymity, not celebrity.  But no one protested, no one felt she could say no.

Okay, that was 8 sentences, but I think it made more sense to leave that last one in there.  =)  I really ought to get going on this book. I  just know I'm gonna be a big puddle at times, though. :]
