John Scalzi has a journal entry (with a mighty cute cat picture, too) where he's asking for some suggestions on five things. here are my choices to answer his five queries:
1. A movie: The Station Agent, not out for home viewing yet, try to catch it at a theatre. if not, snatch the DVD or video up as soon as possible.
2. A book: Bangkok 8, by John Burdett. detective fiction as you haven't experienced it before. set in Thailand, Buddhist detective, action, corruption, ambiance. best book i read last year.
3. Music: any album by Keb' Mo'. jazzy blues, bluesy jazz, very cool dude all around.
4. AOL Journaler not yet on JMS' sidebar: Blackblog. coffywoman in California is a many-splendored woman: a BurningMan participant, vegan, political progressive, techie.
5. Something to do for next two months: take up cross country skiing, if you continue to have a snowy winter. the world's best exercise, great way to experience nature in the winter, burns up so many calories you can eat all the cookies and hot chocolate you want when you come off the trail!
These are great questions for the months of january and february, i'd like more suggestions for all these things myself!

Oooh, with that endorsement, Bangkok 8 just got to the head of my TBR list.
awww! <blush> I'm flattered by your endorsement of my blog! Of course, I've been so discombobulated it seems I've nothing much of interest to post these days! Do you X-country ski?? Whew, what a workout! What's on the recommended list in the bluesy jazz and jazzy blues genres??
