    I might regret this

    Thanks for the suggestions of favourite books - keep ‘em coming!

    Today I decided to extend the idea beyond the realm of books, and added a whole new section to my site: The Great Favourite Things Experiment! You can still suggest your favourite book, but you can suggest your favourite anything-else too (either in the comments of these blog entries or on the Favourite Things page), and I will attempt to experience them all. Movies, plays, religious sects, martial arts… use your imagination!

    Despite my aversion to web pages that play music, I was sorely tempted to have These Are a Few of My Favourite Things from The Sound of Music playing in the background. In the end I settled for a picture of Julie Andrews.

    Other songs that seemed appropriate were I’d Do Anything from Oliver!, and I’m Clearly a Nutcase Who Hasn’t Thought This Through Properly from La Traviata.

    Now, make your suggestions. Let’s have some fun with this!

    As great as the “favourite things” page is, how about a short summation of your experience with them?

    Kouros, anything I’ve made any progress on in that list is a link to a page with more details. See ‘A big stupid list’, ‘Scouting’, ‘Vanilla Ice Cream Monster Munch’ and ‘Vanilla Coke’.
