Friday's Quizzlet: Raiders Of The Lost Backbone.

Appetizer: Name 2 things you do that you consider beneficial to your health.
If you live in Boston, you've been to Haymarket. "Caahn on the caawb! Foaah fer a dollaah!" In addition to being a T-Stop, it's an open air collection of farm stands which are assembled late every Thursday night and remain until early Saturday evening. It's primarily composed of fruit stands but there's a flower guy who looks like Frank Stallone, a row of fish stands the stench of which would make Quint's eyes water and it's the only game in town if you like to watch Asians fight over rotten kumkwats. Anyway, once or twice a month I go down there on Saturday morning and buy bags of carrots, apples and celery. I fire up my juicer like Jay Kordich and the aforementioned combination makes for a lovely, energizing bevvie chock full of vitamin C, potassium and Absolut. That still leaves 1 more thing, huh? OK - #2: actually leaving my apartment to walk to Haymarket.

Soup: If you made a New Year's resolution, how's it going so far?
My New Year's resolution was to, over the next 12 (well, 10.5 now) months, to complete all of the half-finished websites I have floating around out there. There's the dog sweater pattern site, the boston interior designer site, the halloween site, the personal injury attorney site, the free condom site, the boston bar site, the cigar humidor site, the mesothelioma site and about 5 others. So yeah, as you can see it's going wicked-well.

Salad: Name something that has happened lately that bothers you.
Don't get me started. First off - Trump fired Danny last week! He was the only one on the college team with any creativity, whatsoever. Then Brigitte went to America with Foofie-Foofie, leaving her poor fiancee Matteo with little more than a broken heart and some proscuitto. And to top it all off, Da Brat is the only Surreal mansion resident who got a VH1 development deal. And I thought that Tsunami shit made for a bad week.

Main Course: What is your favorite quote, and who said it?
I just covered this last week. So I'll provide my second favorite instead - from the movie Rushmore. It's funny cause it's true:

"But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you." -Herman Blume (Bill Murray).



Dessert: What do you collect?
I collect MP3s, DVDs and emotional baggage. I'll have you know that I once earned a collector's badge in Boy Scouts for my sensational photo album full of Raiders of the Lost Ark trading cards which I still have. Complete set. The cards are in perfect condition and as I'm writing this I'm slowly realizing they are probably worth something. Which is good - because the admission that I still have this childhood artifact in my room will likely force me to start paying for sex.
