From [livejournal.com profile] caerfree (because I saw her list and couldn't help making my own in my head).

Name a CD you own that no-one else on your friends list does:
Greatest Hits Volume VII - The Bilge Pumps

Name a book you own that no-one else on your friends list does:

Lament for the Sleepwalker - Dunstan Thompson

Name a movie you own on DVD/VHS/etc that no-one else on your friends list does:
Otesanek (aka Little Otik or Greedy Guts)

Name a place that you have visited that no-one else on your friends list has:
I had to think long and hard about this one, since I' m not terribly well traveled. And then it hit me! I doubt anyone on my flist has been into the lower caverns at Carlsbad, which require special permits, a ranger or two, and spelunking gear.

*shivers* I remember Little Otik....it scareded meeeeeee!

Then again, most of those films ya'll made me see at the Bijou frightened me some.. ^_~

As for the Bilge Pumps, the files you put on my comp still wouldn't play so when I was cleaning out my computer, they got deleted...I really wanted to hear them too. *pout*

I'd love to own a copy of the poems in the Dunstan Thompson book.^^ They were lovely when you read them to me. Don't even have to own a copy of the book itself, but copies of the poems would do. ^^ I guess now you know what to get me for Xmas,lol.

As for Carlsbad...Hmm... I've always wondered what it was like.

Once we have a proper computer in the house again (I'm on Dad's old laptop/Andrew's senior thesis machine at the moment) I'll see about making a torrent of Bilge Pumps stuff, and maybe a Best Of for the Corsairs (not many songs, since they've specifically asked not to have their albums file shared. I want to pimp them, though).

I've often thought about collecting Thompson's stuff on a website somewhere, but I'm afraid of being sued. His work has never been reprinted, and it's really in danger of being completely forgotten.

Same with Young Heroes in Love, actually (which I considered for this list). I'm the only person I know of with the full series run (#1 signed!), including people who buy and sell comics for a living. It does have a wikipedia page, now, though. And I didn't make it! But I've often thought of scanning the whole (18 issue) series and posting it/torrenting it somewhere.

Mmmm ^^ I'd love to hear them. You know that I love bawdy things and you had given me their albums because they were big bawds.^^

I just wish they'd have played. XD
