a big thank you for those that played trivia! i have taken a long hiatus from trivia-sking well cause basically i dont have time to do it at work. oh well. such is life. i'll try to be alittle more diligent. i would like to wish davide a happy 147th birthday. his roof party was fun as was meeting him for drinks and dinner the day before. i always wondered about those who had to have a drink to "wind down" from work, thinking them alcoholics. but when i am now faced with 8 hour days in a cubicle farm, i wonder how this kind of existence doesnt drive everyone into a drunked stupor, topped off with a little office killing spree. its not that i condone such violent acts, but i understand. so without further ado:
1. athens, ga
2. college station, tx
3. coral gables, fl
4. waco, tx
5. providence, ri
6. cincinnatti, ohio
7. philadelphia, pa
8. wellesley, ma
9. athens, oh
10. houston, tx
pink - coincidentally me and Live in Lady saw pink and butch walker (lead singer of marvelous 3) for free up here in the nyc
alex karev, cristina yang, george o'malley, meredith grey, isobel stevens
others: preston burke, miranda bailey, derek "mcdreamy" shephard, addison shephard, richard webber
i'll think up some more trivia later tonight.

ps- almost forgot...the song title is from nelly's - ride with me

Yo, Salt, I looked around, and I couldn't believe this
well hopefully i'll be starting my unicef job on monday. sound like a lot of govt crap that i dont want to deal with on a daily basis. i sort of stumbled on one question in my interview, tho. first off the lady did not speak english well. not well at all. she asks me this convoluted question about canoe trips, fingerbanging, and walruses. which she had to repeat twice before the other interviewer jumped in and repeated it in english. it had something to do with memos and writing memos. i just sat there and stared at them...drooling a little, then i started to masturbate and screaming about walruses. so i left a good impression. well, enough about me.
the answers:
1. skin
2. experimental prototype community of tomorrow
3. 1990: dances with wolves
1993: schindler's list
1994: forrest gump
1998: shakespeare in love
saving private ryan was up the same year as shakespeare in love, and driving miss daisy had won in 1989. nice tries for everyone.
more? okay...
1. what is the most recent duo that the winner for best actor and best picture came from the same movie?
2. what tv show has won the most emmy's since the 1999-2000 season for best drama series (prime time emmys)
3. who was the last person to win new artist of the year, best album, and best record?
well that covers all the entertainment categories, so i'll throw one in for all of you non-fun people.
extra. what is the next term in this series?
