fleetfootmike"So, say you were meeting a new person--blind date, new friend, who knows. And you wanted them to have some idea of what kind of person you are, and who you are. But you can't actually tell them in so many words. Instead, you have to give them a box, with a dozen things in it for them to look at/read/listen to/taste/whatever. "What would you put in the box? And a copy of your journal or a link to your LJ would be the same thing as just telling them directly, yourself, so that's not allowed."
Now, that said, also:
"What one thing would you add to the box to represent me or my tastes?"
In no particular order:
1. A copy of Fleetwood Mac "Rumours" Off The Record rock score (lets get the predictable one out of the way right away!).
2. Guinevere, my white Ibanez Les Paul electric guitar
3. A picture of Anne and James
4. A box set of 5 miniatures of various obscure single malt whiskies.
5. A copy of Phoenix's "Into The Fire" CD
6. The Buffy The Vampire Slayer Season 1 DVD box set
7. Gael Baudino's "Gossamer Axe"
8. Wisden Cricket Almanac for 2004
9. O'Reilly's "Apache Cookbook" textbook
10, O'Reilly's "Mac OS X Panther - The Missing Manual" textbook
11. The 'South Beach Diet' book.
12. Will Eisner's "Comics and Sequential Art"
