Float my boat


With the page of tens...well, some may not be quite 'ten' and some may be fourteen. There generally isnt a preference indicated by placement in the list...Therefore Ben Affleck should not feel that he has to fight it out with Kevin Smith for my attentions... Similarly, 'Beetroot' should not be aggrieved that I like my new bra better than it.


Weakly ten
This week I am bowing in adoration at:
  • My new friends! aww! hugs!! Not *you* anon.
  • 'A Beautiful Mind' The bio of John Nash, the Russell Crowe film was based on this.
  • 'The Royal Tenenbaums This film was lovely. gentle slightly black comedy, a true ensemble

  • 'Spaced' second serise on dvd. Thanks Marcus!!
  • Beautiful Glasgow Weather sometimes it does stop raining!

  • And slightly smaller boobs


Ten Kewl chunes
You know when theres a song and it just reminds you of a place or a person and you hear it and smile and then it sticks in your head for days at a time? These are mine at the moment.
  • 'Ever' The Lemonheads - reminds me of how it felt to first be in love. The first heady year.
  • 'Freak Scene' Dinosaur Jnr - saw them at the barrowlands in Glasgow bounce!Mosh!
  • 'Jen doesnt like me anymore' Less than Jake - well thats OK, I don't like her either!
  • 'I miss you' Bjork-I loved the sugarcubes, but thats a different story..she has the most amazing voice, like someone heavily institutionalised, who only tells you what you want to hear.
  • 'All or Nothing' Eddi Reader- I love Eddi Reader! fabulous voice.
  • 'Monkeywrench' Foo Fighters - Great middle 8. Take a deep breath and let rip!!
  • 'I hope that I dont fall in love' Tom Waits - because I've already been there and done that. My heart is shattered. Oh alright then.
  • 'All Apologies' Nirvana - You know who you are!
  • 'Miss World' Hole- I just love Courtney. I aspire to Courtney levels of self-preservation.
  • You make me feel like a whore Everclear- who could resist a song with this title.
Ten Kewl Flicks
  • Withnail and I Oh I love the ending. I love screaming all the funny lines when Im drunk and dribbling red wine down my chin from laughing too much. But I love the ending, with Richard E in the park in the rain. its so sad...
  • Jacobs Ladder Im scared now. Everything is a conspiracy and Im scared...
  • Blade Stephen Dorff. dribble. (ahem) right...well, its got vampires. which is good in a disturbing way. vampires = sex in my worryingly-slightly-the-wrong-side-of-goth-book...
  • Happiness *loved* it. loved the ending with the Dog and the teen cum. I realise that has spoilt it for a whole host of people. Sorry, thats what I do, I pre-guess plots as well, and whisper them to whoever is sitting next to me in the cinema.
  • Being John Malko Off the wall and wonderful.
  • Singin' in the rain I know this film backwards I am a gay man.
  • Anything by Kevin Smith hes one funny silent muthafucka...
  • Brief encounter For the sole line, ' I'm feeling so terribly Terribly tired and wretched.
  • Sid and Nancy local boy Gary Oldman, and despite the cheesy ending, halfway through the film, I started to believe i WAS actually just watching Sid.
  • Santa Sangre Crazy Circus shee-yit.

    • 'The book of relevation' - Rupert Thomson. perv!
    • 'A Prayer for Owen Meany' - John Irving - difficult to pick only one John Irving...I think this is my favorite, because it has the requisite wrestlers 'n' bears but its all sad as well.
    • 'Before I say Goodbye'- Ruth Picardie
      oh just 'Waaaaa!' its like a chickflick 'book'. God help me if they ever even contemplate making a film of this.
    • 'Boiling a frog' Christopher Brookmyre
      well obviously the title attracted me, but I then speed-read everything else he has ever written. scottish noir.
    • 'The famished Road' Ben Okri - ahh. well. I read this on holiday one year and just couldnt put it down..its all weird and spiritual and youre never quite sure what is going on. This book is a blessing.
    • anything by Shakespeare. I know this is cheating, but I really cant choose. currently re-reading 'A midsummers nights dream' and am entranced...the beauty of the language just washes over me.

    • one place left!!!
