Though not usually fond of the Meme…
…this one sounded interesting. I ran across the following over at Knittin’ Honey’s place and thought it might make for some rainyday fun…
Are you up to the MeMe challenge? Here’s a different take on the MeMe, whereby you put your answers in the comments section of my blog. When you are through, copy-paste the MeMe to your blog, and I’ll stop by and do the MeMe for you! I’m shamelessly lifting this MeMe from another blogger, without offering them credit. So be it. I will post the answers to everyone’s three questions. . .
A. First, recommend to me:
1. A movie:
2. A book:
3. A musical artist, song, or album:B. Ask me three questions, no more, no less. You may ask me anything you want, but I can decline to answer anything which makes me uncomfortable.
C. Copy and paste this in your blog.
I’ve already posted my recommendations and asked my questions over on her site.
Movie: Dogville
Book: The Unconsoled (by Kazuo Ishiguro)
Music: Shawn Colvin (especially Steady On, her first album) or The Jayhawks (what can I say, they may be gone, but they will always have a place in my heart).
Want to see what I asked her? You’ll have to stop over there and check it out…

I LOVE the Jayhawks - but, of course I would since I’m a BIG fan (and a graduate) of the University of Kansas - mascot - the Jayhawks - so I’ve already checked them out. I will most definitely check out the REST of your recommendations. Love your questions, too.

I don’t usually join in with memes, but this does sound fun! My recommendations:
Movie: The Dish
Book: Blackberry Wine by Joanne Harris
Music: Cliff Richard
My questions:
1. What is your favourite memory from childhood?
2. If you could have any job in the world, what would it be?
3. Who do you admire?
Thanks very much for sharing this meme.

Okay - here are my recommendations and questions, now that I have the time:
Movie: Shakespere in Love. One of the few “adult” movies I’ve seen in the last few years. Loved it.
Book: I used to be a huge Stephen King fan and, although I’ve tapered off in recent years, I think his best book was “It.” It scared the bejeezsus out of me.
Music: A local band around NE Kansas that made it semi-big - The Rainmakers (f/k/a Steve, Bob, and Rich). Check ‘em out via a download service. Awesome band. Wish they were still making music. Another big local talent - Kelly Hunt.
My questions:
1. If you could speak another language, which one would you choose and why?
2. What are three of your “guilty pleasures?” You know - the things you’re really embarrassed to admit you like to do for fear of being made fun of (like I’ll readily admit to loving the movie “Grease” - how pathetic is that?).
3. If you didn’t have a knit blog, what kind of blog would you have and why?
