Wow! That's two weeks I've
Wow! That's two weeks I've missed ofCheddar X! Double dose this time; actually a triple dose since this weeks is double sized already.
1. What's the best advice you've ever gotten?
Hmm... Probably that if you ever doubt God's will, after having gone to the Bible and gotten the counsel of godly friends, to take a baby step in the direction you're contemplating. As long as you're praying for God to direct your path and for his wisdom, he won't let you get too far in the wrong direction.
2. What is the best thing you've ever found?
That I've ever found? I tend to think blogging is pretty good, as is the software from
StarDock, and Real Alternative (see the post below). Oh, did you mean a tangible object? Not sure. Probably the book
Rich Dad, Poor Dad.
3. What three words describe your blog?
Intermittent. BJU student.
4. What was the most recent thing you did that seemed like a good idea at the time but later events proved otherwise?
Not sure, sorry. If something comes to me, I'll edit this.
5. What two celebrities would you most like to see fight to the death?
Michael Jackson and the head of the National Organization of Women. The womanliest man and the manliest women.
6. What do you think is the best thing about the internet? What's the worst?
I love being able to know virtually
anything in seconds. On the other hand, I hate the sluts who try to get me to view their naked bodies. Just leave me alone for crying out loud.
And now, this week:
1. What's your favorite/least favorite movie?
Aw, I hate this question. There are a lot of good movies. I like pretty much anything made by Pixar, and Shrek. My least favorite is easy to pick out: Inspector Gadget 2, a Disney straight-to-video disaster. Awful, awful, awful. Not fit for human consumption.
2. What's the best movie-adaptation of a book?
Um... Lord of the Rings is the only one that comes to mind...
3. What movie makes you cry?
I don't cry when I watch movies; I tend to disconnect myself more than that. The scene in The Fellowship of the Ring after Gandalf "dies" is touching though.
4. What movie do you watch to cheer you up?
I don't know; usually if I'm feeling sad, I'll do something at my computer, get my mind off of it. Or else I go feel sorry for myself for a while, then kick myself and get doing something worthwhile.
5. Any amusing stories involving movies or the movie theater?
Not really. I've never been to a movie theatre (parental restriction, and now a BJU restriction).
6. Would you rather go to the theater or stay home and watch a movie?
I guess stay at home :-)
7. Are you more awed by a good plot or special effects?
Plot, definitely. Although the effects have to back up the plot; I can't watch the original series of Star Trek without giggling at the pitiful effects. But OTOH, Enterprise has great fx, but lousy plot and actors/characters, as did Voyager before it. That's hard to overcome. DS9 was the best--a good mix of fx and a great story.
8. Who is your favorite/least favorite actor/actress?
Another one of those hated questions. I like Allison Mack, who plays Chloe on Smallville (I know, not a movie; deal with it). Least favorite actress would have to be Kristen Kruek, who plays Lana Lang on Smallville. (Die Lana! Die!) Favorite Actor: Lots of possibilities here: John Glover or Michael Rosenbaum, Lionel and Lex Luthor respectively on Smallville, a number of actors on DS9 and ST: TNG; Hanks isn't bad. Good actors aren't hard to find. Neither are bad ones; I don't remember the names of the ones I make fun of.
9. What's your favorite cult movie?
Cult movie? You scary. I don't watch Jim Jones' home videos.
10. Matrix Revolutions, worth the wait or WTF?
See 5 & 6. I haven't even see Revisited yet.
*sigh of relief*
