71. I become shy in crowds.
72. The words marriage/engagement/Las Vegas have left the lips of 5 guys, in reference to me.
73. I play a mean game of Battleship. No, really, bring it on, 'cause you're goin' DOWN (with your battleship and cruiser and...)!
74. My best friend and I have taken off our shirts in the late night hours and hung out of a car on a busy, drunken street, in the name of public radio. (No *really* there is a connection there...)
75. I DJ'd a radio show on a community radio station for 6 years. It was called chicknrock and it was all about *girl* artists.
76. I have had my portrait done in chalk, on Montmartre, in Paris.
77. My fav. visual artists are Henri de Toulouse Lautrec and Escher.
78. Catch-22 is my all-time fav. book. It'll make you laugh, it'll make you cry. Who needs homonal fluctuations to be manic?
79. Baking is in my genes (Although, they haven't precisely identified the chromosomal location of that trait, yet-I can tell you I have a kick-ass copy.)
80. When I visit my brother, he always welcomes me with: "Here's some blankets, here's a couple towels, oh, and here's the chocolate..."

Re: 77: Escher? As in Mauritus Cornelius Escher? IMNSHO He has got to be be THE most talented artist ever... the complexity of his work, the depth... just amazing.
I know there are more popular pictures, like his awesome teselations (sp?), the architectural enigmas and the hand drawing the hand etc... but the moment's item has to be the one of the fish, under the water, the leaves on the surface and the reflection of the trees... that is so simple and yet so deep.
*rummages on Google*
Aha, "Three Worlds" - 1955 Lithograph from the M.C. Escher official website.
You know where there's a game of online battleships?
Mmm, yes. That would be my lovely Escher. And Three Worlds is, in fact, especially good; I agree.
my girlfriend knocked over an expensive bottle of bordeaux on the steps below montmartre...
What a lovely, cultured, group of bloggers...
I like this project. I might try to replicate this meme on my lj. It's funny, the number of "scandalous" things we have done that I have conveniently forgotten up until now! ;)
AH, good. I'm glad you're taking the public airing of our frivolous adventures, well.
Love ya, Sz.
Ah Paris, you lucky ducky.
