I like Alfonso Cuaron. But I watch movies because of the plot and genre, not so much because of directors.

When you name your iPod Touch "Geddy Lee" OK, so I also named my cell phone "Elle Woods" because it is pink. And my car is "Indigo Child". And my condo is "Little Pink House".

Feeling well enough to get through Body Combat, though I was not particularly energetic during it. And yesterday, it was the fact that I felt well enough to make it to and through Eine Kleine Nachtmusik at the symphony last night. I am not a night person. I have a nasty cold that will not.go.away. But I did get to see the symphony play a favorite piece by a favorite composer.

When you write December the 21rst in the European/Latin American/Military way so that you can have it be 21/12

I prefer to know the setlist ahead of time. Especially for more expensive concerts, or for bands that I do not know a lot of their songs.

This year's concert was my first one because it was the first time I was aware they were playing in my city. I thought it would be cool to see my fave songs of theirs performed live- I checked the setlist before to make sure Freewill would be played. I did see many women there. And many kids and teens too.

When you see a street called "Pratt Lane" and you squee. When you want a digital 24-hour clock so that it can say 21:12. OK, so I do want a 24-hour clock everywhere for many unrelated reasons anyway. But still cool.

I am going to see Eine Kleine Nachtmusik tonight. Does that count? And next week, I hope to see Apocalyptica.

I was at the right place at the right time for a good reason. A very cosmic one that reminded me why I was there and why I came from where I come from. I was able to assist someone whom nobody else could have assisted at the time. And everything will be fine. I feel like a hero today.

I got Permanent Waves. Seems accurate for the most part. And Freewill is in it

When the car in front of you has a tag ending in YYN, and you are thinking "hey, if you flip the N sideways, you have YYZ!" And I do know what Red Sector A is all about- and that is one of the reasons why I like that song. I do all 3 parts to Rush songs upon hearing them. Haven't gotten a Rush T-shirt, but I was asked who Rush was when I said I was going to see them on my birthday weekend.

I put non-changing detailed. It is what they are accustomed to. The only remotely spontaneous one of the trio is Alex- but I still think he likes his big show. I wonder if too much change and improptu work would upset Neil. And it would still be a bit out of element for Geddy.

Finally I will admit it: I misheard "A modern day warrior" as "Monday morning" and "The world is" as "No worries" Please understand English is my second language. "ducks and dodges the tomatoes"

I like both "Driven" and "Test for Echo" a lot. And yes, I do like Dog Years

Red Barchetta Limelight

I put Freddy Krueger. Back in my freshman year of college (first semester at least), I spent way too much time playing the Nightmare on Elm Street pinball machine at my school's arcade. Sometimes I would even go on the weekends.

Earthshine. I love science. Only Rush would think of singing about this. Except for perhaps TMBG or Weird Al Yankovic.

Red Sector A is FANTASTIC. And not just because of the theme. The music is great as well. I'd like to see it play live sometime.

It was a tough decision between Fly by Night and Anthem. But I went with Fly by Night because it is just so catchy. I may have heard it before somewhere- whether on the radio, at a restaurant, or somewhere else.

I debuted a new kind of program at my job yesterday. It had good attendance and reviews. So I will continue doing it.

Working Man I was able to tell it was by Rush the first time I heard it. And Neil does a great job of drumming to it in live performances.

Bastille Day. I am a Rose of Versailles nut and would love to make an AMV of this sometime.

Hard to pick between Closer to the Heart and Xanadu. Went with the first one- but Xanadu is awesome as well.

Freewill. Has to be my favorite Rush song with the possible exception of Limelight.

Limelight. It is neck to neck with Freewill for my favorite Rush song period.
