<p>Fiddler on the Roof...brings back so many memories of the musical sophomore year. Great show, but I was sick of it by the time we were finished. Good story, though.</p>

<p>Name: Joe
Location: Georgia
Ethnicity: African-American
Music: Various New Orleans-style jazz bands including but not limited to the Dirty Dozen, Youngblood, and Rebirth. Some hip hop. Jurassic 5, Dilated Peoples, and even a little Talib Kweli here and there. Lots of classical (Mostly Romantic. Baroque sucks!) And whatever random crap happens to be on the oldies station.
Movies: Umm, I don't watch many movies. I anticipate that the H2G2 movie will be my favorite in the future, as long as they don't screw it up.
Television: Twilight Zone, Futurama, Aqua Teen, Family Guy, Red Dwarf, Monty Python, Clerks, Excel Saga
Free Time: Hanging out mostly. Just with friends. No romantic attachments bringing me down. (For reasons why, see music and television sections) I also think I'm funny, so I write stories that aren't. Humorous sci-fi to be exact. Big money in that, I assure you.
Food: Yes please.</p>

<p>Well, TheChocolate Thunder, if the trailer is anything to go by, it's a complete disaster. Marvin looks like an overgrown Japanese tamagotchi; Zaphod is stoned, not cool; the 'sleek running shoe' spaceship looks like a ball... I just hope that there's something redeemable in the movie that they didn't show in the trailers for some reason.

<p>Uh oh, Joe. Are you a fan of zydeco? If so, I'd say our musical interests are definitely in the same family (they're already in the same vein). I've been practically raised on New Orleans zydeco, even though I live nowhere near New Orleans, haha.</p>

<p>Name: Arianna
Location: Palo Alto, CA (Stanford Univ)
Ethnicity: Italian
Music: NOTE: take genre definitions lightly. Alternative Rock, Independent Rock, Emo, Surf Rock, Hard Rock, --> you get the idea, ROCK. But I also like classical, jazz, techno, helllla hip hop and R&B. No country music allowed. Music is my life...I live with my ipod.
Movies: Fight Club, Seven, Memento, The Following, Fight Club, Gattaca, Kill Bill, did I mention Fight Club?
TV: The Daily Show, Iron Chef, Chapelle's Show, Best Week Ever, COOKING NETWORK!!!, I'll admit my guilty pleasure: MTV <em>gulp</em>
Free Time: Running, hanging out with my bestest friends and beyond-awesome boyfriend, ROCK CONCERTS!!!, baking desserts, going to Safeway and looking at desserts, DRIVING - I love cars, partying at Stanford, going on roadtrips, re-organizing everything (yes, it's sad), daydreaming about no more high school!
Food: Anything that can be deemed unhealthy. I have a penchant for Vietnamese, Thai, Japanese (omg omg yum!), and Singaporean. Italian is still my #1 food tho!</p>
