1. How can I recommend you a book? You've read everything! Hmmm... Try Novel Notes by Jerome K Jerome.

2. See 1 above. Have you read Nigel Williams? He's writing in your general geogeophical direction, anyway.

3. I wish I could remember what it's called, but I can't so I can only describe it. tamaranth has a home-compilation of Christmas music and on it there's a chorus of cats singing. It is one of the most kitsch things I've ever heard and you'll either love it or hate it...

4. Best in Show. I know you're a cat person, but that might even make it better.

5. Muse.

6. Powaqqatsi -- Philip Glass, soundtrack for second Godfrey Reggio 'Qatsi' film.

7. Again, you're going to be way ahead of me here. If you haven't seen http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/astropix.html (Astronomy Picture of the Day) you really should...

Given that my sole knowledge of you is based on your journal, this is going to be tricky. Still, it's a nice meme, so I'll give it a go...

A book
Hrm. I don't read a whole lot of sci-fi, and you seem to have read everything going, but I think you might rather enjoy a kids book called The Phantom Tollbooth, unless you've read it already, of course.

An author
Blergle... I don't read obscure books. It's obvious, but have you read Tom Clancy's stuff? It may not be intellectually challenging stuff, but he does tell good stories.

A song
"Every OS Sucks" by Three Dead Trolls in a Baggie

A movie
Don't watch enough films to suggest anything.

An artist/band
Eep... there really isn't enough crossover between our musical tastes. You might enjoy the output of the Cambridge band Maker, but they've split and you'll have a hard time getting hold of their CD, Objective Perspective. Can that be the CD as well?

A website
Have a look at http://www.pvponline.com.

You'd probably get on with narenek.

I think you should listen to some Fates Warning. You can share some off my PC when I'm in the office ;-)

You could friend middleman, since you met him, and he seems to have been writing a bit more regularly recently.
