Good idea morning

Suggest to me:

1. A movie
2. A book
3. A musical artist, song, or album
4. A LiveJournal group or user not on my friends list
5. Something to do in the next two months [though my plate is pretty full already]

prog: M uses the Spanish words caliente and picante when she wants to specifically refer to a food's temperature-heat or spice-heat (respectively) and that's so handy that I'll start doing it myself, I bet. Ditto.

1. My Neighbors the Yamadas, Studio Ghibli
2. I can't come up with something off the top of my head that's both good and you haven't read already.
3. Moby, We Are All Made of Stars
4. starfallz
5. File your taxes early :)

BTW, I enjoyed the fact that Japanese uses atsui or atatakai for temperature-heat and karai for spice-heat, but I suppose the Spanish is more convenient since it's the US's unofficial second language.

Never heard of the Ghibli film. . . can borrow at some point? And since you're the third (actually first, if you count when Animal Rights first came out) recommendation for Moby I've gotten lately I'll clearly have to look into his stuff.

Yeah, I've got it on DVD, it's region 2 so you'd want to play it on a computer, but it has English subs. I'm not sure whether you'd appreciate it or not, it's a series of vignettes about Japanese family life. But yeah, I'll try to get it to you at some time, or Lisa and I will show it on our region-free player.

I've found that everything I've heard by Moby I either love or hate, so make sure to grab a few tracks before making a decision :)
