[snarfed from tsgeisel. Why am I posting this from home. I’m driving into work today; I have a 7:30 AM CSUN Industry Advisory Board meeting.]

Name a CD you own that no-one else on your friends list does:

Shep Cooke (Shep Cooke). To be truthful, it is actually vinyl that was burned to CD. This was his first album (his second was Concert Tour of Mars). I saw him many, many years ago at McCabes in Santa Monica. He’s a folk artist out of Tuson AZ, who used to play in the Stoney Poneys with Linda Ronstadt.

Name a book you own that no-one else on your friends list does:
Most folks probably don’t have The Rape of the A.P.E. by Allen Sherman (yes, that Allen Sherman, of Hello Muddah Hello Faddah fame). It has one 20 page chapter that consists of the word “Fuck*“. The remainder of the chapter is the footnote.

Other books (that I recommend) that are pretty rare are The Last Days of the Late, Great State of California by Curt Gentry, and Who Censored Roger Rabbit? by Gary Wolf.

Name a movie you own on DVD/VHS/whatever that no-one else on your friends list does:
Lizards Times 20, the concert video from the Austin Lounge Lizards. 2nd Runner Up is my wife’s Roger Whittaker in Kenya video.

Name a place that you have visited that no-one else on your friends list has:
Well, there’s Camp Hess Kramer and Gindling Hilltop Camp in Malibu, but someone might have gone there. It’s got to be someplace that I went to before my wife. So, it is either the steam tunnels under UCLA, or the old UCLA computer club “lab” in Engineering I.
