- Sometime in the future, in Ireland. Is that cheating? Coz I don’t think I could really live in the past, I like my modern technology far too much. Actually, if I could I’d jump ahead to Oct. 7th just so I could watch Serenity. Otherwise Ancient Rome would be pretty cool, but then again I’m female so not really all that great. I think if I had to choose a time it’d be so far back in time that nothing would be at all familar. Ancient Ireland, cause I can’t see myself living anywhere else, and even though they say that the past is a foreign country it’d be something vaguely familar.
- Obviously I’d name it biscuits vodka :) And it would contain mainly vodka, with a mysterious mixer, that would NOT be biscuits
- There isn’t one. No way I could just choose one book (I’m taking best book to mean book I love above all others). Robin Hobb’s Farseer trilogy, Mary Gentle’s Ash, GGK’s Tigana, I could go on and on. I think maybe if you asked what is your favourite box of books I could fill that :)
- This has to be the toughest question yet
After seeing Sin City Frodo is just too creepy. I don’t like whathisface that played Sam in the films. Gandalf has that beard. Why wasn’t Boromir listed here? Or if from the books Faramir?
We’ll have to go with Frodo I think.
- That depends on the individual. Eyes, chest, arms, all good.
Great answers Fence! I don't think I could pick a different time period to live in either. I love where I live and I love my family, my life is good (except for the job). If I had to pick, I would probably pick Ireland. I'm part Irish and I have always want to go there. For some reason I have always been interested in Ireland.
LOL Biscuits Vodka! I wouldn't mix vodka with biscuits though. Yuck!
I would have a hard time picking one either. I saw that question somewhere and thought it was a good one though.
Now, if I had put Boromir or Faramir it would have been too easy. I think I would pick Samwise. After Sin City, I will never look at Elijah Wood the same way again. Turns my stomach!
I'm a hands and eye person myself, but it's all good!
Well what would you like to know about Ireland. I can tell you everything. Although certain "facts" may be massaged to make them more interesting :)
LOL I already find Ireland pretty interesting. I wouldn't know where to being to ask questions. I read about it some and am planning to read more. Who are some good authors I should be looking at?
Colum MacCann is pretty good, and Tom Humphries is usally an interesting read. And of course Roddy Doyle. And Joseph O'Connor (Sinead O'Connor's brother) has a few good books.
Thank you for the tips. I will look all of these guys up. I've checked out Roddy Doyle a couple of times but haven't read him yet. His books sound good.
