Five Questions to Answer on Friday for 3.19.04
The Friday Five appears every Friday at the stroke of midnight on FridayFive.org. My second (or third) post on this incarnation of AO was the Five. This'll be a regular part of Five by Five, along with the usual lists. Feel free to post a comment with your answers so I don't get lonely.

If you...

1. ...owned a restaurant, what kind of food would you serve?
It'd probably be along the lines of Applebee's menu, because I'm into that kind of crap. It wouldn't be so Applebee's-looking though (the actual restaurant). And pumpkin pie would be offered as a dessert. I'd call the restaurant Goose's.

2. ...owned a small store, what kind of merchandise would you sell?
Music. Lots of music. A few toys and books, too.

3. ...wrote a book, what genre would it be?
Biography. I've actually started writing one four times now. I'll get it together one day, possibly when I've lived long enough to actually write an autobiography.

4. ...ran a school, what would you teach?
Funny you should ask! I'd just teach kindergarten or first grade, as planned.

5. ...recorded an album, what kind of music would be on it?
Horrible. :) It'd probably involve an acoustic guitar and me, kinda somewhere in the general area of not as good as Dave Matthews / possibly a little better, but probably much worse than John Mayer.

Five Favorite South Park Episodes
(in no particular order)

1. Chickenlover
You will respect my authoritah! This is one of the episodes that got me hooked in the first place.

2. Simpsons Did It
My favorite of the newer class of shows (though being in season eight now, I guess that label is gone) pays homage to the greatest show of all time.

3. Gnomes
My favorite episode. It's got Tweek. It's got Tweek's dad and that lovely, smalltown mountain music. And it has the underpants gnomes. Step #1: Steal underpants. Step #3: Profit!

4. Sexual Harrassment Panda
The episode storyline really kinda sucks. But it's Sexual Harrassment Panda. That in itself, and his visit to the bar (and other visits) make it all worth it.

5. Cartmanland
Cartman gets his own freakin' amusement park.

Honorable mention: Any Jesus episode, especially the boxing one against Satan.

Five by Five: An Explanation
Now Playing: The Shins - 'So Says I'
What is "Five by Five"? Simple, really. I've been plotting it out since I revived AO for the 19th time. It's, for lack of a better explanation, a reason for me to make random lists that I otherwise have no room for. Five things I like. Five things I don't. It'll get a lot of pop culture junk out of my head. I can (and probably will) sprout out my favorite music babes. And hey, I'll even throw in some actual knowledge every now and then.

As far as the title, it came from Faith on "Buffy."
