Friday Five LVI: The Last Shall Be First
1. What was the last song you heard?
As I type, I am watching Little Shop of Horrors on DVD with Rick Moranis. Right now they are singing Suddenly Seymour. Does in progress count at the last song you heard? Yes, I did sing along.
2. What were the last two movies you saw?
As I said, I am watching the movie version of Little Shop of Horrors. After Parent/Teacher Conferences I went to Blockbuster and rented that, School of Rock (my rating: A-, how funny), and The Runaway Jury (my rating: B, one of my favorite Grisham novels.)
The movie of Little Shop of Horrors Movie has a significantly different ending than the stage show and ruins my analogy that I tried to make a bit. I would suggest the stage show over the movie. The movie’s ending is way to happy and really messes up the edge that the stage show has. Plus the movie leaves out several songs.
3. What were the last three things you purchased?
A 20 oz. Pepsi for the free song, gasoline, a renewal of my Rewards Membership at Blockbuster Video.
4. What four things do you need to do this weekend?
Add some plug-ins to Spare Change, wait around for the UPS man to show up to deliver my repaired laptop, update MT-Blacklist on this server, grade papers.
5. Who are the last five people you talked to?
Big E, Mary Ann, Pressed, my Mom, the UPS guy.
Class dismissed!

So how’s the laptop doing now that you have it back?

It’s working! Now I have both the desktop and the laptop workin’. I won’t know what to do with myself.

did you cheat to get the free song?
I got something for you, if you’re looking….
…I found out the “search me” doesn’t work. Why not? Search me.

Bryan…
Actually I have a pretty sweet deal going on at school. They haven’t put the iTunes bottles in the soda machine yet so I have a deal with the custodian to buy the iTunes bottles and I go down and check to make sure that it is a winner.
You’re right the search me isn’t working. I shall investigate.

Now you can *really* multitask, huh?
You know, I still wonder if Pepsi wouldn’t have been better off to skip spending almost $2 million on that iTunes Superbowl commercial and just made *every* bottle a winner. That would have been enough to get me to drink some Pepsi!

Bryan, the search on SC is now searching.
