in lieu of an actual post - yet another meme

This is from Rafael

1) What is the total amount of music files on your computer?
At work, on my own, it’s fairly pathetic – a mere 439 songs and 1.69GB– if you throw in IT boy's collection, to which I have full access (because he rocks - out loud), it’s about 7 times that much. At home, between my 3 macs, it’s probably only about 3 or 4 times what I have at work – only because I’m entirely too lazy to copy stuff from cds to the iTunes – once I get an iPod, everything will change (at least that's what the voices tell me)

2) The CD you last bought was:
Um… are we talking about new cd or used? And does it have to be for me? I think the last one I actually purchased was the Jay-Z/Lincoln Park mash up – yes, it’s shamelessly commercial, but it’s damn good

3) What is the song you last listened to before reading this message?
”Bob Marley and the Wailers – Waiting in Vain” – awww, Bob…

4) Write down five songs you often listen to or that mean a lot to you:
The Killers “All these things that I’ve done” – it describes my kaleidescope moods very well
Poe, “Not a Virgin” – It’s my angry girl song.
Bryan Ferry, “Slave to Love” – It’s the best infatuation song EVER.
Frank Sinatra, “My Way.” It makes my teary-eyed every time I listen to it – Frank was the man.
Elvis Presley “The Wonder of you” it’s such an epic song, and Elvis ALWAYS puts me in a good mood - ALWAYS

5) To whom (three people) are you going to pass this stick? And why?
Trish (because she lives for music), Jen (because she’s going to be a dead hooker on tv soon) and Tim (because he gave me my own section in the sidebar of his blog). - And anyone else who has this kind of time
