I copied this from Emily Yoshida
Leave your name in my comments and…
1. I’ll respond with something random about you.
2. I’ll tell you what song/movie reminds me of you.
3. I’ll pick a flavor of jello to wrestle with you in.
4. I’ll say something that only makes sense to you and me.
5. I’ll tell you my first/clearest memory of you.
6. I’ll tell you what animal you remind me of.
7. I’ll ask you something that I’ve always wondered about you.
8. If I do this for you, you must post this on your journal. You MUST. It is written.
I’ll write a genuine post later. I just got to work, after all.
yeah yeah yeah! Emily Yoshida
Katy Obert
Emily Yoshida:
1. You are cute when you giggle nervously.
2. “Andy Warhol” by David Bowie
3. Ginger, which you would buy next time you’re somewhere that sells ginger Jello (Japan? They have everything in Japan)
4. “What-f’ing-ever, bitch.”
5. No Shame Theatre, you did a piece with Anne Sullivan, and I thought you were a good dresser.
6. A jaunty little raccoon
7. Do you and your mom get along well? What’s your relationship like?
Katy Obert:
1. You are very stylish and confident.
2. Anything by Ten Grand
3. Basil Peach, sexy and gourmet like you, my fair lady
4. I really liked that comment you left that they read at the funeral.
5. Your dorm room in Currier; I remember your Asian-inspired room decor.
6. A seagull (but not as screechy)
7. You have a wonderful laugh. Do you ever laugh when things aren’t even very funny, just to have the opportunity to show off your wonderful laugh?
“It has been done…”
Elizabeth Wong..?
Hi, Elizabeth! Elton told me you were in school here this year. How’s it going for you so far?
OK…here are your answers:
1. You have a good memory for details.
2. “I Can’t Dance” by Phil Collins. One time you showed me a dance routine to that song.
3. Lime! Lime jello is so good.
4. You eat fish cheeks.
5. I was going over to your parents’ house for the first time with a group of people, and Elton said, “I apologize in advance for my sister.” You were a bit of a wild child. 🙂
6. A black squirrel, Iowa City-style
7. What made you decide to go to Iowa instead of Iowa State like your brothers?

Erin Brodersen:
1. You are a much more accomplished artist than I realized for most of the time I’ve known you.
2. “Scary Monsters” by Frank Black and the Catholics, because it shares a title with a great song by another person.
3. Cherry Jello, because it is red like your cheeks (which I mean as a compliment)
4. Who ever heard of that scent for a candle?
5. I remember you in the Theatre lounge, chatting with Dick Roberts. I thought it was funny that you were so chummy with him.
6. A salmon. You thrive in cold weather.
7. Where is your favorite place you’ve ever lived?
Totally Erwin.
Be patient as I crawl towards yours. There are 10 users ahead of you in the queue.
James:
1. Back when “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire” was popular, I decided that if I ever was on that show, you would be one of my lifelines. You are good at knowing things.
2. Maybe some old-timey jugband song. Or “Barbecue” from “Emmett Otter’s Jugband Christmas.”
3. Miso jello?
4. The only man in the room with glasses? Unbelievable.
5. I remember you from West Side Players events, co-directing a play I wasn’t in with a guy you’re no longer friends with.
6. A cuddly fuzzy bunny
7. It seems like you are always about six inches away from greatness. What steps are you going to take to break through and truly shake up this crazy world?
This is a fun post to read. I got back from Milwaukee yesterday – I had fun with your cousin. We saw a Brewers game, so I got to see the Brewers beat the Cardinals at Miller Park. I wanted to tour Harley, but they don’t give tours on the weekends. Bummer for me.

Now that. That is painful. Not by any fault of yours, of course. It’s painful because it is true. For whatever reason, I simply cannot break that last barrier. Problems keep delaying the release of my book. I can’t make the step from No Shame Guy to Playwright. I can’t make the step from occasional McSweeney’s contributor to That McSweeney’s Guy.
I don’t believe I’ve done everything I can. I don’t believe I’ve hit the limit of my abilities, and certainly not my ambitions. Is it focus? Is it a subconscious desire to fail? Is it fear of actual success?
Something like that. I’m wrestling with it a lot lately.
Probably more than you were expecting.
i forgot about that candle.
i HATE dick roberts… ex boyfriends dad, its awkward
i have mostly lived in ic, so i think i am used to it more. i am enjoying milwaukee so far though.
That sounds like a really fun weekend, Em. That’s weird that Harley doesn’t do tours on weekends; that sounds like exactly when tourists would want to tour.
just surprised to find someone who spells her name like mine.
Room decors should be made from organic materials not synthetic ones as much as possible.*~-
what we have on our room decors are lots of china ware and vases;:*
room decors should also have bright colors so that they look warm and lively inside your home*”‘
room decors that are using lead free paints must always be used on our homes ..;
And for the Yubiwaza, It does work perfectly. All you have to do is to stab your attacker’s eye or b*tthole with your finger. Try not to get killed first.
