Friends of the lemming

Most recently from lysana:

A book you own that no one on your friends list does:

There are lots of possibilities here: Egyptian Grammar bySir Alan Gardiner (1927, Oxford University Press; third edition copyright 1957), but there are a couple of linguists on the list. How about Procedures in Experimental Physics by John Strong (1946, Prentice-Hall)?

A CD you own that no one on your friends list does:

The one-off's would, of course, be cheating, and so many of my friends are filkers that it would be foolish to expect anything unique in that department. How about the sound track for Silent Running -- music by Peter Schickele, and vocals by Joan Baez. Or, perhaps, Music of Changes by John Cage. Piano music based on the I Ching.

A DVD/VHS tape you own that no one on your friends list does:

The off-the-air tape of The Haunted Monastery probably doesn't count here, either. How about either Animusic, or (nolly has it) H. P. Lovecraft's The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath (gfish) Revolution OS (a documentary about Linux)?

A place you've been that no one on your friends list has been to:

This is tricky, since I have family on the list. That means I have to go back a ways. Let's try Howe Caverns in Howes Cave, New York. If one could pick bounded regions of space-time, I'd go for the Cortlandt Street segment of New York's Radio Row. I spent many happy afternoons there before they razed it to build the World Trade Center.

And we have The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath. Sorry.
