Free-For-All Week!

Free-For-All Week! It is clear to me that I COULD NEVER WRITE ENOUGH ABOUT THE APPLICATION PROCESS, ESPECIALLY THIS TIME OF YEAR! I need a big favor! I am up to my neck in applications (I just want to save my wrist watch!) For this entry do you mind if we dont discuss applications? I need to switch into holiday mode and I believe that you need to do the same. As I read your responses Im sure that if I put a piece of coal in a chair, and asked some of you to sit on it, in 2 days flat wed have a flawless 30 karat yellow canary diamond. I propose 3 topics of discussion: Movies, Music, and Baby Names. MOVIES Send me a list of your top 10 all time classic movies. If you need help, I suggest IMDB. Here are the rules: Each movie must be at least 7 years old It must be available as a rental (Sorry, that excludes Valley of the Dolls) You must have at least one movie from the following categories: Westerns Drama Horror Sci Fi Comedy Animation Action Other categories include: Biography War Documentary No more than two movies from any one category; and sequels/trilogies count as multiple entries. MUSIC I need you list the top 5 songs and/or top 5 CDs of all time. (You can mix and match, so long as you dont exceed a total of 10 per genre) Here are the categories de jour: Hip-Hop/Old School Rap (1975 to present) RB (From the late 1960s to present) Classic Rock (1960s to 1975) Love Songs (whenever) Re-Makes (whenever) BABY NAMES My wife is expecting a boy in the beginning of January. We are still not 100% set on a name Heres your chance! Name the new Nance Baby! Give me 3 good names. (Remember, this child has to live with the name, so be nice!) Let me know what you think and Ill post my favorites in a few days. Be prepared for vigorous and lively debate! [Ed. note: naming Bryans son will not automatically get you into MIT.]
