1. What is your favorite thing to do at the beach?
2. What is your favorite canned food?
3. What is one tv show, movie or book that you've tried to like as much as everyone else but you just don't get the hype?

1. Beach volleyball or Frisbee for sandy beaches. But I actually prefer rocky beaches. I like to sit up on the rocks and just listen to the waves crashing against the rocks. It's quite peaceful.

2. Cream of mushroom soup. It's a comfort food.

3. TV Show - "Lost", Movie - Citizen Kane, Book - Anything by James Patterson.

1. Walk
2. In grad school it was "Veg-All" canned vegetable mix. Currently, none.
3. "Sex and the City" comes to mind.

1. Take a swim.

2. Pineapple. And condensed milk (I don't eat it, I just lick the can very well...)

3. TV shows: Battlestar Galactica, 30 Rock, The Office. Book: Wicked (although, maybe it's just a bad translation...)

Condensed milk is a seriously SICK addiction of mine... I made key lime pie last night and only used one and a HALF cans. I've been "tasting" from the other half all day today. It's SICK! But oh my god it's good.

1. Walk ... definitely.

2. Hmmn. Progresso used to make a split pea soup that was freakin' amazing. Now it comes w/ bacon, and it's gross.

3. "Ugly Betty" and "24."

I almost went with "24," but I think if I tried to sit down with the show on DVD and get to watch it in more solid chunks I might decide I like it better than trying to catch it every week or so.

I actually started hating 24 because we watched all of season 1 on tape in one go. Things that might seem plausible stretched out week to week just became laughable (Fucking amnesia?!?!)

1. Drink fruity things with umbrellas, wade in the waves, swim, walk around with sand between my toes...everything. I love the beach.
2. Boiled peanuts.
3. Juno.

Ohhhhh I am all with you about Juno! I couldn't believe the hype surrounding that movie! It totally did not deserve Best Original Screenplay! Even seeing it a second time, once the rush of Awards season was over, did not change my mind as to its worthiness of my adulation.

I know, right? I thought it was cute. Good, even. Worthy of 20 Oscar nominations? Not really.

Cute but not great seconded. Lars and the Real Girl was a much better script.

1. Swim
2. Vienna Sausages. But only once in a while. they're so gross and tasty.
3. Friends, ER, 24, Deadwood. Casablanca for movie (African Queen is such a better movie if you want a bogart vehicle.) Terry Pratchet's Ringworld series.

1. Snorkel! Look for seashells!

2. Canned black beans or canned diced tomatoes - I can make so many different things with just those two items. Favorite thing to eat straight up: sweetened condensed milk (see comment above about my SICK addiction).

3. The Hobbit, Lord of the Rings, et al.
