Wednesday Media Mix

Here's a meme from over at My Digital Ghost :

[Listen] Do you ever make mixed CDs for friends? If so, what is your process for choosing what music to put in the mix?

No, although I once made a tape for a friend just over a decade ago, but there was no real process involved apart from putting together lots of music I liked at the time and thought they might like. Also, to be found somewhere on this blog, there's a playlist that I put together using the same throw-together-random-stuff-I-like principle.

[Watch] Are there shows that you never watched while they were running, but love watching re-runs now?

The only one that springs to mind is The Phil Silvers Show, which still remains eminently watchable despite the decades.

[Read] Use three words to describe the last book you read.

Short, scary, likeable (Coraline by Neil Gaiman)
