Random quotes of the day:

1. "Can't cook, won't bathe, and now she's narcoleptic. She's a triple threat."
2. It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.
3. Any view of things that is not strange is false.
4. Chapter read and lesson learned / I turn the lights off while she burned / So while she's three hundred degrees / I throw the sheets off and I freeze.
5. "I'm a child, I'm in need, I was just speeding up the proceedings."


These come from books, TV and songs. A gold star if you can identify any or all of them.

You get a gold star!

I have to confess that even though I love that book, I would likely not have recognized the quote myself, having not read it in several years, lol.

#4 is Who Needs Sleep? by the Barenaked Ladies and I loves it so.

That song is the theme song of my life, lol. I lie awake at night, unable to sleep, and listen to it playing in my mind.

A gold star for you, my dear! :)

ditto -- I carry the insomnia gene from that guy that's been awake since the second world war.

We must be related, then!

I've actually been sleeping okay the past few days. *knocks on wood* I wonder how long that will last?

I know that the second one is from Jane Austin. I think the fifth one is from the pilot of Hetty Wainthroppe, when Geoffry steals from the post office.

Correct in both instances. The Jane Austen quote is the first line of 'Pride and Prejudice.' And I just love that quote of Geoff's. He really is a cheeky little monkey, isn't he?

You get two gold stars for your efforts. :)

Number five is Geoffry to Hetty in first esp of season one after she catches him stealing. LOL So far, that's the only one I have but I am working on the others.

Bingo! You get a gold star. I'm going to hold off posting the answers until tomorrow, so that anyone who doesn't check their flist on the weekend can still play if they want to.

Well, I know the Geoffrey quote (#5), but that's about it. But I DO love that quote!

Everyone knows the Geoffrey quote, lol. I'm a bit surprised that three Farscape fans have responded but none of you have caught the Farscape quote. Oh well, I suppose that's what comes of quoting from season four, lol. :)
