This meme is going around:

Name a CD you own that you think no one else on your friends list does: LUX Radio Theatre's production of The Adventures of Luke Skywalker, digitally remastered from the original 1944 shellac recordings.

Name a book you own that you think no one else on your friends list does: Urf. Too many. Grabbing one at semi-random: Through Harsh Winters: The Life of a Japanese Immigrant Woman, KIKUMURA Akemi, Chandler and Sharp Publishers, Novato, California, 1981.

Name a Movie/DVD/VHS that you think no one else on your friends list has: Babylon 5 pilot movie, original cut, on Japanese laserdisc. Never released in English. If that fails, somewhere I've got a copy of the Peter Pan and the Pirates two-part episode "Hook's Deadly Game" that the studio sent me as source material for an article I wrote an article about it.

Name a place that you have visited that you think no one else on your friends list has: Does it count if they went with you at the time? If it doesn't, then I've got no answer available. If it does, then, hum, Ailsa Craig, an island bird sanctuary halfway between Scotland and Ireland. We weren't allowed to set shore - it's generally prohibited - but we got a good look all around it by boat. I also took pictures. Here are someone else's photos, complete with pictures of the Waverly, the boat that got us there, out of Glasgow! You can see how close the Waverly gets. There were a lot fewer people onboard when we went out.

Name a tool/piece of technology that you think no one else on your friends list owns: I have a speciality glass cutter made in Japan that I bought for sculpture work. That'd probably be my best bet.

When I did this meme a while back, I think I made people throw up with the "name a place you've visited that no one else on your friends list has".

Ailsa Craig? Heh...Been by it a long time ago when I was doing patrols out of Holy Loch, Scotland.

I couldn't figure out why the name "Ailsa Craig" rang a bell with me, until I looked it up on Google maps, where I found the town in the middle of southern Ontario that I guess we saw signs for on our way to the Pinery when I was a kid.
