1. Song For The Dumped - Ben Folds Five (i wish I hadn't bought you dinner / right before you dumped me on your front porch / give me my money back, you b*tch)
2. No Distance Left To Run - Blur (i won't kill myself trying to stay in your life / i got no distance left to run)
3. War Of The Worlds - Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly (I know I can be / everything you want me to be / but we haven't talked in days / in fact it's been a matter of weeks / so the next time that you need me, don't expect a call)

Top 5 "relationships are great" songs...
1. Wake Up Boo - The Boo Radleys (I shouldn't be up at this time / but I can't sleep with you there by my side)

TOP 5 CELEBRITY CHEFS WHO CAN'T COOK
1. Keith Floyd
2. Rick Stein (has anyone actually seen this guy cook?)
3. Ainsley "I Love A Nice Bit Of Meat" Harriot
4. Jamie "Jubbly" Oliver
5. Delia Smith
Food and music, all there is to it really...
That guy is my inspiration when it comes to cooking. However much alcohol there is in the dish, it needs more. The only restriction is that the quantity of alcohol in the food must, at all times, be exceeded by the amount of alcohol that goes into the cook while preparing the dish.
Top 5 bands: Dream Theater Spock's Beard Jethro Tull Iron Maiden Megadeth Weird combination, but what can you do ???
Top 5 dishes: Argentinean BBQ (asado, vacío, chorizo, morcilla, chinchulines y molleja) Pizza (good old Margherita does the trick just fine) Wiener Schnietzel w/fries Spaghetti Bolognesa Subway's Crab & Seafood Top 5 reads: Cortazar complete works A Confederacy of dunces, by John Kennedy Toole The night of the oracle, by Paul Auster The catcher in the rye Stephen King's "The dark tower" series (I know, it's cheating, but still...it's a guilty pleassure) Mmm, easy with the music and the food, but the books it's a lot tougher. I would like to include also a recent "discovery" called The shadow of the wind , by a Spanish writer called Carlos Ruiz Zafon, Jailbird by Vonnegut...ufff.
Totally agree...the guy's the best anti-chef there's ever been. I couldn't wait to get home from school and watch "Floyd Gets Pi**ed".
