I had a blast meeting new people and seeing the sights that London had to offer all the while catching up with my pen pal of 10 1/2 years.

These have been developed after many years of careful study of each of you. Remember, you will have an opportunity to explain yourselves and elaborate on my thoughts on your addictions. Remember, all things are in good fun here at the bar, none are meant maliciously, just for interesting discussion. How close am I here?

My basic addictions are reminiscent of a Sheryl Crowe song -- Livin' on caffeine and nicotene... You know the drill -- although lately, I have a fixation on British alternative rock! I admit it -- I am addicted to old and new school British Alternative rock -- fed by many sources, including Johnny Walker (Dre),Heatherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08539277796589646386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699557.post-879110092003-01-23T13:37:00.000-05:002003-01-23T13:37:20.000-05:00 A Call to Musical Expert, Dirty Martini (aka: Jen Raj) The more I listen to Virgin radio in London, the more I realize that the U.S. has a long time to catch up with Britains Indie music scene. The more I listen, the more perplexed I am about so many awesome bands simply not making it to U.S. charts and into the radios of American homes. Take The London Suede.

My life is good in most ways here in Virginia -- the roads are nice, people too (most of the time), etc. ..but there is one thing that drives me CRA-ZY about this state.

One such line Aptly describes most women in the workforce. Jack Nicholson plays the part of a famous romance novelist suffering from Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
