Gotta go with Barbie Pride and Prejudice.
I LOL every time Darcy pops out from behind the rock. And does Bingley have Kung Fu Grip? If not, he should.
Share a song you loved way back in the day.
Back in the day heck, I still drive around with this blasting. Well, maybe not as much now with the price of gas being what it is.
And now I feel like posting some more of Mags' Hits of the Eighties. How about some Duran Duran? Mmm, Simon le Bon. And this is still a kickass video.

And my other favorite blond British boy from the Eighties, and possibly the anti-Simon, Joe Elliott of Def Leppard in his strategically ripped jeans. I once had a really cool dream that Joe Elliott was following me around Beaver Stadium to tell me he loved me.
Show us a self-portrait.
I hate photos of myself!
Show us some magnets.
Incidentally, she has a magnet in the back of her head so she sticks to my cabinet. Very handy. Though today I had a difficult time explaining why a Jane Austen bobblehead doll would be disrespectful and a Jane Austen Redrum fingerpuppet with a magnet in her head was not.

Jane Austen's novel Northanger Abbey never fails to make me laugh, whether it's at John Thorpe's opinions of Great Books, or Isabella Thorpe's flightiness, or Mrs. Allen's obsession with her clothes, or my very favorite literary hero, Henry Tilney, making some wiseacre crack, or the heroine, Catherine Morland, being young and a bit silly.
I just received this set of Jane Austen's novels yesterday. The Telegraph in the UK was giving them away with vouchers from their newspaper, and my friend Kathleen in London collected them all for me! They are the Everyman editions, so quite good, with scholarly introductions and everything, and new covers by six different artists. I like the cover of NA, which incorporates the final line of the novel: "I leave it to be settled, by whomsoever it may concern, whether the tendency of this work be altogether to recommend parental tyranny, or reward filial disobedience."
All of Jane Austen's novels are funny, but I think Northanger Abbey is her funniest.
