Um, yeah...this is gonna be another of those "Argh, think of anything that starts with X!" blog posts. Because it's X, man!
Hey wait, that reminds me of X-men.
Okay, so here's a list:
- X-men - well, you know. Wolverine...I love that movie. I love...certain scenes...from that movie. Like the running-across-a-field-naked scene...yeah...
- xylophones - I do recall playing one of these, back in the days when I was getting piano lessons from my aunty (she's a music teacher, and has always taught piano on the side too).
- X-Files, the - I own the entire series on DVD, and it's definitely one of my all-time faves. I even liked the last two seasons which scarcely featured our hero and heroin at all.
- xenophobia - of this, I am not a fan!
- Xenophon - a Greek historian, soldier and mercenary who wrote in the 4th century B.C. Go Xen!!
- Also, here is a bunch of animals whose names start with the letter x.
Aaand for the heck of it...some songs beginning with X:
- "X-Static" - one of my favourite songs by the Foo Fighters, from their debut album.
- "X-Ray Eyes" - by Guster, a band whose albums I do not own but intend to in future.
- "Xanadu" - Olivia Newton John; this song always reminds me of my friend Jen. Hehe.
- "Xtal" - by Aphex Twin. I haven't heard many of this guy's songs yet, but this one is totally awesome! Far less disturbing than "Window Licker" was (mostly the video clip...lol).
And that's it - consider yourself Xd!
Mulder and Scully yay! I loved watching that show on Friday nights.
ReplyDeleteI like Guster's Barrel of a Gun.
I haven't heard that song! Will have to check it out :) And I can't remember what night the show was on here - it was sooooo long ago that I watched it on TV! :P
ReplyDeleteAn impressive collection of X's! I played one of those Fisher Price xylophones, does that make me musical? Whatcha think????
ReplyDeleteAnn - definitely! ;) It counts for sure. Just like those kids' battery-powered guitars count :)
ReplyDeleteI think you X-ed it out of the park!
ReplyDeleteI miss Mulder and Scully. What a fun show that was.
:)
But now that it's on DVD we can relive it over and over ...and over...again. hehe
ReplyDeleteToo Cool.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't come up with an X I'd use for my book review today. Well, I didn't sign up for A-z . .
Have a good weekend Trisha :)
.......dhole
Great job with X. We are in the home stretch!! You've done a great job with the challenge. :)
ReplyDeleteHaven't seen the X-men film, maybe I should. I'll also have to look into Xenophon, a mercenary historian, hmmmmm.
ReplyDeleteX is such a hard day! I haven't made my post yet because I haven't thought of a good subject yet.
ReplyDelete@Donna, maybe there's some X-Files book out there. :D Or wait...a book of Xenophon! hehe
ReplyDelete@Ciara - thanks :D It's been fun, yet kind of...harrowing. lol. I'm sure you understand! And yeaaah, home stretch!
@Bish - I recommend it if you like sexy naked man meat. hehe. I mean it's a very FLEETING glimpse, but still, my friend and I were quite happy with that scene.
@Clarissa - hmm.... Maybe you could write about X as a target :D i.e. X marks the spot! I'm sure you'll think of something.
I love certain scenes from Wolverine too :)
ReplyDeleteYou rock. My brain imploded on the "X" post. I gave up.
ReplyDeleteI loved X-files too! It was always humorous how Scully always had to be convinced about whatever bizzarroland thing was chasing them--as if they had never had a bizarre experience before! Still, loved that show.
Lots of good x words there :O)
ReplyDeleteLOL! You really did well with "X" words!
