hawleygriffen -- write an award-winning bookxsabx -- Write some Science Fictionveggiesu -- Write your NaNoWriMo novelWriting was a popular option. I figure that either you guys all want to read things I write, or you want to keep me off the streets, or you couldn't think of anything else to suggest. :)
applez -- Chase crazy women!I dunno. I just think that on my holiday I should be branching out, y'know? Trying new things.
korovyov_x -- Take huge amounts of drugs and drive to Las VegasMaybe not that new.
autodidactic -- Naughty things involving whipped cream.Ah, chance'd be a fine thing.
ajp -- It's a lovely Autumn - so take a nice walk in the woods.Now, that sounds like an excellent suggestion.
snowking -- Clean my flat. And bring me women.Whereas this is just hopelessly optimistic. You think I know where to find women?
immortalradical -- Set up a kooky supernatural detective agency and never get any clients.SITUATIONS VACANT
ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANT. The successful candidate will be honest, loyal, and fashionable. Must share the company vision. Flexible working hours available.
RESEARCHER. Minimum 2 years experience, with referees. Must have comprehensive knowledge of the paranormal. Marksmanship skills a plus.
Any takers?
despotliz -- Grow a beard.I could be the wild man of Berkshire! Or not.
fba -- Watch all those DVDs and VHS's that you have borrowed and critque them on LJ.I'm sensing impatience. :-p
gagravarr -- Throw a dinner partyWell, are you free?
itchyfidget -- Cook, clean, chill.Sounds good. Apart from the cleaning.

Do you have anything in the nature of "Ill-fated cheeky celtic chappie with bad taste in clothes"? I can provide a hat if need be.

Date: 2003-10-30 07:23 am (UTC)I've got the ancient language skills and knowledge of archaic cults/ religions/myths to boot.
The down side might be that I'm entirely non-violent and go a bit pale when faced with shooting/fighting, but hey, I am really good at diffusing violent situations and negotiating non-violent solutions to problems.

Date: 2003-10-31 02:40 pm (UTC)There are several anime shows that match the generic definition
but what comes most to mind is something like Yu Yu Hakusho. I have to confess I don't know these shows terribly well, I don't watch them all that often.
More recently, there was another similiar anime I saw recently, 3 Hong Kong bookworm sisters who have mystical paper powers, and end up becoming the bodyguards for a reclusive Japanese author. I'm fairly sure I posted a review on my LJ...the name of the show is...Read or Dream TV/R.O.D. TV
