The Friday Five

Friday, November 11, 2005  | 

In an on-going effort to pad Long Pauses with content, I'm instituting a new feature (gimmick), The Friday Five. It should be self-explanatory. Feel free to participate.

The first installment was inspired by a conversation I had with Girsh and Doug at a Vietnamese restaurant in Toronto. As I recall, we drifted to the topic after Girish and I discovered our shared admiration for the Bee Gees.
