My Favourite Things

When you've got music from The Sound of Music stuck in your head, and you dont know why - you expand upon it. This is what I came up with, what can you come up with?

(To the tune of "My Favourite Things")

Webapps and music and playing with gizmos, Caffeine and tech news and scifi on Tivo, Coding at midnight and hot spicey wings, These are a few of my favourite things.

One TB hard drives and ripping a CD, killing noobs in Quake and saying OH EM GEE, thinking I'm leet and txting on cellphones, these are a few of my favourite things.

<one more of those, I can't think of anything else>

When the host fails, when the server dies, when I can't code, I simply remember my favorite things, and then I don't feel so bad.

Ruby and Smalltalk and dynamic runtimes, Emacs and shell scripts and UNIX command lines, Macros and lambdas and networking pings, These are a few of my favorite things.

How do you get "The Sound of Music" music stuck in your head?

Listening to http://www.sky.fm/soundtracks/, perhaps. Their library isn't huge, but it's still fun.

I often just pop up with strange ideas/concepts in my head - it is just one of my quirks I guess.
