Songs to sing along to, to rock out to, to cry to.... anything!

(Hint: The Beatles are a band, not a song. Yellow Submarine is a song. :P)

What scenes are roughly equivalent? Not necessarily the most similar, just scenes that actually happen in both the movie and the book, as there is plenty that doesn't overlap. I'm trying to decide which scene to use, and since it is for school work, I'm not looking for the actual comparison.

I'm going to have the whole house to myself for two full weeks. Any suggestions?

It seems like a lot more than one would expect.

I definitely do. Except Luke Menard's face is less feminine-looking than Orlando Bloom's.

I know I already asked basically the same thing, and I got some rather good answers. I am still looking to lengthen my list, however. (And I am still searching through thesaurus.com and rhymefinder.com. on my own.)

Some examples of answers people have supplied me with include:

actual factual

trip slip

dance prance

radical fanatical

These are all great... but can you think of any more?

And just in case you forgot (or didn't know), synonyms are words that have nearly the same meaning.

I need a list of 20-25, and currently only have 11, one pair of which I do not believe is school newspaper appropriate (whacked and cracked).

Some I currently have are:

whirl twirl

sooth truth

vindication exoneration

I've been using online dictionaries, thesauruses, rhyme finders, etc. but I need some help. As many as you can find would be very much appreciated.

Or songs.

Anything at all... but keep it PG.

Answers 1 word or more are welcome!

My favorite authors include Douglas Adams, Terry Pratchett, Eoin Colfer, and Jane Austen to mention a few.

That's so you can get an idea of what I read, so no need to recommend their work.

I'm most probably looking for something fiction. I have a tendency toward science fiction, but I'm open to most genres. Not a fan of "trashy romance novels" or horror books.

So... what do you think?

Mine's been okay. A little boring, but not too bad.

What movie do you want to watch?

Or a local music store, or what?

female names?

It doesn't matter if they happen to generally be masculine names. Just whatever names you like for a female.

Will you be sitting next to me?

When reading a book or watching tv/movies, what cliches bother you most?

They can be events, words and phrases used to describe things, or character stereotypes.

I'm personally sick of things "hitting" people "like a ton of bricks." I'm sure it was vivid imagery once, but now it seems everyone has got to use the phrase to describe a realization. Yikes.

Okay, so I'm making a list of songs that correspond with months. This is what I have so far:

January-

February- “As I Lay Me Down” by Sophie B. Hawkins; “February Song” Josh Groban;

March-

April-

May-

June-

July-

August-

September- “Wake Me up When September Ends” Green Day;

October-

November- “Sleeping in” The Postal Service;

December- “Love Like Winter” AFI; “My December” Linkin Park;

Can you help me fill it in? It's okay if you want to add a song to a month that already has one listed.

About how many hours a night do you (or did you) or children spend on homework? For each age range?

Is it too much or too little?

How much do you think is beneficial to students, and how much is detrimental?

For people in school, about how much homework do you do versus how much your teachers assign?

Details are appreciated!
