You need to include 3 movies (drama, comedy & sports movies), a CD with 3 songs on it and 3 books. Your time capsule should represent your taste and personality. What's in your time capsule?

Haha. Hemingway is my favorite author. He could wax poetically about whatever he wants for as long as he wants and I would probably like it.

Old Man and the Sea is pretty slow. I'd try Farewell to Arms or The Sun Also Rises. But you'll probably just find you don't like his writing style. A lot of people are pretty polar about him. He was the reason I loved the movie Midnight in Paris, too.
