there'd be no distance that could hold us back

Delightful things I have learned about @KeithOlbermann:

*has already mastered the Art of Twittering faster than @RachelMaddow, calls her a n00b, I squeal my head off
*is a huge Harry Potter nerd
*is BFFies with Simon Pegg and Joel McHale
*is not actually a huge scifi geek, a trespass which I can easily forgive because he greatly enjoys Tom Baker as the Doctor
*believes Jeremy Brett to be the best Sherlock Holmes ever period end of story



With all due respect to Basil Rathbone and RDJesus, THE LAST POINT IS VERY TRUE. I am going through the complete Granada series in a way that can only be described as devouring, already up to "The Empty House". I'll miss David Burke as Watson terribly, but I already love Mr. Hardwicke, and both do a fab job of portraying the good doctor, but I am convinced that Jeremy Brett was born solely for the purpose of playing Sherlock Holmes, world's only consulting detective and champion sofa hurdler. DESTINED for it :D I need extreme macros, because seriously, this imperial ass GQMF. Seriously.



Update time for That Will Situation After The Death Of My Grandfather. ( Read more... )


Argh, I have not been a very good LJ friend lately, so I'm going to spend a considerable amount of time catching up with all of you. Best wishes and fond feelings for you all <3

Happy Halloween to one and all, and Happy Birthday to one Frank Iero :D I know I won't be the only one eagerly awaiting the return of the normal blue header tomorrow morning.

(btw, idc if anyone reads the rest of this post, but, please comment so I can see if I've succeeded in fixing my formatting? i.e., it shows up in your flist?)

School and work are still eating me alive D: I felt like a zombie today (fitting, considering the holiday) and I was pretty much ready to take a faceplant once I got home (which I did. conked out for two hours, just enough for me to wake up and get my daily dose of Keith ^__^) But it was pretty much worth it to because I got to see Jon being a gigantic Obama fanboy, and that makes me happeh <3 AND, AND, there were tiny children in the store today, all dressed up ♥ Little Tiggers and Buzz Lightyears and Alices omgggggg


I'm really, really looking forward to this election season wrapping up. I...can't really express exactly how tired I am of the whining and the GOP's perpetual state of delusion (and I find myself wishing Obama would be a teeeeeeny bit more aggressive so we can have some more snarky pwnage, but I suppose it's best left to Stewart & Colbert) and I just want it to be over. In essence, it is already, since, I believe, the only reason McCain could POSSIBLY pull this out of his ass is if there's some Election 2000-esque shenanigans. Democrats have already got a jump on that, with Obama mobilizing lawyers in key swing states to investigate matters of voter fraud, disenfranchisement, and voter suppression, but it's still happening and we still need to fight it. Get out there and vote, people.


Heard the Doctor Who news a couple days ago, and yes, I'm really depressed about it D: Peter may be my favorite Doctor, but Tennant is truly in a league of his own, and he launched the role into a fresh, wonderful area that I fear might not be reached again. I have every confidence that the next one will be a fantastic Doctor, but he won't be David.

( And now, picspammage! in the TARDIS )


And on a final, random note, Coldplay. Yeah, I know, but even if you don't like Coldplay AT ALL, watch this plz.

Chris Martin does his best to be Geeway, fails, but is still damn entertaining:



Srsly, wtf is up with the Black Parade-esque jackets? Why is there a tv by his piano? And, me being only a recent convert, there is WAY more onstage energy coming out of Chris than I thought there'd be O__O

Have I mentioned that I fucking love Coldplay? Because I do.



Nighty night.
