neverwhereGood evening all!
How is everyone on this fine and starry eve? :)
I am offering my Fish Called Wanda dvd or possibly an Amazon gift certificate to anyone who would like to buy me a paid account. I desperately need new icons, especially Billeh and Neil Gaiman related ones (Good Omens icons, whooot!). So if you'd like to help me out, I'd be very grateful.
And you do want me to have a beautiful and exciting journal, don't you? Course you do! *G*
And speaking of Good Omens...I found a GO community today! YEAH! It's called![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
lower_tadfield and everyone should join. I think it's brand new, because there aren't many members, but we can change that! Show your love for Crowley and Aziraphale, the sweetest, sexiest, most adorably ineffable angel and daemon who ever descended to earth. Go on, the Nevvie commands you! ;-)
I also, god help me, joined a GO rpg. *grins sheepishly* I can't believe I am actually watching a LiveJournal rpg, something I swore I would never do. But hey, right now I am finding it fun and interesting. Lets see how long it lasts. *smirks* It's called![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
buggerallethis, if you'd like to see for yourself. Cute name, neh? :)
I finished Carl Hiaasen's new book, Basket Case in a day and a half of reading on the train, which is pretty good for a 500 page novel. *grins* If you haven't discovered the brilliance of Hiaasen yet, I really must insist that you go out and buy one of his books right away. (I suggest Tourist Season or Native Tongue, they're my favourites.) He writes humourous mysteries that are infamous for their bizarre cast of characters (some personal favourites include a hit-man with a face like a bowl of rice krispies and a weed whacker attached to his arm, and the roadkill eating ex-Governor of Florida fondly known as 'Skink'), as well as their poignant environmental messages. Hiaasen has lived in Florida all his life, and in all his books he looks with sad eyes at the wanton destruction of his homeland in the name of corporate greed. He's never preachy, but always hilarious and utterly compelling. And if you'd enjoy reading about a theiving bodyguard who is so addicted to steroids he sucks them through an IV like a straw, and meets with a very indecent end being fucked to death by a randy dolphin, then he's the author for you. :)
This is the coolest quiz I've ever seen. And so accurate too! Poetry is good for you. :)

Eek! Oh my goodness! That's very, erm...horrible(and might I say painful...).

Tourist Season, Double Whammy, Sick Puppy, Skin Tight...all fabulous books. Mmmm.

Date: 2003-02-06 03:47 pm (UTC)Just stumbled over here from Aqui's friendlist. I think I like you already--GO, Hiaasen, and Last Unicorn all in one entry.
So you joined BAT? Who're you playing? (I'm the Metatron :D).

Oh, I'm not playing anyone, I'm just watching. If I were to play, I'd probably be Pepper. But I don't think I could keep up the postings for a game anyway. I'm not very good at online rpgs, which is a shame as I love D&D and Vampire, games like that. Ah well! :)

Date: 2003-02-06 04:09 pm (UTC)A friend of mine back in high school (who I had an enormous crush on at the time) got me into the Hiaasen books. "Lucky You" is a favourite.

Date: 2003-02-06 05:18 pm (UTC)As the head-honcho of BAT, I would say you'd make a smashing Pepper. ;)
The part's open if you ever change your miii-iiind.

Why hello there! *waves cheerfully*
Hmmm. Well. Perhaps I could be persuaded...(Flattery will get you everywhere y'know. ;-)
Thanks for such a charming compliment! *beams with pride*

Date: 2003-02-06 05:37 pm (UTC)Hee!
*flatterflatterflatter*
Pepper wouldn't actually have to post as often as, say, Aziraphale or DEATH do, because she's a relatively minor character. So, no pressure, or anything.
i'm so pleased with the response this little endeavor has gotten. More GO fans out there than I thought! w00t.

Oh bother.
Well, looks like I'll have to find an LJ code to use...you got me, I'm your Pippin Galadriel Moonchild. Whooot! :D

Ha! I knew the Bambi-eyes would get you.

I'm out of LJ-codes, unfortunately, but if I can scare one up I'll let you know. Email me if you manage to create a journal before I can: blowmy@hornofgondor.org. :-D
(MUAHAHAHAAH. FEAR ME!)

Alas, the bambi eyes get me every time.
Is that really your email address?? Its the coolest thing I've ever seen. *lol*

Date: 2003-02-06 05:54 pm (UTC)Oh, good! Okay, then go to town and create a journal, and then I'll add you to the community. You'll need to friend all the other characters so that they can comment in your journal. :)
And if you need an icon, I'm good at those. :)

I think that rpg must emit some kind of pheremone to make everyone want to join. We should probably alert the authorities. *grins*
no subject
Date: 2003-02-06 05:21 pm (UTC)LOL, pheremones. :)
Divine intervention! Or, well, demonic temptation. One or the other.

Date: 2003-02-06 06:27 pm (UTC)I'm the limerick, mired in muck.
I refuse to be bored or get stuck.
I like to offend,
But not, in the end,
As much as to thwart expectations.
The was a young man from China... but I think we all know where that one goes :P
no subject
Date: 2003-02-07 03:01 pm (UTC)Hehehe I've written some frightfully bad limericks.
Like this lil' gem:
Alone I sit
And wait for a bit
Of something called Divine Inspiration
But it never comes
So I am undone
For my poetry is a big pile of shit.
Or one of my personal favourites:
There once was a young man named Fry
And no matter how hard he'd try
His limericks he'd find
When they reached the last line
Had far too many words in them and didn't rhyme at all.
