Totally nicked from jacquie_o, because with my desk as it looks right now; this should be interesting. *Grabs the measuring tape and goes about finding the nearest book*

Grab the nearest book.
* Open the book to page 56.
* Find the fifth sentence.
* Post the text of the next two to five sentences in your journal along with these instructions.
* Don't dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST.

Much of the time, you will have the correct intuition when you think of "the object box" rather than the technically more accurate "the object reference stored in box".

Big Java, 3rd Edition by Cay Horstmann

After this one, I promise I will stop my pathetic fangirling. Just wanted to be a copycat watch something to make me smile.

Enjoy!

Heath Ledger is dead?

WTF???


No, that's just so wrong!

Seriously. They've just said it on the news. Scientist and researchers have reached the conclusion that Denmark is indeed: The Happiest Place on Earth. See for yourself here.

One thing I'm wondering though, is why are they circling Denmark, when mentioning that Iceland is the #4 Happiest Place on Earth..?

Okay, I know I've squeed about Bionic Woman here before, but... fact is, that the quality of that show has gone steadily down. And no, it's not just because Katee Sackhoff isn't a regular there any more. The entire thing is turning... weak, to say the least. The acting, the script, all of it.

Anyway. Finally, FINALLY, a TV channel that is somewhat accessible to most people, has decided to pick up a new, American show. And what are they choosing? Yup! You got it! Bionic Woman. The show whose quality is steadily going down, not to mention, most likely not to reappear after the writers' strike *headdesk*

WHY??

That does not make sense!

There are so many other shows they could pick up. Shows that are GOOD, shows that we know will continue. Alright, granted, I'll finally get to see some REAL Katee Sackhoff on Danish TV, but... what about Life? That's a good show. No, sorry, that's an EXCELLENT show, even has good looking actors and actresses to boot AND it'll get picked up next season as well. Then there's Battlestar Galactica, which - granted - isn't new, but it's damn good!

This, ladies and gentlemen, is why I don't really watch Danish TV. I get my TV series elsewhere.

Okay, so... I got it yesterday, finished watching it today, and I just have to say ( Battlestar Galactica Razor Spoilers! Don't say I didn't warn you! )

Okay, and now... I have a house to clean because I really don't want to waste my weekend on that *G*

( Sorry, I just can't help it! )

Been productive today, yeah, I have :)

After a period of frustration of not being able to really do anything, I seem to have refound my mojo for making jewelry, which has resulted in:

( Ta-da! )

OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!!!

I’m sitting here with the October 2007 issue of SciFi Magazine, and I have sooooooo much work that needs to get done here at home before I can allow myself to read it, but… but… but…

Just flipping through it quickly, I found a TOTALLY(!!!!) hot Katee Sackhoff on the cover, gorgeous pics of her, Jamie Bamber and Mary McDonnell at the Battlestar Galactica Celebration Screening and Fourth Season Sneak Preview. There’s TONS of stuff about Bionic Woman, which partly includes several full page ad pics for it with the loverly Michelle Ryan (Good gods, that one green and one blue eye… *dies*), there’s a focus on Sackhoff, because she’s part of two of the shows airing in the States this fall, sneak peaks from BSG season four, and… and… and…

*squees*

Since it’s the issue about the fall shows on SciFi, that also means New Amsterdam. So imagine my squeeing when I got to spread about that show. A FULL SPREAD ON NEW AMSTERDAM AND NICOLAJ COSTER WALDAU!!! There’s even a gorgeous picture of him there… several in fact, but one is FULL PAGE!!

And Heroes and Ghost Whisperer and Supernatural…

Man, for somebody who hardly watches TV, I sure do watch a lot of shows. The Magical Elf Delivery Service will be busy this fall *nods* mm, hmm.

Just a reminder that Round 1 sign ups for bonking_tonks will close at 11:59 pm EST tonight. So grab your claims while you can!

We've gotten some great pairings so far but there are plenty more to be had! Remember, there's plenty of time to write/draw -- nothing's due till January so no worries about conflicts with the Holiday exchanges!

Let's start the New Year off with some hot Tonks lovin'!

Damian Lewis as Bill Weasley, Mick Jagger as Mundungus Fletcher, and Michael Gambon as Aberforth Dumbledore in the future production of the film version of DH?

Hell yeah!

All I can say, is that I really agree with the results MTV got from their recent poll.

Now all we need is for Gareth Lewis to be cast as Charlie Weasley, and all will be well with the world *G*

We now return to our regularly scheduled noseblowing. We thank you for paying attention *bows and exits right*

Harry Potter & the Order of the Phoenix


*sigh*

What a disappointment.

Yeah, this is just a minor public announcement, that I've decided to jump on the bandwagon and change my LJ username. Why? well, I wanted something more private/personal and not tied to one fandom in particular. Aside from that, well, then ever since I got my LJ I've been either mistaken for or acused of imitating scribbulus_ink which has never been my intention at all.

So,... katesque it is :)
