Okay, I'm going to break out a mini-spam here--I might do another linkspam later, but I'm trying to really get some work done today, and--this stuff can't wait.

JK Rowling talks in-depth about the Veil.

Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart on THE BEST MAGAZINE COVER EVER. I try to stay apolitical on this journal, so... just take it as a link about

MTV is saying now that he's going to play Tonto

*is British and thought Tonto was the horse...

[cleolinda]

I think Silver is the horse? Someone's got a horse named Silver.

The Lone Ranger's horse is Silver (Hi Ho Silver AWWWWWWWWWWWAY!!!!!!)

I.... I'm stumped what Tonto's horse is named. I *should* know...

(as an aside, am I the only one troubled by the thought of Tonto being played by anyone that's not Native American? Jay Silverheels broke a freaking glass ceiling playing that role, even if it WAS still very stereotyped...)

[rufinia]

Scout.

And no, you're not.

I hope it's BS. I'm praying it's BS.

[flamingtoilet]

More importantly, what is the name of the Lone Ranger's nephew's horse?

[rufinia]

Oh jesus.

I KNEW THIS.

Was it Thunder?

VICTOR!!!!

A Christmas Story FTW!

IIRC he actually is part Native American.

[cleolinda]

Yeah, I would have liked to see an actor from the Native American community actually get the role, but IIRC he did say he was part NA on Inside the Actors Studio that I actually saw.

[ericadawn16]

Doesn't he have Cherokee ancestors or something though?

[ninepointfivemm]

His great grandmother.

Thanks, I recalled something about a tattoo, but not the specifics.

*is also british and thought the same thing*

[shocolate]

Oh, thank god for that!!

*isn't insane*

[sweetsyren]

I know! It's a relief!

So let me get this straight:

Lone Ranger's horse is Silver.
Tonto (who is not a horse) has a horse called Scout.

Yes? No? Cookies?

[shocolate]

don't ask me - all I know is that George's dog was called Timmy...
