Dr Who and a flurry of memes

Apr 08, 2006 11:31

So, as I missed the second half of the first Dr Who season ('first' is obviously a relative term - the season of the 9th Doctor), I'm downloading it! So I now know who Captain Jack is, and that the BBC are a lot braver and more progressive than they used to be...:)

They're doing better than most US primetime shows anyway.

Wikipedia Meme! from marzie_pan:

Go to Wikipedia and look up your birth day (excluding the year).
List three neat facts, two births and one death, all including the year.

Facts!

1859 - Cornwall Railway opened across the Royal Albert Bridge linking the counties of Devon and Cornwall in England. Why oh why would they do that?!
1930 - British police arrest Mahatma Gandhi and place him in Yeravda Central Prison. Because sometimes people are stupid
1979 - Margaret Thatcher becomes the first woman Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Cos I still think it's kinda cool.

Births! (from the arts!)

1929 - Audrey Hepburn, Belgian actress (d. 1993)
1942 - Tammy Wynette, American musician (d. 1998)

Deaths.

1970 - Kent State victims:
Allison Krause
Jeffrey Miller
Sandra Scheuer (b. 1949)
William Schroeder (b. 1950) Because I actually remember this from GCSE History

And more memes becauee fishy13 went insane on Blogthings:

You Are 60% Weird

You're so weird, you think you're *totally* normal. Right?
But you wig out even the biggest of circus freaks!
How Weird Are You?

You Are a Dreaming Soul

Your vivid emotions and imagination takes you away from this world
So much so that you tend to live in your head most of the time
You have great dreams and ambitions that could be the envy of all...
But for you, following through with your dreams is a bit difficult

You are charming, endearing, and people tend to love you.
Forgiving and tolerant, you see the world through rose colored glasses.
Underneath it all, you have a ton of passion that you hide from others.
Always hopeful, you tend to expect positive outcomes in your life.

Souls you are most compatible with: Newborn Soul, Prophet Soul, and Traveler Soul
What Kind of Soul Are You?

You Are Italian Food

Comforting yet overwhelming.
People love you, but sometimes you're just too much.
What Kind of Food Are You?
