Very saddened by Casey Kasem's death this past day. Although I didn't grow up with him as Crystal and many others did, I longed to be able to see Scooby-Doo for years before I was finally able to. And JP made me a couple of tapes of the Top 40 show. I was thinking I should get those out again for a listen ( Read more... )

LOL. Apparently this is International Skeptics Day? That is pretty hilariously awesome. I celebrate with a photoset for Hamilton on Tumblr. Also, I have two Wesley photosets and a bit of H.M. Wynant ( Read more... )

I did the first part of the Bonanza-related fic for theme #12, as planned. I am so proud of it! I rarely do such intense and deep character monologues anymore, as I usually rely more on character dialogue and action to tell the stories. I don't always like that, as I love monologuing, but it doesn't always seem to fit. For this story, however, it's ( Read more... )

Three hours to sew a tie for the plushie. Oy vey. It wouldn't have taken so long, but I kept having trouble with it. At least it looks purty; nice soft sapphire blue satin. And I tied a real tie-knot, or tried to; I'm not sure the material liked it very well. I used the one I thought would work the best ( Read more... )

Well, I finally did buy The Racket. It's a good film and I still quite like it, although it pales in comparison to the other movie Robert Mitchum and William Talman made together, One Minute to Zero. In The Racket the characters feel like archetypes. In One Minute to Zero they're a lot more fleshed out and feel so real you could reach out and touch ( Read more... )

I've made some edits to the previous post; upon thinking further I realized there were a couple of other answers to check off, plus, I wanted to say more on one of the Twilight Sparkle questions ( Read more... )

I've had this random bittersweet story idea for a day or so. It would involve Hamilton in court, noticing this old lady who has been showing up in the spectators' gallery for a while now. He finally goes over and asks her out of curiosity if he can help her with something. She tells him that she heard about him some time back and came to L.A. to ( Read more... )

I find it interesting that, while I've been fascinated by Perry and Hamilton's unique relationship for years, and I've been interested in William Talman for the same length of time, I'd never actually reached the point of actively fangirling over him. (Although I have fangirled over how awesome his and Mr. Burger's behavior and personality are ( Read more... )

That was a fun quiz in the last post. I got to reminisce on old favorites and even talk about a couple of series I normally don't. And I really am idly wondering if sometime I'd like to try writing that Old West AU fic with Sephiroth and Aerith that I dreamed about years ago. I'm nuts about Westerns, always have been, and the scenario in that dream ( Read more... )
