Not that it's very interesting now, but I have scribbled down "How I found the photos--seven years to the day" as a reminder to talk about it, so: I had installed the program Need3Space because I have millions, literally millions, of files on my computer, and I was hoping to clear anything temporary off for a little breathing space. N3S doesn't

Another part of the Gilliam curse is the fact that Jonathan Pryce had arranged for River Phoenix to meet Gilliam on the day he died...

I actually got a migraine from being so upset about Heath...R.I.P. :(

Oh, Jesus.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Gilliam part of Monty Python?

Yup -- the American, the animator, Arthur's horse in Holy Grail.

You may have had this before, but this is Viggo's Statement (needs that capital S), via MSNBC and viggo_daily

Viggo Mortensen, on his best actor nomination for “Eastern Promises”
“There were a lot of candidates and a lot of the awards shows or organizations this year have had different mixes of people. It was nice to see Tommy Lee Jones in there. He hadn’t been in so much of the mix and when I saw his name come up and there was only one name left to go, I thought, ‘Naah, well, there’s no way (I’ll be nominated).’ So to be honest, I was quite surprised.”

Viggo Mortensen, nominated for best actor for “Eastern Promises”
“No, if there’s a strike I will not go but I have a feeling they’ll solve it. I hope they do. I’m sure my mom would like to see me on TV and so forth, but if there’s a strike I’m not crossing the line.”

'I’m sure my mom would like to see me on TV'

HOW EFFING ADORABLE IS THAT.

Viggo + Kaylee = explosion of cuteness.

Re: X-Files set pics. Wow, actual filming and creatures. I can feel a spark that is teeny!maudlina circa 1999 getting ready to stir.

Aww, I'm glad the linkspam is therapeutic. But if the muse finds you tonight, let her sing -- there is something to be said for pouring out your sorrows profitably.

And if you want the stream to become a torrent, let me recommend the best, saddest song written since 1981. Or maybe it just resonates with me, I dunno. It may help. There's a cleansing in giving passion to the pain. You were right about "Cells" and "Roar!" (DO WANT DO WANT) so I figure I owe ya one.

[alliemolloy]

That's such a beautiful song. :(

[cleolinda]

Aww, yay. I don't have many Jonathan Coulton songs, but the ones I have I really like.

[sigma7]

This one would be my favorite except that some days I can't listen to it (and some days I have to listen to it). I like that "Still Alive" works both in his and GLaDOS's voice. "Code Monkey" hits close to home, "Re: Your Brains" is just adorable, "Ikea" and "Fuzzy Old Lobster" are great, but this, this was the song that turned him from geek-musician to musician-geek for me. He is the technarch's troubadour, the minstrel of the information age, and I salute him.

Is Batman Going To Die

That there is an astounding case of bad timing.

Also: yay, comedy Cloverfield. I think we all need something to laugh about right now.

[crescent_gaia]

Oh thank gods, somebody else thought that as well. I'm not going insane.
