... and I think I'm about skip-4000 behind on my flist, so if anything big happened while I was in ether purgatory, could you let me know?

  • To celebrate my shiny new modem and its thrilling ability to, like, work, I headed over to my emotional e-home (where I mostly only lurk, but still I miss them when I can't see them) and found this:

    http://echosphere.net/star_trek_insp/star_trek_insp.html

    Desperately adore despair.com + first fandom was Star Trek => heaven. Personal fave? "I can't hear you over the sound of how awesome I am."

  • Also found this, from a fic I know nothing about and which may be freaking Shakespeare otherwise, except for this jarring little bit:

    "...his hands to move south until they were working Draco’s lower back, then the perfect globs of his arse."

    I'm trying to decide whether that's better or worse than "[Lee] took him deep into his mouth, breathing in the tantalizing scent of muck from his groin."

    Lest anyone think I'm mocking the authors, I'm not. We've all made typos like those. My personal faves from my own fics are "[Draco] had indeed spent six years in and out of prison, following his father's footsteps with a little less flare," (did y'all know Lucius was an arsonist? I didn't!) and "Lucius' tone was imminently reasonable." (Look out!! He's about to be reasonable!!)


  • And, from somewhere on my flist, here's a neat video: US Muslim Film Contest: A Land Called Paradise

    I must confess it never occurred to me that the words "Muslim country star" could be written together (probably because I live in Ottawa and there's a huge Muslim community here, but we're all too cold to sing country music), but hey, you know, whatever works :)

    ETA: It took me forever to find the lyrics to the song, so in case anybody else was curious, here they are:

    I wanna live in a land called paradise
    I wanna go to the valley of the King
    I wanna live in a land called paradise
    Wanna see the birds fly and I wanna hear the angels

    Sing the praises of my Lord so far above
    As I move poetically with the struggle I fall in love
    I look to the left I look to the right and all I gaze upon
    Reveals the source of flowers rainbows and the dew at dawn
    Some see before and some see in and some see after
    I let my sight pierce the chains and see the master

    (Chorus)
    I wanna live in a land called paradise
    I wanna go to the Valley of the King
    I wanna live in a land called paradise
    Wanna see the birds fly and I wanna hear the angels sing

    So many times in my life I ask myself the question
    What got me brought me into all this mess I’m swimming in
    But pain is not and neither harm in the pool of bliss
    So slap me with your hand or kiss me with your softest kiss
    Tell me that you love me or that you don’t like me now
    Tell me you invite me or that you don’t want me around
    I won’t cry over a world that can’t change my life
    I’ll put my money on what lies ahead in paradise

    (Chorus)
    I wanna live in a land called paradise
    I wanna go to the Valley of the King
    I wanna live in a land called paradise
    Wanna see the birds fly and I wanna hear the angels sing

    I try to do right and love my wife and trade and pray and talk
    I can be anywhere doing anything and I’m mindful of God
    I’m pleased in good and happy in harm and now I realize that I already live in a land called paradise

    (Chorus)
    I wanna live in a land called paradise
    I wanna go to the valley of the king
    I wanna live in a land called paradise
    Wanna see the birds fly and I wanna hear the angels
    I wanna live in a land called paradise
    I wanna go to the valley of the king
    I wanna live in a land called paradise
    Wanna see the birds fly and I wanna hear the angels sing.
