Meme time--been a while. They don't really do memes like this on tumblr, sadly. Gakked from hawk_soaring

There, I'm not paying for LJ anymore and as of 10 Sep it'll go back to whatever unpaid is. I think I mostly lose my icons. But I hardly use LJ now and don't see the need to pay for it. Plus, money's tight now with reduced work hours and whatnot.

I'm not leaving LJ...no more so than I already have.

We'll get rid of Prentiss. Paget Brewster is quitting at the end of this season is up, when her contract is done. Yay! After her attitude when she was forced back on the show, I'm not surprised.

But given that I haven't watched beyond the first couple eps this season--I have to wonder if the show is too far gone to save now.

Hmm, Ed's gone so maybe they could bring Elle back. THAT would be awesome. Or maybe Seaver. Hahaha. It'll be interesting to see what happens.

Oh, and big Fuck YOU to all the people saying Criminal Minds should end because she's leaving. They survived quite well without her the first time and will be even better this time around.

Megaupload shut down, owners arrested.

Don't even NEED sopa or pipa do we? And fml, I'd just paid for a year's service with them. And they were the most consistent in terms of d/ling for me.

A timely and poignant reminder from Terry Kelly:


Story of the vid:
"On November 11, 1999 Terry Kelly was in a drug store in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. At 10:55 AM an announcement came over the stores PA asking customers who would still be on the premises at 11:00 AM to give two minutes of silence in respect to the veterans who have sacrificed so much for us.

Terry was impressed with the stores leadership role in adopting the Legions two minutes of silence initiative. He felt that the stores contribution of educating the public to the importance of remembering was commendable.

When eleven oclock arrived on that day, an announcement was again made asking for the two minutes of silence to commence. All customers, with the exception of a man who was accompanied by his young child, showed their respect.

Terrys anger towards the father for trying to engage the stores clerk in conversation and for setting a bad example for his child was channeled into a beautiful piece of work called, A Pittance of Time. Terry later recorded A Pittance of Time and included it on his full-length music CD, The Power of the Dream.

Thank You to the Royal Canadian Legion Todmorden Branch #10 and Woodbine Height Branch #2 for their participation in the Video.

I haven't watched it yet--am going to d/l it at work when I get there. (It fucking takes 3 minutes or less during not peak times. Yes, that's THREE minutes.) Then I may watch it. Maybe.

I'll be honest, I'm leery of watching it because I have a gut feeling that whatever happens in this ep is going to make me hate CM with the heat of a million fiery suns (or they'll jump the shark). I mean, they've brought Prentiss back--that's worth half a million, right there. Worst thing ever. I'd rather have Gideon back--at least that would be interesting--especially seeing him interact with Rossi. *heh* I am happy that JJ is back, cus at least SHE is cool. And kick ass. :D

This is the first time I haven't watched the broadcast of a CM season premiere. *sigh*

Not that I was really using it, but it seems google is suspending accts of people they THINK are using psuedonyms--and while my user name is technically my birth name, it's not my legal name (surname); and while you can supposedly get your stuff back if you show google that it's the name you use elsewhere....

Google can fuck off--they don't require you to use your legal name so wtf does it matter what your psued is?

I'm quite happy over at tumblr and here, not on FB much anymore and twitter once in a while...

Go look at your blog journal. Find the last Fandom-related thing you posted. The characters in that post are now your team-mates in the Zombie Apocalypse.

How fucked are you?

My last fannish post had James May and Richard Hammond.... Which, maybe not the best choices, but I think we'd do okay. James can handle a gun (and a machete); Richard can drive pretty fucking fast, they're both pretty handy with fixing/making things...plus, I'll bet between them, they could build us a couple flame throwers. And they'd probably work, since Jeremy wouldn't be involved.
