Heads up people!

Heads up people! As [livejournal.com profile] chlex kindly pointed out, if you currently have a paid account, you can get an extra week for free over HERE, due to the recent site issues, so go and get yours now.


Also THIS little, highly informative and incredibly articulate rant about the proper use of the 'passive voice' in writing is just priceless. Someone (sorry I can no longer remember who it was) pointed this out and I just chuckled through it.


Finally, how wonderful is that interview with John Barrowman (Captain Jack on Doctor Who and Torchwood)? I haven't laughed so hard in ages. I've never seen an interview so uncensored and JB is so open. Oh I love him so. Figures I'd fall for the gay ones. :P

He walks his dog in a baby carriage, is going to marry his boyfriend (together fo over 15 yrs), talks about being gay and how Jack is 'omnisexual', the look on his face when they play this terrible movie he was in with a giant shark, and just such a fabulously entertaining interview. It was gleeful and cheered me up when I was in need of cheer. Yay! *hugs him*

What interview?! Also, I actually liked the last TW ep - still crazy crack!TV, but the flashbacks and the overall story were better than before. Stretched John's acting muscles too, which is always good!

Hmm. Assuming the last ep was the fairy one, I didn't like it as much as other ones. The flashbacks were good, but the ending was just plain weird. I think I suspend disbleif better for aliens than fairies. :P

Overall the crack value in that show just keeps me coming back. It kinda fits into the whole "so bad it's fabulously good" category and I mean that in a good way.

The interview is labelled Jonathan Ross(?) and seems to be a British chat show, likely cabel or on very late because it's totally uncensored.

Thanks for the tip about LJ ! I totall did not know this!!!

And yeah, the interview is hillarious. I love the Brits and their humour... :)

Hmm, some people in my flist who've met his partner say that he's as gorgeous! I love John - you know he's coming to Sydney next year for the FSF thingy and it's only $65... I'm thinking of getting my tickets before I head off to Europe!

:)

Yeah, I did know that. They offered tickets at the SG con we were at, but I hadn't seen TW at the time and I've only just started watching DW. I'm terribly tempted now though. If you decide to get tickets, let me know.
