So does anyone on my friendslist want to talk to me about British things? For that manner, was anyone a queer British teenager in the 80s/early 90s? Or know anyone who was? I have this idea that other countries might be different than my own.

Alright, friends and friendslisters - I am stuck trying to find one particular clip for my DW/TW vid and I can't seem to get around it.

Has anyone seen a clip where Jack is walking away in his big flappy trenchcoat and he turns around and looks back towards the camera? Because I would really enjoy having that.

Also, different project, but say I was to be making an Owen character assassination study. How creepybadwrong is it fair to make him? Thoughts? Because I'm pretty sure I can make a vid that makes him look bad enough that I have to post warnings.

Hey, that guy from that band from Rebelde came out. About four months ago. Some day, by god, I will get Spanish cable and make the fandom leap. Because telenovelas need the liberating power of internet gay romance?

By the way, since I'm in the library frantically harddriving fanfic - mostly [livejournal.com profile] nostalgia_lj crackfic - does anyone remember the Due South story where Ray was all angst-ridden and drunkenly attempted the manlove with a bartender, and then was all "Fraser, we cannot be gay together" and Fraser went "you were doing it wrong, you jackass" and then they lived in Canada?

No?
Hmph.

Have a nice day, y'all.

ETA: True North by [livejournal.com profile] crysothemis, NC-17. Guys, I seriously spent all day wondering about this.

I am totally jinxing myself by asking this, but would any of y'all out in flist land be up for a lightning-fast vid beta tonight? Possibly even realtime on gtalk or AIM? My target time for having the beta draft ready is around 9 p.m. EDT, but I'll be up later than that for sure.

I whined and swore off this project, and then it started working again, and now I'm back to the overoptimistic but still heartening idea of being done and posted before I leave town. The vid is )

Okay, does anyone just happen to have eps of Dr Who s1 & 2 lying around + a hankering to ysi them to me? I'm usually willing to suck it up and wait for utorrent, but I'm on a real-life deadline (job starts on friday = no more five-hour vidding sprees) and I'm worried that I'm going to run out of time. Also, the Recent Troubles in some of the Doctor Who communities seem to have slowed things down a lot.

I have these episodes ) already.

I figure it's worth a try to ask. Comments are screened in case of very good luck. And hey, I'm not above offering fic or a minivid as bribe, though (see: deadline) it'll take me a while to deliver it.

That aside, I'm about halfway through the song. In between church & garden and singing class last night I did about four hours of work in the coffeeshop, and that really is the perfect location: not too quiet, glare-free, and with a potentially unlimited stream of sugar-based beverages. I do believe I will do that again.

ETA: Wow. Episodes totally found. Thanks!

1) Hey, so: does anyone have recommendations for chatty, informative books about:
a) Jerusalem politics in the year 0
b) the Protestant reformation and major dramatis personae thereof
c) medieval cult of the saints and wacky behavior associated with religious orders?
ETA: or, actually, anything about any episodes of wacky religious factionalism in judeo-christian history at all. I should take this to a reference librarian so that they can roll their eyes and refer me to the entirety of Western history.


2) Does anyone know exactly where Rodney McKay lived as a child? Does anyone have a good guess? I haven't been to Canada since I was six months old, so my geography is, sadly, rusty.

Also, I may be more familiar with the geography of Nunavut than anything closer to the U.S. border.

Anyway, if anyone can point me towards any episodes at all, besides McKay and Mrs. Miller, where Rodney discusses his early life, I would be very grateful.
