"You'll need this fish in your ear."

Many thanks to afrai for the amazing Babel fish icon. Giving Bill a bit of a rest from being the default icon - we could, after all, do with a bit of color about the place.
Speaking of color... I need to make the color scheme of this thing less appallingly festive. Will probably ditch green and go with varying shades of red, and then throw in blue or something for links. Don't know yet.
So now that I've filled up all three icon slots... well.
Ruka said she'd make another one for me but didn't get it done before she went to Bermuda. Crowley is quite frankly the most expendable of the three at the moment (much as I like they guy...). Besides, I requested another GO ref. So it's all good.
May or may not go to Miami/UC game tomorrow. I'll be doing everything I can to get there, seeing as they're such rare events. seramercury, if you want to find me, listen for somebody telling the Miami players to bend their knees on foul shots. (It works!)

color rearranging

And so it was that the LJ became *thoroughly* less festive, and there was much rejoicing. (Yaaay.) Purple and blue are actually my favorite colors. I just find that a certain Horseperson isn't very happy if there's no red involved. She's saying she'll lay off on that when the icon's done. Not sure I trust that...
Just what I need now, another icon idea - I think it would be funny to see one that says "Please do not press this button again." Not necessarily for me, I just think it would be funny. That line just popped into my head a few minutes ago. I need to read the Trilogy again, or at least the first book.
Random Two Towers thought I forgot last night: Did they get Strom Thurmond to play the old king? Just wondering...
There really is nothing left for it. I'm gonna have to read those books sometime.
We have a tie for Quote of the Day.
1: "And I'd love to join you, I really would, but I don't want to think about the hangover that would cause. Maybe something milder? Like two gallons of straight whiskey, perhaps?" (Morgan, on Pan Galactic Gargle Blasters.)
2: "I feel like those people who point to Leviticus as hard damning proof that homosexuality is wrong, wrong, wrong. Only more aware of my absurdity." (afrai, who has been having too much fun rereading Lord of the Rings.)
While getting service hours today I hade a "have a nice doomsday!" sign. Was planning to color the background black, but now I'm not so sure. Eh.
Probably not actually going to basketball game tomorrow. Traffic and all that. 'Sides, Dad's not sure he'd be off work in time for us to get in and sit down. Ah well. It'll be on TV. I mainly want to go because it's the first Miami/UC game in years.

one part crackpot theory, one part survey.

LJ cut is your *friend!*
( crackpot theory of the day )

Aaand continuing on our merry adventure...
( the survey, as promised in the subject. )

movie swordfights

One more spot of random from me today. Can't hurt.
Best movie swordfight ever: Westley and Inigo, The Princess Bride, because they know what they're doing.
First runner-up: Darth Ted and Luke Bill, Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, because they DON'T know what they're doing. And the lightsabre sounds help. XD
::blinks:: Going to add some blue to the color scheme here. There's... too much red.
