Photo of the Day!



For today's Photo of the Day, I just randomly scrolled through my photos with my eyes shut and clicked on one. This was it!

Oh no! It happened again! Millie got bored in the middle of the night and went a little Windows Movie Maker happy...

...and made another STRANGE video.

Seriously, you guys need to start having someone on Twitter all night long, just to talk to me...and keep me from the craziness! ;-D

Anyway, this video is made up of clips from many films and TV shows (but, NO narration by The Millie).

It's titled: How to Look Cool in Any Situation: Tips From Some Very Cool Guys (as you can see, I'm positively brilliant when it comes to original and amazing titles...NOT!)

Yeah, so that's about it. It's clips I had to get off of YouTube, so the quality may not be the best on all. BTW, does anyone know of a good, FREE, DVD ripping program?



I'm gonna go work on my gnome project some more. Ignore me.

OH, yeah, one more thing, my blog email has been freaking out the past week or so, so if you have sent me an email...I JUST got it, and will be responding shortly!

ALSO! Photos of the Day will be returning tomorrow!!! *And there was rejoicing in the streets*

I really don't know what I'm saying right now.

And THIS is why it is bad to let a 15 year-old have a blog for other people to read.

Okay, really! Goodnight/Good morning!

Now THIS is a "Wowzie Kazam, are you serious????" kind of moment!

Spiffy Design blog is having a $25 gift certificate (for Forever 21) giveaway!

This is like a once in a lifetime chance, people...don't let it pass you by.

Are you one of those people who ALWAYS wanted to see Houdini perform at the Hippodrome, but kept procrastinating until it finally got demolished?

Are you one of those people who still has their wedding gift for Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks...because you forgot to send it?

Are you one of those people who always wanted to say, "Pluto is the 9th planet in the Solar System"?

If you are one of those people...here is a way to redeem yourself. Enter the contest. You won't regret it.

{You can buy so many cool things for $25. Like this wool coat, or this cool 60ish coat, or this Rhodaish hat, or this just frankly amazing dress!}

Goodbye Pernell Roberts...

NOTE: This was supposed to be published yesterday, but I had some computer problems...




The brilliant and super-cool Pernell Roberts died Sunday night at the age of 81. That news was just so depressing to me.

Bonanza is one of my favorite shows. EVER. At the age of five, I would wait expectantly for reruns to come on every afternoon at 4'clock. I watched it every afternoon without fail, until it was taken off the air when I was about twelve (okay, there was about a month when I was six, I wasn't allowed to watch it because my older brothers dressed up like cowboys and had me pretend to be a saloon girl and bring them ice water...um...yeah...). When it finally came out on DVD this past fall, I was ecstatic. I watched the entire first season within a week or so of getting it.

Bonanza is just such a part of my life.

Pernell Roberts was the one of the coolest people ever. And his Adam was pretty much the coolest character ever. (I say this in retrospect, because when I was five I was in love with Little Joe...and HE was the coolest character! I am such a dork...)

But, Pernell was so much more than Bonanza. So much more. You should check out C.K. Dexter Haven's post on Pernell. Really great!

Probably my favorite non-Bonanza role of Pernell was in an episode of Wild Wild West. He plays a brilliant Irish villain (one of the most memorable villains on a show that can boast about Dr. Loveless) with plans to start an Indian uprising and take over Canada (mainly just to spite Queen Victoria).

I watched it for the zillionth time right after I heard the news of Pernell's death, Monday night.


He's really just too amazing in it. He pulls off a crazy Irish accent, a crazy mustache, and attempts to pull off his crazy plans, and he makes it all believable.

Of course, even as an evil villain (and he's really a great villain), I instinctively like Pernell. He was just too darn likable. I mean even when he's having The Kid and Heyes beat up and shot at on Alias Smith and Jones...he's still likable. That's quite a feat.

Rest in peace Mr. Roberts...there would be a large gap in classic television without you...
