Light Cam Ponderings on News, Claim, Icon and Leap Time

[misscam]

I've been claimed??

I also know there's a fanfic claim comm out there and what-not. No ends to what you can claim, it seems.

Think this Times writer is a bit of a Doctor Who fangirl? (Review of the Chistmas Invasion episode.)

So there I was, idly reading the Norwegian newspaper "Dagbladet" online, when this caught my eye. It claims that Beckham is a great fan of Doctor Who and that RTD is planning to write him into an ep. Dagbladet's source appears to be The Daily Star, which isn't exactly the fountain of reliability, so I'm wondering - how much bull is this story?

Oh, and behold my first attempt at photoshop-making an icon:


New Year 'delayed' by leap second - how nifty is this? So, in today's meme, in the spirit of time that isn't:
You are given a leap minute, time that won't officially exist. There'll be no consequences of your action in this time, since it won't offically be counted or indeed exist in history. What would you do?

Spray-paint the presidential office bright neon pink, for starters. Also probably something more serious and violent like kill someone, if there are absolutely no consequences (i.e. person comes back to life?) , something like that.

I'll supply the cans.

I didn't read your previous post properly either (I'm trying to go spoiler-free in all my fandoms!woot!) but I kinda gathered that TCI was good.

I did manage tom dl it too and it's now sitting on my hard drive, along with all the older episodes I still haven0't watched. (Though I burnt a copy on DVD too..as a precaution, wouldn't want Mum to delete one..again).

As for the meme...I don't get it, sorry. I'm probably being very slow, but what does "There'll be no consequences of your action in this time, since it won't offically be counted or indeed exist in history" mean exactly?

I mean, what's the point of, say, using that leap minute to brainwash Berlusconi, if afterwards he simply goes back to being the same old git?;P

See it and join in the squeeing! Then read fics!

The joy of having done it? Besides, it having no consequences, you can ram a trout down his throat. Mmm, violence.

oh yeah, I was going to mention that in a comment somewhere, but got called away to dinner. Consider it a compliment.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Right... So what do you do with claimed me?

[peace-weasel.livejournal.com]

...I haven't really gotton that far into my planning. I think claimed you just sits in my user info along with my other claims.

[chem-nerd.livejournal.com]

I told you were being a goof, Sis.

If the leap minute is only a minute, there wouldn't be much time to do something, so in that brief time I would give my cousins a haircut, they really need it that bad. :x And another option would be to cover this statue in my town completely in tinfoil. Or both. ^_^

Kiss Will Sime. *sigh*

And punch my brother in the nose, really hard.


Tee Hee!

David BECKHAM is a Doctor Who fan?

... One more reason to start watching it...

[misscam.livejournal.com]

So it appears.

It really is brilliant, so who can blame him?

[starsong24.livejournal.com]

Download porn.

No, masturbate.

[lookingforwater.livejournal.com]

Kill Andrew Lloyd Webber.

[silvery-lass.livejournal.com]

Probably tell a few persons what I really think of them, since they would forget about it there would be no harm done.

[christinenj.livejournal.com]

Hmmm, as if 2005 didn't already seem to be the year that wouldn't end. Now they're extending it?

Hmmm, as for the meme? Kick George Bush in the shins. Hard. With steel toed boots.

Would I be able to teleport/whatever during this period of time? If so, I would kidnap (1) Peter Wentz, (2) Rupert Grint, and (3) Ray Toro. I would then do several things that are not exactly legal.

Or, you know, eat loads and loads of fudge, ham, turkey, chocolate, and Ben&Jerry's.



". . . tidal friction". My mind is not in the gutter. No, of course not.

You know what I did today? I watched the entire First Season of Doctor Who. Non-stop. Got it for Christmas, you know. My head is filled with Daleks shouting EXTERMINATE! and it's all YOUR fault.

So, um, where might one find this Who Christmas Special thingy, then?

[misscam.livejournal.com]

You okay to download big files?

*takes blame happily*

Dalek love!

[ekwy.livejournal.com]

Hmm... I'll ask my sister's boyfriend about that. He's the technical dude. *sighs*

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Oki doki. Because if you can, I can set you up with TCI.

*Puts on Ninja costume and spies on Cam*

Must...get...TCI!

[lacontessamala.livejournal.com]

Me. A sledgehammer. An open field. A hip-hop soundtrack. This stoopid, slow, glitchy, crappy computer.

Any questions?

Damn, it feels good to be a gangsta.
