geekyThe speech accent archive. Go to town, y'all.
Speaking of accents, you will recall that Scottish and/or "some kind of British" was overwhelmingly the favorite the last time I asked. Well, tonight you've got your Sophie's Choice: Clive Owen on Conan and Gerard Butler on Craig Ferguson. In the same time slot. (NNNNGHHHHH!) I think I'm going with Butler, if only because Ferguson is also Scottish, and that should be frickin' hilarious. However, I am counting on y'all to find me digitized clips afterwards, because Owen's the A guest on Conan and Butler's the B guest on Ferguson, so I'm probably going to end up seeing neither of them in a frantic channel-flipping attempt to see both of them. Woe unto my not having a TiVo.
Something I found at Snarkfest (WARNING! Do not click unless you have at least an hour to waste! I'm serious!): Paperdoll Heaven. Omg I want Keira's cloooooooothes
From Gawker via Snarkfest: Ethan Hawke tools it up over in the Amazon book reviews:
*****I’m STILL laughing and crying.I assume you've heard about the Pat O'Brien thing, yes? ("The [perma-tan host of Access Hollywood and The Insider] checked into rehab Sunday, just as an embarrassing string of dirty voice-mail messages, which expressed a taste for hookers, cocaine and adventurous (if possibly unhygienic) sex, became public. His reps do not deny that O'Brien made the calls.") Well,
This wonderfully insightful book presented me with quite a conundrum: laughter, or tears? As an actor, I can tell you: there’s no tougher emotion in the catalogue raisonne of the well-trained performer than mirth…or grief. And as the author of two hard-hitting novels I can back that up by saying it’s tough to express sadness and hilarity verbally. But this wonderfully insightful book had me rolling from side to side with belly-laughs, then scrunched into a tiny ball, wracked with sobbery. I don’t know how Foer does it. I am laughing now, as I write these words, but I can feel the tears backed up a couple of jobs in the old emotional queue. I’m buying extra copies of this book for all my friends, especially those who need help urging forth difficult emotions.
jess_d_ripper took a bullet for us and transcribed the voice mails currently floating around the internet. Warning: skeevy to the max. You may crave the sweet release of death afterwards--even more so if you've ever *watched* Access Hollywood. Also, various gossip sites are reporting other O'Brien shenanigans that are just--beyond words, people. You're Elizabeth Bennett of Pride and Prejudice by
Jane Austen!

Report from the home front: Very tired and spacy today. I had a good point in class but frittered it away on confused babbling. Seriously, I sounded either drunk or in need of medical assistance, I think. It's fatigue, nothing serious. Next week's my spring break, so maybe I'll have some uninterrupted Come to Jesus time with the book. Hoping to wrap Braveheart up soon. Like, yesterday soon.
