Wednesday morning linkies

[annathepiper]

The Hugo nominees are making the rounds of my Friends list, and the full list is up on makinglight. I note with great pleasure that Serenity is one of the contenders for Best Dramatic Presentation, Long Form--and that three, count 'em, THREE episodes of Ninth Doctor are up for Best Dramatic Presentation, Short Form, along with "Pegasus" from second season BSG. I may have to fill out at least a partial ballot this year just to get in a vote for Serenity. :D And much as I like me some BSG, I think all three of the Doctor contenders ("Dalek", "The Empty Child"/"The Doctor Dances", and "Father's Day") beat out "Pegasus" for me, though I will grant that "Father's Day" and "Pegasus" are close contenders. Me, I'm hoping for "The Empty Child"/"The Doctor Dances", because day-em, that was a hell of a story.

Meanwhile, for the GBS fans on my Friends list, you should really go read the latest post of From the Road on greatbigsea.com, in which Alan The Doyle relates his adventures in early morning cell phone disturbances and winding up naked in a hotel hallway. Bwahaha! ^_^

And also, snurched from technoshaman, I have to bring you this link which relates that Cecilia Fire Thunder, President of the Oglala Sioux Tribe on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota, is deeply, deeply pissed at the abortion ban they've passed there. And has vowed to open a Planned Parenthood clinic on her own land within reservation boundaries. All I have to say about this is GO CECILIA! Also, 'Fire Thunder'? FABULOUS surname. ^_^

Cecilia Fire Thunder is fabulous. So is her name. :)

[annathepiper]

Sounds to me like she's living up to her name, too!

Is it really awful of me that I was thinking "oh, to have been stepping out of the elevator at that very moment"....hahahahha.

Given that that thought has most likely crossed the mind of every single red-blooded Alanophile in GBS fandom, no, I don't think that's awful at all. >:)

(Why no, I haven't been envisioning sleep-dazed, shampoo-y, soaking wet, wide-eyed Alan. Nuh uh. Nope. Not in the slightest.)

~raises hand~ And quite a few of the Shantyfans, as well, I must confess ;)

Hee! Yeah, one of the many benefits of having multiple lovely B'ys to choose from. >:)
