Thrive to spite them

Now I want to watch vids as soon as I get home instead of work on packing.

sisabet's "Closer" was one of the first vids that grabbed the hell out of me. Then I went to Escapade, saw my first vid show, and was doomed.

Sisabet's Clint Eastwood was one of the first vids I saw and I loved it. She doesn't have it up on her website anymore and I can't find my backup of all my vids from that period.

The very first vid I watched was a Hard core logo vid to Woke up this Morning (the song used for the Sopranos theme song).

I think so too. It's another vid that I don't think is available online anymore. Luckily I have my back up disc of those vids. I'm hoping as I pack I'll find some of these discs that I'm missing.

I've also seen vids to that song for Farscape and Buffy. The Farscape one was good, but I think the Buffy vid lacked something.

One of the things I love about vids is seeing different vidders (from the same or different fandoms) interpert the same vids. And I try to watch the different vids.

Except draw the line at 17 vids in the same fandom to the same song.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Closer is spike and angel, it's amazing really.

First vid I saw at the LA F2F. Hooked.

The ST:TOS vid to Closer is jawdropping.

Like I need a hole in my head

::pops head in:: my first, and still one of my favorite vids, is the Firefly one done to Hallelujah, the Rufus Wainwright version. Bonibaru? I think.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Yep. Is Bonibaru.

Over in LFN-land, Michael's having a bad day:

Michael walked out into the evening, the obligatory rain fell steadily on the city streets as he borrowed his brother-in-law Jacques’ motorcycle and sped away. His hair rubber-banded away from his grief-stricken face allowing him a deportment that said, ‘don’t fuck with me’, suiting the man to a tee. The motorcycle’s protective headgear was a perfect fit with its black shiny plastic form guarding Michael’s noble head and he donned it following local helmet laws.

But no matter how bad it is, at least he's following local helmet laws.

Michael took a turn off the highway and came to a grabble road lined by a chain link fence.

Um.

Michael’s world turned dark in an instant, he became inanimate in the blink of an eye and as of that moment his worries became a mutt point.

It's a mutt point! Not even a dog cares about this point!

Repression, anguish, vicissitude, chaotic dreams, dramatic glimpses at inhuman behavior, adverse reactions, virtue-less obligations, these were all premonitions that lined Nikita’s mind as she toiled at some senseless task.

These were all...premonitions?

But what Madeline didn’t know was that Nikita and Michael were so in sink with each other that they communicated in a different level deeper than any other two humans.

Any other two humans EVER. In a sink.
