Happy Birthday, Angus

Happy Birthday, Nora

Hi Nilly.

I'm feeling all comfy cozy in Natter this morning with all the Dr. Who discussion. I've never watched an episode, so I can't claim to be a fan. What I've found though, during my time online, is that I am a major Dr. Who fan Fan.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Well, of course. I mean, have you seen us?

Speaking of Due South, Ple, I will be sending you Slings & Arrows so you can revel in Paul Gross being insane and sexy and charismatic.

Ooh, Plei, can I borrow when you're done?

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Oooh! The homemade "Whip It" vid was adorable in the way only 5th graders can be. I hope their parents keep it around for embarrassing the kids in another 7 years or so, when their dates for the prom come to the house....

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday Nora!

The Doctor Who neep is amusing. I got to see two eps of the most recent series, and want more.(Supposedly amazon.ca will have DVDs at Xmastime) Also saw part of a behind-the-scenes about the companions when we were in Glasgow.

What is even happening?

It seems the teen who hacked into Paris Hilton's cell phone is from Massachusetts, and has been sentenced. I expected to feel badly for him, because of the terms of his sentence:

While in custody and during two years of supervised release, the teenager is prohibited from possessing or using any computer, cell phone or other equipment capable of accessing the Internet.

I would imagine it is pretty tempting to get a looksee at a celebrity's phone numbers, at that age, especially.

Then I saw this:

The charges included hacking into Internet and telephone service providers, theft of personal information and posting it on the Web, and making bomb threats to high schools in Florida and Massachusetts, all over a 15-month period.

[...]

Prosecutors said the teenager's first crime was committed in March 2004, when he e-mailed a bomb threat to a Florida school. The school was closed for two days while officials investigated and ruled the threat a hoax.

In January, the teenager hacked into T-Mobile's computer system and looked up account information of its customers, including Hilton.

This spring, he arranged "with one or more associates" to make a bomb threat to a Massachusetts school, prosecutors said. They said an investigation of the teen's associates is continuing.

Not feeling so sorry for him, now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Happy birthday, Nora! I thought I saw Tom on the street the other day, but I guess it wasn't him.

Happy birthday, Angus! I haven't seen you here in yonks, but maybe the vibes will carry.
