In the books, it's a wizard called Radagast who sends the moth.
Spike: Or maybe Captain Forehead was feeling a little less special. Didn't like me crashing his exclusive club, another vampire with a soul in the world. Angel: You're not in the world, Casper.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
(Ya know, if they were being all that "responsible" for kids and shit in the rerelease of ET, they would have replaced the Reeses Pieces with banana chips.)

What I would love to see is Legolas hearing the gulls. Yes, it would involve a bit of explanation of the sea-longing of the Elves, but it would be so worth it to give him a bit of character development.
Oh, me too, Kathy. That part always makes me so sad.

move out and draw fire
(And replaced the D&D game with dominoes, cause D&D makes you go all Columbine).

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I clicked on the wrong thread. I was so confused.

Over on lj somebody linked to this page which has sound samples of VM reading his poetry some in English, some in Spanish and one in Danish.
I sent it to a friend who is fluent in Spanish and she was surprised by how very Argentinian his Spanish is. (I mean, she knew but it's not the same 'til you hear it, right?)
I figured that there might be some people here interested in hearing how Argentinian his Spanish is too.

Someone said (here, I think) that his Spanish was so regional, you could almost tell the block he grew up on. I can't imagine having that good an ear, or that distinct an accent.
