They're building a Harry Potter theme park...

Words cannot express this "adult's" state of mind at this.

Speechless. Wonderful speechlessness.

Dreams that I didn't even have can sometimes come true.

For those of you who have lived in Hyde Park, what do you miss most?

No, it's not the country, it's a movie directed by Terry Gillian. Interesting premise: dystopia where bureacracy reaches new heights combined with brutal military dictatorship.

I'm done! I'm done, I'm done! I gave my lecture today (clocked about 53 minutes). I finished most of my sentences, spoke confidently and only tripped up a few times. Afterwards, this girl in my program told me that we had to get coffee and talk. She told me that I have to read Promethea. :) So if one person thought it was that good, then I ( Read more... )

They were freaking awesome! I had seen them once before at the Irish Heritage Festival. Very different circumstances. There were no elderly drunken sailors trying to dance to the music (teehee) nor little girls trying to mimic older girl's fancy irish dancing. Here, Lunasa was the main event (damn straight). And the major flutist, Kevin Crawford, ( Read more... )
