Why I Blog

"Art in the blood is liable to take the strangest forms." 

~ Conan Doyle, by way of Robert Downey Jr. at the Golden Globes

Helen Mirren IS Jocasta

Took this picture of Helen Mirren looking fabulous - as always -  on the Golden Globes tonight. She is SO my Jocasta. Truly.


Verra Cool Scotland-Themed Websites

When you run a website, you do a lot of research googling... and you run into some tremendous websites.

I HAVE to mention a beautiful site I found recently, Scotland for the Senses. If you are a fan of the most beautiful country on earth, you'll love this site.

Another neat Scottish-themed site is A Wee Bit of Cooking that has tons and tons of Scottish recipes.

And if you are a fan of Scottish actors, you MUST check out Weirdly Obsessive Gerard Butler Fans. (Great job, Diane!) And might I say that I just saw him on the Golden Globes and they did NOT give that man enough dialogue or on-air time. I could pass up everyone else on the show (except Stephen Moyer, of course) and watch him all night. Seriously.

Two Words: Stephen Bonnet

Blog Changes

OK so I'm messing with the blog today. Feel free to make suggestions. Keep in mind I'm limited to whatever Blogger.com offers in the way of design.  In my next life I'm coming back as a (talented) graphic artist. Really.

Another Jamie Fraser Possibility

So I was searching for old-fashioned fonts and stumbled upon the Everything Anna blog. She gives a suggestion for a good Jamie Fraser: Max Martini. Wow, I'm impressed. I've never even heard of this guy! Verra red and a long, straight nose. And red stubble! I think I dig him. I'm still on board with Philip Winchester (until they find the right Scot lurking at a casting call in Edinburgh or Glasgow...) but this guy is not too shabby!

Just a wee picture of Philip Winchester

Spoiler Alert: Dinna read unless you have read VOYAGER. I thought it was high time I posted another pic of Philip Winchester - aka a great Jamie possibility. According to IMDB, he'll be 29 in March. Do you know what that means, Sassenachs? It means he could play Young Jamie - and Older Jamie. Mmm hmmm. Chew on THAT for a while - and let me know what you think!
