I KNOW! I spent all day yesterday in a funk because I listened to the Wentworth scenes. UGH. DRAGONFLY IN AMBER SPOILER ALERT: I am so ANNOYED at Claire for giving Jamie a hard time for wanting to kill him. Girlfriend should stop worrying about the future and let the present (ugh - which is also the past) HAPPEN. How could she want Jack Randall breathing after knowing what he did to Jamie?? Sorry Frank. And hey - if Frank never existed than you don't have to worry about having left his sorry historian ass in the FIRST place!<br /><br />Anonymous: Totes agree. Dougal wanted Claire from Day 1 and I canna blame him. She was a fine piece of 20th century arse. He knows a good thing when he sees it!<br /><br />Sara - you make a good point about Dougal only loving himself - and that maybe it's possible he only wanted Geilie for the money. I guess I'm going off the commentary Claire made when she talked about Geilie dying; she said there was a flicker of sadness on his face (paraphrasing). <br /><br />Miranda - again - totally agree. I canna stand the thought of Jamie and Jack SINGING to each other. Or about each other. Or near each other. I just can't wrap my head around that thought at all. <br /><br />Melissa: "Cause the crazy bitch (said with love)" just truly MADE MY DAY! Absolutely hilarious. And TOTALLY agree - (Dragonfly and Drums spoiler alert): I hated that Dougal died. I wished he could have continued through the series. Can you imagine him in the US?? Visiting The Ridge?!? HAHAHAHAHA!<br /><br />Megs - YES YES YES YES YES YES YESSSSSSS!! (screamed like Meg Ryan in When Harry Met Sally). <br />I have said that about Jared P before. I either blogged or maybe I just emailed Tracey, Jenn M and Shannon. Cat eyes - big guy (6'5"), long, straight nose, good actor, could possibly do both young and older Jamie. Only one issue - can he do an accent? I ultimately want a Scot for the role. But it's fun to find new possible actors and he's on my short list. He can do funny and endearing and tough - all at the same time.Purgatory Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04206226666250028550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-40350109838335170362010-07-28T12:42:53.270-04:002010-07-28T12:42:53.270-04:00Ok, sorry that this is somewhat unrelated... But,...Ok, sorry that this is somewhat unrelated... But, while walking on the treadmill, my husband was flipping channels and he briefly stopped on TNT. After getting a glance at Jared Padaleski (although I didn't know his name at the time) I nonchalantly said, what show is this? <br /><br />So, he’s on a show called Supernatural, has anyone watched it? I’ve never seen it- except the 2 seconds I saw this little hottie… And, I think that he has THE BEST “Fraser cat eyes” I’ve ever seen. Oh, and a super hot Jamie body. Obviously the nose is wrong, but I just wanted to share some links with you, see if you agree about the body and the Fraser cat eyes?<br /><br />Here are 2 'body' pictures:<br />http://media.photobucket.com/image/Jared%20Padalecki/EricsFairy/jared_padalecki_01.jpg<br /><br />http://imstars.aufeminin.com/stars/fan/jared-padalecki/jared-padalecki-20080620-426652.jpg<br /><br />Here's a good 'cat eye' picture:<br />http://bestof.provocateuse.com/images/photos/jared_padalecki_98.jpg<br /><br />I think I may have to start watching this show…Megshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06512012258457354742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-24277503852226400742010-07-27T01:00:46.577-04:002010-07-27T01:00:46.577-04:00Carol--I agree with you about Dougal in the cave. ...Carol--I agree with you about Dougal in the cave. I can't really blame him for what he did. It was a little slimy, but I have a soft spot for Dougal (in fact, while I love love love Jamie, if it were ME in the book, Dougal would be more my type than Jamie), so I think I look past that slimy side a bit. We know he always had some sort of hots for Claire, so why not suggest she come live with him? She was about to lose her husband, and he had lost a wife and a mistress. Logical in many ways. But OF COURSE, it's a good thing Claire wasn't having it--'cause the crazy bitch (said with love) got Jamie back! Yay yay yay! (But still, as I've said in a past comment, I would have loved to see more of Dougal in the series. It was a shame he died at Culloden. He was hot.)Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08949382917313412653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-50483236784050601112010-07-26T20:55:34.532-04:002010-07-26T20:55:34.532-04:00Yeah, even though I'm only on my first read, I...Yeah, even though I'm only on my first read, I rememeber taking a whole day to read that part, knowing that I wouldn't be able to go to sleep or funtion if Jamie wasn't alive.<br />I also remember how creepy Jack was.<br />My mom and I were on the floor laughing and saying "EW!" when we listened to the samples for the musical and Jack says to Jamie:<br />"Say the words... I love you" <br />haha soooo creepy!<br />But I love me a good villain, it makes Jamie seem all the more lovely!<br />-MirandaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-27086873943401445502010-07-26T20:30:42.061-04:002010-07-26T20:30:42.061-04:00I think Dougal only loves one person... himself. ...I think Dougal only loves one person... himself. And imho I think the "hint of sadness" was in loosing the money that Geilie was bringing to the cause, not for the lose of Geilie herself. <br /><br />P.S. I've been reading these books for about 15 years (I've lost count of how many times I've re-read them).

SPOILER if you haven't...On a semi-relate note:<br /><br />SPOILER if you haven't read through chapter 32 of Breath of Snow and Ashes.<br /><br />So I just listened to the part where Jamie wakes up from the dream (two nights after rescuing Claire) where he sees Black Jack...and Black Jack call's Jamie "my heart's desire". I nearly got into a car accident.<br /><br />He's so creepy, and icky, and I'm surprised Jamie didn't have to stand at the window all night to get past it!Jo Mhttp://bookreadingbookworm.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
