Good morning all!

Okay, for the record -- I own a butter bell, also known as a French butter dish. :D And I love it, except that every time I try to use it, the butter gets moldy. (Yes, I'm aware you have to change the water; mine was getting moldy after a day and a half, might have something to do with the dish being a hand-me-down that is older than I am.) But thank you all for your butter-assist recommendations!

Also, I've been meaning to link to this earlier but am incompetent at life: julii_wolfe has done an audiobook version of My Home And Native Land, also known as That Fanfic I Wrote About Ronon Becoming A Canadian (No Lie!). You can find the mp3 download here or the podbook format download here. Thank you, julii_wolfe and conspirators! :D

I don't talk much about the Wii anymore, mainly because I've stopped falling off it, but I still do thirty minutes on it a night, mainly PT-reccommended stuff for my ankle and balance. Yesterday was my one year anniversary, and I wish I could have requested my asshat Wii Yoga instructor cut his ponytail as a gift to me, but no joy. Anyway, lately I'd been slacking off, skipping days or a week at a time, and I realised it was because of one thing: THE FUCKING HOOLA HOOPS. They make my ankles and knees and shoulders hurt! They're unpleasant and boring and painful!

So I have ruthlessly cut the hoola hoop from my workout regimen. And really I just wanted an excuse to write the previous sentence.

I stayed home and played hooky today, which means it's a little early but still time for...

Sam's Three Things About White Collar 2.02: ( Need To Know )

3a. IS THE SECRET HOTEL ROOM ART THING TRUE? If not can we MAKE it true? That is the BEST. THING. EVER. For real, everyone going to Comic Con this weekend, take notes.

Oh my god it is real: http://www.secretwalltattoos.com

All in all, that was satisfying.

It's time for Manipsterpiece Theatre!

Because my tv shows love me, the BBC posted this series of photos (spoilers for the last episode of Who S5). Because they love me.

So I linked Dove to the photos, and she made HOT ICONS out of them which you may find here. There are also two awesome White Collar icons as a bonus!

But she was sad, because she kept having to crop Rory out of the photos, since Rory tends to stand a little apart and not fit in the square. And I said, I HAVE THE POWER TO FIX THIS PROBLEM.

And then I did a little cut and paste job and the Doctor's hand ended up on Rory's ass. Sometimes these things just happen! ( Again, Spoilers for S5 final episode. )

I know this is stating the obvious, and that some of it is his enormous hair, but Matt Smith's head is GIGANTIC. It detracts nothing from his appearance, it's just really unnerving when working on a picture of him in photoshop.

Dear Google,

Your new imagesearch page format makes it more difficult to examine images because it smashes them all together and gives me no indication unless I mouse over each one what website I may be going to in order to preview the image.

It also won't load more than a single page of images, and that page is labeled "Page 27". So...thanks for that.

I cordially invite you to stop fucking fixing things that aren't fucking broken.

Yrs,

Sam Starbuck
