This is a brilliant story. I've heard a lot of cool things about Alice Cooper over the years. A coworker's nephew had a band that opened for Alice Cooper in some times ago and had a lot of good things to say about him. Though I don't like his music much, I really do consider myself to be a fan of his.

My aunt who passed away last year would have loved this story. She practically worshiped Elvis.

I notice that Phill Jupitus has lost weight. As a very fat bird, I hate it when someone utters the phrases "you look good" and "you've lost weight" within an hour of each other, because it always makes me wonder how horrible I looked before. From the first time I saw him on QI six years ago, I've thought Phill was a fucking doll, but now I have to take back the sentiment I just expressed about "you look good" and "you lost weight," because as cute as I've always thought he was, I think he's a smidgen cuter now. (Just a little.) I'm liking the grey hair and stubble, too.

Holy cow! LJ seems to be working!

*waves to the flist* I missed you guys!

After all the excited posts I've seen about last night's broadcast of Frankenstein into cinemas everywhere, I took the plunge and bought tickets for two performances! The first day will have Benedict as the Creature and JLM as Victor, and then the next week the roles are swapped. I'll ask Phil tonight if he's interested as soon as I check to make sure I'm not working The Crucible on Sunday the 3rd; if I am, I'm out of luck for that day, but from what I've heard, the general consensus is that it works a tiny bit better with JLM as the Creature and Benedict as Victor, so if I was going to see one, the 10th would be the one I'd choose. It'd be worth the $44 I paid for both tickets to just see that one.

I'm excited! *crosses fingers that I won't have to work the 3rd*

I found a Black Books/Sherlock crossover fic a week or three ago and absolutely loved it, so I put Black Books at the top of my Netflix queue because I like Bill Bailey. It arrived today, so I pulled out my Sherlock DVD and put in a Black Books DVD from Netflix. Weird but really funny, and then I nearly fell over halfway through the first episode when the delicious young doctor treating Manny had a familiar voice. I scrambled over the coffee table (much less elegantly than Sherlock does when he just steps over it) so I could see (still haven't replaced my glasses, and I'm getting more myopic by the minute), and look who it was!!! ( Baby Doctor John Watson! SQUEEE!!! )

Leonard Nimoy is going to talk about his career at the Carpenter Center in Long Beach on Saturday. I am almost sick with disappointment because the church play we've worked months on is performing that night, and I'm needed backstage, so I can't go. But what I can't figure out is: Why on earth did this not sell out months ago?! I got an e-mail advertising tickets for sale a few minutes ago, and I am stunned that there are any available.

I've spent the last month loathing our producer with the fire of a thousand suns because she's the one who scheduled the play for this weekend.

Hugh Laurie is in the running to be named Hello Magazine's Most Attractive Man of the Year. I realize that some of you, when you get there, may decide to vote for Hugh Jackman instead (I certainly wouldn't blame you), but please go here and vote anyway!

I've decided that the philtrum is the sexiest part of the human face. ( Picspam that you've all seen before: )
