I would probably have several. At least I would have both a TV and a radio channel.
The TV channel's name would be something very witty and would have to do with some good movie, or many - it could be in four or five parts and all the parts would come from a different movie. The first letters could form a word on their own and that is what the channel would be called. The TV would focus on classic movies and TV series. People could request stuff, and we would actually listen to them too.

The radio channel's name is a trickier one. It would probably have the frequency incorporated into it, so that people immediately remembered the frequency when they remember the name.
The radio channel would also play classic rock music from the fifties to the eighties. And people could call and request songs all day long, well, almost all day, here too.

I would be very user-friendly, eh?

TV & Movies & Books:
Did I mention it when I had watched the couple first episodes of the 80s TV adaptation of Brideshead Revisited? 'Cause I did. Then, for some reason, I didn't watch any more. It was in the summer ( a distant memory by now, that is) and I probably got interested in something else. I can't even remember if it was before or after Doctor Who.
I'm going to finish watching it, mind you, and I'm positively going to read the book too. One day.

Then, once again, a discreet yet well thought-of, if you know everything I do, change of subject: I think Matthew Goode has an incredibly pretty voice.


... I'm off.

Journal:
Yesterday I had this beautiful amazing post but for some reason the journal didn't want to show it. If it doesn't work now either I'm gonna be angry.

Movies:
So, yesterday I watched The Birds. It was good, but the end was weird. I mean, they just drove away. The End. Roll end titles. But yeah, just like stuff like Psycho, it makes you fookin' scared of stuff. Birds. Man. There just happened to be an article in Tiede that told why birds live in, uh, herds? No? Flocks? What's the word?
And tomorrow's Vertigo's turn.

( meanwhile on last.fm, a.k.a. 'Music:' )

Internetz:
Macros. I haz them. Loads, really. And you will be suffering of them for ages to come.
Also, as I yesterday renamed some of the contents of my 'macros' folder, I found this somewhat unexplainable picture:
It's from that stick-man mystery episode, I remember that one. I also remember the story. It was quite good. Cipher texts are always interesting.

Personal life:
I got a haircut this morning. I gave the barber two photos of David Tennant and I ended up looking more like John Barrowman. And there's nothing wrong with that. My hair's shorter that that though. AS OF RIGHT NOW.
You will not get a picture of me, as I already gave you two amazingly good-looking men. Also, I don't have a working camera, and the built-in webcam of this computer is not that good.

On a side note: they're thinking that time doesn't exist. Very possible.
I myself believe that now is always and that everything happens at all times. Sound weird? Don't worry. Just, try to imagine something, anything four-dimensional. Guaranteed 'Head goes asplodey'-effect.


Ooh. Solar eclipses! I love them. I don't believe I've ever witnessed a total one, but I would dearly love to! I think they're both somehow mystical yet perfectly scientific at the same time, and that's just something, you know, cool.

End:
Got to go now. Off to watch (The?) Clifters!

Yeah. And I'd love to have me put to some deep-freeze and then come back when everything has been figured out. 'Cause for me, right now, the purpose of life is finding the purpose of life, and the universe and everything else there as a sidedish too. So yeah, I have a need to believe. Kinda. Hard to explain.

Personal life:

I have two days of work left, then comes the weekend of pre-DOOM and then school starts.

THIS.


In other news...

Journal:

The layout's changing again. I'm working on it, but it's gonna be a bit darker. I will have to dive ino the wonderful world of CSS to get what I want.

Music:

Fak. Alice Cooper's coming to Finland (yay!) to Tampere (nay) at Christmas (oy?).
I want to be there. Alice Cooper's one of the only alive-and-well musicians that I really adore. And fook, this might be my last chance at something like this. Also; Alice Cooper is like the embodiment of cool and grotesque and camp and gothic and AWESOME all in one.

TV:


Couldn't find a video (not that I expected to, really).
It's the one in which the grumpy man comes home and the wife knows everything he's thinking (she says them in her head and then the man announces them aloud) and when he gets some food he changes (literally, physically changes) and is really a lot nicer and goes all "What do you think if we went to opera tonight?" It's atria's commercial. Good food-better mood, eh?

My favourite has always been the Prisoner of Azkaban. It introduced some of my all time favourite characters (Sirius Black, Lupin) and the Dementors, the creepiest things ever.

As a fan of science fiction, the whole time travelling thing has always been close to my heart. I also enjoyed the fact that lord Voldemort does not make an appearance in the book.

It's really the last book in which the characters are relaxed and somewhat happy. The trips to Hogsmeade and all.

Heh. The first ones I ever actually listened to, Ghosts and Man in the Mirror [yeah, not the most usual 'first ones'] along with Smooth Criminal and Beat it. But they're classics, all of them, even more now that the King is dead.

Writer's Block:

1.What fictional character do you most identify with?

Let's start listin'!

The first and perhaps most accurate one might me:
Gandalf - old, wise, a leader, wise, uh... uber-cool pop culture icon?

I find Anakin's 'Ariesness' very close to that of mine - self-conscious, stubborn, loyal, drawn to the dark side - and the rest is history.
Same kind of decisiveness and boldness can be found in, none other than our lovely Capt. James. T. Kirk.
Also; Scarlett O'Hara.

That Basil guy in The Picture of Dorian Gray. The was artsy, and totally gay, and very 'beautiful things are to be kept secret, so that I can enjoy them just by myself'. Also, he got killed.

Dana Scully. Intelligent, scientific, woman?
Funny thing is, I also identify very much with Mulder. They're not that different, in the end, are they?

Ohh, hey! Scar from Lion King! 'I'm surrounded by idiots!' Only I can't bother to make those idiots follow me. And I wouldn't like to be a king.

Floyd Pinkerton. 'Pink', that is. 'Pink isn't well, he stayed back at the hotel'. When life gets too difficult. People don't understand. And in the end you turn out to be the one thing you tried to fight - much like young Skywalker.

The compulsory Doctor Who bit - The cool-music-minded insane-since-childhood Time Lord the Master, I identify with him. He was intelligent, too.

Ellen Ripley - alongside with Scully, Ripley is the only female character I've ever really identified with. She's strong-willed, intelligent, and usually is made the boss against her own wishes. You also forget that she's a woman.

While I'm not the greatest Batman fan in the world, Dr. Jonathan Crane, aka the Scarecrow, who works at the asylum, and should more or less be an inmate, was, during 'Batman Begins' my favourite character. The intelligence. The eyeglasses.

Colonel 'This sketch is getting too silly' from the Flying Circus. I get that terrible urge to tell people they're talking stupid nonsense every now and then (nonsensical stuff isn't necessarily bad, only when it's stupid)

Snufkin, Moomins.'Nuff said, really. A loner, who occasionally enjoys people's company, eats fish, is philosophical, intelligent, wise, a restless soul.
While not being my favourite character, Hodgkinson (or however it was written) from the Moomin series by Tove Jansson has that inventor-drive on his side. He's not that adventurous, either. More of a thinker.

There was a fox in a book that my parents used to read to me - The Restless Fox, born in April, when the moon was at it's fullest. He received restless footprints as a gift from lady Moon, and ever since it has had to move from one place to another, and on those nights when the stars are close to earth, it can do nothing but to howl at the Moon.
That fox is me. For real. (In the end, the fox must be locked in a cage and kept under the boiling sun for a couple of days, so he can be set free. Hopefully my life goes easier on me.)

Would it be too much to say HAL-9000 here in the end?


*footnote: Question to readers: Which would be the defining word here?Hint, begins with 'I'

And you run and you run to catch up with the Sun, but it's sinking
And racing around to come up behind you again
The Sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older,
shorter of breath and one day closer to death

Time by Pink Floyd, lyrics Roger Waters

This is the bit I usually sayy if I'm asked my favourite piece of lyric.

1. LotR by J.R.R. Tolkien
2. The Complete Works of E. A. Poe
3. Vaarallinen Juhannus by Tove Jansson (What's this in English? Ah. 'Moominsummer Madness')
4. Encyclopaedia Britannica
5. The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde

Oh man. I'm an idealist - The glass is half full if you just poured the water/whatever it contains, and have done nothing else to it yet, but if you pour the glass full and drink/ empty some of it, it's half empty. Easy?
