A Rhyme That Prompted A Post That Got Carried Away

So I will start this post by saying that, every time I hear the song Keep Awake by 100 Monkeys & I hear them rhyming the words Kitchen & Itchin', it reminds me of the first time I heard those two words rhymed together in a song. The song is Some Might Say by the truly great Oasis. So, in another totally self-indulgent moment, I'm going to post that anthem of a song here. When I searched for it on YouTube, I found the live version from a live CD that I have of theirs. So, natch, I was like "Maine Road, Manchester, 1996 - the greatest concert EVER by ANYONE!" Did I mention that I ADORE Oasis? I even still have the Maine Road concert on video. Oasis' music & Noel Gallagher's lyrics speak to my soul. Always have, always will. Then I thought, how can I only post Some Might Say? What about The Masterplan? Or Round Are Way? So, now I present the complete fuckawesomeness that is Oasis at the height of their career... Mancunian swagger in all it's glory!












Wait, what's this blog about again? Oh right, Jackson Rathbone...


There... I did my bit... ;)

That Eyebrow Has A Life Of It's Own

Now you all know that I loves me some Jackson, right? I watched this video & loved it! The smile, the dimples, the eyes, the voice, that accent, the 'burns (OK, maybe not those so much) - I drooled over it all. Then gradually I found myself becoming slightly distracted. It seems I have developed a fascination with his left eyebrow. Watch the video again & keep an eye on the rogue eyebrow. I don't think I've ever seen such an expressive, mobile eyebrow before (note I say "eyebrow" in the singular, because only the one moves). It seems as if it wants to do it's own interview. I think that eyebrow could hold a whole conversation by itself. I wonder if it practices in the mirror? Perhaps we should name it. Any ideas? LOL! OK, enough about the eyebrow - I would hate to hurt it's feelings. It's a lovely eyebrow! Watch at 0:31 in the video when Jackson says, "There's always a few hours in the night." - He can be grateful that it wasn't me doing that interview, because I totes would have jumped on him! SO effing hawt!  *I.AM.DIED*


Only 19 seconds long & AGAIN the eyebrow tries to steal the show. Then something happens (I won't spoil it for you) & I got such a fright, I nearly fell out of my chair. Needless to say, I won't be leaning forward while watching the screen again. LOL!


Mouth Porn alert at 0:29... *thud*


Nice close-ups on this one. Me thinks the eyebrow wasn't pleased here, since most of it's antics got cut off. :(

Fictionista Workshop



I received an e-mail from Fictionista Workshop & I just had to share it with all of you. I think what they are doing is WONDERFUL & SO needed. Please have a read through what they have to say & contact them if you want to feature them on your blogs, too. Their website is http://www.fictionistaworkshop.com/ . Right now, they only have their introductory post up, but when they launch, they will be issuing a call for applicants that are writers, editors and contributors to apply for participation in the workshop experience.

Greetings,

I am contacting you on behalf of Fictionista Workshop, a burgeoning writers workshop for creative original fiction. A thriving, supportive community of writers, editors, and readers.

Women who enjoy the online writing and reading communities are eager for creative opportunities in which they can interact with others, for a variety of reasons. Writing can be a lonely process, whether done in private or with others; having a ready pool of other writers, editors, and readers available for immediate discussion and feedback when needed can be extraordinarily helpful.

We believe there is a true need for education, development, and resources that transcend the unfortunate and inaccurate stigma often given to the fanfiction genre and enable writers to move into the writing process with confidence based on their education and experience.

Fictionista Workshop desires to affiliate with community leaders and organizations that house creative fanfiction from all aspects of the Twilight community. We have many members that enjoy your community and were referred to you by one of your blog followers. As part of our fiction production and love for writing, this includes our love for Jasper fanfiction! We look forward to many authors from the fanfiction side of our workshop to focus on Jasper Whitlock Hale and are requesting your affiliation. Thank you kindly for your consideration. If there are any questions or comments, please feel free to contact us. Either way, thank you for operating an outstanding quality community for Twilight fanfiction community writers and readers.

Sincerely,

Fictionista Workshop Administrators

Please go support them - they are doing fantastic work! Thanks!

His Name Is Jackson Rathbone But You Can Call Him Sex-On-Legs

Well, as we all know by now, last night was the New Moon Premiere in LA. And did our boy look FINE or what?! In fact, the very first thing I thought when I saw this picture was "Hello, Sex-On-Legs!" Holy hell! *thud*

Then there were the rest of the pics, some of which actually made me SQUEE out loud! It's not my fault, it's that damn smile! It's just so... ungh! It melts me everytime! *sigh*




And in case anyone was wondering, I still think he's hot, even with those growths on the sides of his head! I've heard of sideburns, but hell's teeth, that's odd! It's like lamb-chops, but not.  =P  He's a quirky one, our boy Jackson. It's part of his charm & I love him for it! ;)




















And here's some with Ashley Greene & Kellan Lutz


As always, click to enlarge. All pics found on Jackson Rathbone Online .
