Veth's Journal

You know, I actually didn't come into 1776 with any slash expectations, but Jefferson/Adams is really, really canon. Just... "But, Mr. Adams". That whole scene. "But I burn, Mr. A!" "So do I, Mr. J!" And when Jefferson's leaning over Adams on the stairs, their faces get so close. That's got to be my second favorite they're-totally-making-out-even-though-their-mouths-don't-actually-touch scene, ever. (The first, of course, being David Bowie and Mick Jagger in Dancing in the Street (about 1:18-1:20). Normally I'm a Bowie/Mercury shipper, but to borrow a phrase from Mr. Adams, good GOD.) Unfortunately, the Jefferson/Adams doesn't go much of anywhere after that song, but trust me, that's plenty.

1776 is an excellent movie, by the way. And play, I assume, since the movie seems very faithful (heck, it even kept all of the songs). I can't remember ever having such a strong urge to watch a movie again. Unfortunately, I returned it to the library. But still. Great acting, great music, great historical accuracy. I recommend it highly.

Has anyone ever thought of "Flannell" as a portmanteau for Flansburgh and Linnell? Not necessarily in a shippy way (although I do ship them wth D:) - I just thought it was somewhat clever. Of course, they already do have several serviceable collective names, like, say, "They Might Be Giants". :\

...Dang it, now I want to read some TMBG fic. Does anyone even write that stuff? D:

You'd never be able to tell I only have eight RHCP songs in there. (Does "RHCP" remind anyone of "RCMP"?)

Also, most of you internet-savvy folks probably already know the song "Ievan Polkka" from the Leekspin video, but if you don't, go look it up. (This video has the full song with subtitles.) This is probably my new favorite Finnish song. Just makes you wanna dance. ^_^

(I like that title. It's probably been done before, but I still like it.)

Well, of course we all know that it would be awesome if 'Lijah were gay. But is he or not? A girl at school said that he had come out, but I couldn't find any proof of it. I did find one website claiming that he was "very very gay", but it seemed to be mostly wishful thinking, although it did have a very nice Domlijah pic. So, does anyone have any proof of Elijah's gayness, or lack of it?
