Yesterday was a no good, terrible, horrible day (partly) but today is decidedly better and brighter. Our plans to hit the aquarium via train and walking of four blocks has been curtailed by the OMG heat, so it's arts and crafts day, meaning I can play here while they cut and paste and add glittah (Little Shop of Horrors, anyone?) First links!
Now, POLL!! This is to make me laugh (unless you have the answers, in which case, I will be so very very happy.)
Okay, so this morning was definitely an Old SKool Hip Hop kind of morning. Run DMC, Ladies Love Cool James, etc. And I realize that for the most part on my flist, I am very, very alone with my love for hip hop. This is mostly what I think of as the golden age: 1984 -1992. Ya Bobby Browns. Ya Fresh Prince era. Heh. All write in, because that will generate the funniest answers. (Dave? I'm expecting you to ace this, my Hebrew brothah.)
(And if anyone wants any of these songs, I have them all in mp3 format.)
[eta]As expected, 
dlgood is in the lead with the most correct answers. annabelle528 takes the lead! WOOT!
- This is possibly the most disturbing and HILARIOUS video I've come across. (It's disturbing because I have serious bug fear.) But funny. It's FUNNY!! And there are bugs. Just watch the damn thing. IT IS WORKSAFE.
- This is possibly the funniest Seussianesque slashy poetry ever written about a pirate and Commodore (ex, weren't you paying attention?) Norrington ever. SO. CLEVER. And naughty. (Thanks to cherusha for pointing the way.)
- THIS is my new blog for gardening. I hope to make it a comprehensive site for learning about how to, etc. PLEASE: do not link back to THIS LJ. I don't need gardening people coming across (heh) my naughty posts, fics, etc. Call me EmGee (oh, I am CLEHVAH. M G, or master gardener.) I've made an LJ for it as well, and hopefully will create an RSS feed to update the LJ, so you'll get a notice if you friend it. POINT OF INTEREST: every weekend will be a Q&A session. Comment with questions, concerns, etc., and I will answer to the best of my abilities - or send you to someone who can help.

(thanks.) And also: thanks for your list of recs this morning! The current 'splosion in our fandom has left me a bit nervous about clicking on just anything. :D
It is my duty to spread the Norrington/Sparrington love, yes.
*obsesses and is obsessed omg*
Seriously, yo. It's not like Gillette was the only person to get booted. Anamaria, anyone?
Do the Humpty Hump come on and do the Humpty Hump
Do the Humpty Hump just watch me do the Humpty Hump
Do ya know what I'm doin doin the Humpty Hump
Do the Humpty Hump do the Humpty Hump
New Edition used to OWN MY SOUL. I'm not ashamed to admit that. Boyz2Men, ABC, BBD. (Never trust a big butt that smiles!)
(Oh, man, you should play some filthy, dirty rap music when he gets home to watch his eye twitch! Heh.)
(I'm going to upload all of these songs later, btw. Wheee!)
(HA YAY. Dude, these all take me back to my fourth grade talent show. A bunch of the boys from our small-town version of The Projects break-danced [broke-danced?] to The Humpty Dance.)
Actual moments in my youth:
* 7th grade history class (Texas) rapped to "Rapping Duke", but changed it to the tale of The Alamo for the end of the year project. Actually sewed coordinating jackets for my "back up dancers."
* 8th grade speech tournament, rapped "Roxanne, Roxanne" for a poetry reading competition. Soundly lost.
* 9th grade: learn how to pop/lock, Roger Rabbit, etc. Think I look AWESOME on the dance floor. Not sure if I do, but I THINK IT.
* 11th grade in the hallway. One of the freaks (heavy metal dudes) whispered that he heard I was into rap, and could I sneak him some music without telling any one. hahahaha!
* current: this series of quizes.
Yeah, fourth grade. *grins*

Also, because it should be said often: DUMBLEDORE FUCKS NO AMERICANS.
Er. Ew. I remember those girls. More, I remember the mothers acting as coaches.
THAT'S RIGHT.
Links to music (and answers) up later, if you're interested! (I love that one respondant corrected the grammar on one of the rap lyrics. Heee! That's like offering a free ethics/morality seminar to SS commanders, or something less offensive, SHEESH, LAURA.)
Although he was horribly, horribly wrong, Laura.
Just you wait. I'll make a poll of EASY LISTENING hits and then you'll see. YOU'LL ALL SEE.
*applies Benadryl in order to pull up socks* (And heh to using "2")
