bending_sickleI miss Loreena McKennitt, and I obviously missed out when they aired her music videos. Here's a few:
The Bonny Swans
The Mummers' Dance
Mystic's Dream, showing why Warcraft 3 is pretty.
Why Celtic music is cool.
Orignal video with some Loreena music which is shiny.
Animated Experience of the Lady of Shallot.
Snakes on a Plane icons make me squee with glee.
Oh, and horray for Blur's songs Bang.
You know, changing screens, I can now actually see my default icon with clarity and am surprised to see it actually has text. Unfortunately, it doesn't say "teh seks" or anything like that. Pft. "Poisoned." Why not something a little more, oh, I don't know, destructive, maybe? Maul may be poisoned, but he sure as hell beats the pants off of any of the other Sith's we've seen on-screen.* Compare him with, for example, Count Dooku (i.e. Saruman). Dooku a) has a pathetic name, both real and sithly ("Tyrannous"), b) is an old man and c) a seriously unimpressive death-scene.** Despite getting more on-screen time, Dooku didn't use it as well. Less "oozing evil and martial arts abilities" and more "old man speechifying".
Alright, I'll stop now.
* Did you see SW: TPM?
** I blame Maul's death on a whammy. He just stood there and got sliced.
