(That's me saying 'Hello' when I feel like being an idiot)

Anywho...

Well, first I've got to say that I LOVE this:

Collier's Horse has no name 

And THIS!

Collier @ Co. Covering the Rollin' Stone 

Wow. I want a guitar like that... :-D

In other news...

Haaarrrrrryyyyy Potter Potter Potter Potter Potter!

There is a trailer out. It is wonderful. I can't wait for the movie. Shall have no nails by July :-). Then again shall probably have no nails by July because of tertiary studies anyway.

And, uh, yeah, that's about it for now.

Yep...

1: Yes, obviously, I'm not in the mountains anymore. Didn't get to go kayaking, did manage to get sunburn though! :-P

Carrying on:

There are Collier shirts. For sale. Signed by John. Limited, as there are only 250 made.

http://www.collierandcomovie.com/Shirts.htm

I want OOOOONNNNNEEEEE!

Oh, the disappointment.

BTW: There is a lovely picture of John while he's signing the shirts. (heheh)

I'm off into the mountains, the wonderful mountains with lakes! (Yes, I have recently seen The Wizard of Oz again)

Maybe I'll go kayaking, WOO, KAYAKING!

Dunno, might just go on a little tiki-river-rafting.

Who knows?

Anyway, (though slightly redundant as I've not been online alot lately anyway, my niece and nephew are exhaustive) I shant be online for a couple of weeks.

TTFN!

Stole from ariadne_au.

1. Elaborate on your default icon.
Its a picture I made, a mix of my two favourite fandomy-thingys. Harry Potter and The Dukes of Hazzard. It's actually just part of the picture I made, which was the whole cover of Chamber of Secrets, but with the changes you see here (General replacing the Ford Anglia, and the addition of Bo and Luke). Also changed "Chamber of Secrets" text to "Dukes of Hazzard".

2. What's your current relationship status?
single

3. Ever have a near-death experience?
Umm... no.

4. Name an obvious quality you have.
Most obvious would be that I'm shy, I suppose. But once I warm up apparently I'm very funny. I wouldn't know, I just say stuff, and people often laugh.

5. What's the name of the song that's stuck in your head right now?
Better Class of Losers - John Schneider, Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings

6. Any celeb you would marry?
John Schneider, definately. Age is only a number!

7. Who will cut and paste this first?
Uhhhhmm.... yes.

8. Name someone with the same birthday as you.
My sister! We're not twins, I was born on her 7th birtday.

9. Do you have a crush on someone?
Heh, yes. John Schneider for one.

10. Have you ever vandalized someone's private property?
I think I drew on someone elses pencil case... that count?

11. Have you ever been in a fight?
Yes, arguments and hitting. But they deserved it for taking my best friends crutches away when she needed them.

12. Have you ever sung in front of a large audience?
Yes! I LOVED it.

13. What's the first thing you notice about the OPPOSITE sex?
It depends. For example, if there is a huge wart/bruise/cut or something in the middle of their forehead, who's not going to notice that first? In other cases, probably the mouth (smile), or eyes... or maybe just the face in general...

14. What do you usually order from Starbucks?
Nope. We have a slight lack of Coffee Houses out here (just east of the Middle of Nowhere).

15. Have you ever hurt yourself on purpose?
No. Many times unintentionally, but not on purpose.

16. Say something totally random about yourself.
I'm random! I often say really weird stuff and really weird times. **FIRECRACKERS!** (that's the first thing that I thought when I first saw the question).

17. Has anyone ever said you looked like a celebrity?
Oh, yeah, just like Hermione Granger, before Emma Watson was cast.

18. Do you wear a watch? What kind?
No. My cell phone is my watch.

19. Do you have anything pierced?
My ears. I had to get them re-done all the time because they'd get infected and grow over. Then we figured out that my ears were allergic to gold. heheh.

20. Do you have any tattoos?
Nah, but I want a Dukes one. And a lightning bolt (not on my forehead!).

21. Do you like pain?
Uh. No. Not at all. Ugh.

22. Do you like to shop?
Shopping is fuuuuuuuuuun... When you have the money.

23. What was the last thing you paid for with cash?
I believe it was a bottle of Mizone Lime.

24. What was the last thing you paid for with a credit card?
Nope. Credit Card-less. Never had one.

25. Who was the last person you spoke to on the phone?
My mum, who called from work to find out what my brother and dad were doing with the car.

26. What is on your desktop background?
Take my Icon. Add on the rest of the cover from HP (as described in #1). Add an orange panel with large stars and lightning bolts on the side for the Desktop Items to sit on and viola!

27. What is the background on your cell phone?
Currently it's coloured swirls. It's not a PXT phone, just colour screen.

28. Do you like redheads?
I wish I had red hair!

29. Do you know any twins?
Yes, identical. Actually, I know at least 2 sets of identical twins.

30. Do you have any weird relatives?
Who doesn't? Come on, own up!

31. What was the last movie you watched?
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire at the cinema. Serenity on DVD.

32. What was the last book you read?
Between Males - Fiona Walker

1. Are you named after anyone?
Haha! The moon! Marama means "Moon" or "Bright light". There was a full moon when my parents were driving for over an hour in the early morning to the hospital so I could be born. Poor Mum.

2. Do you have your children's names picked out already? If so, is there any significance?
Yeah. I like Aidan. There was a reason, I just don't remember.

3. If you were born a member of the opposite sex what would your name have been?
I... don't know. My parents were considering calling me Jacqui before the whole moon thing.

4. If you could re-name yourself what name would you pick and why?
Hmmm. I dunno. I used to want to change my name, but I'm happy with the relative uniquety of it now. Maybe I'd change my name to the Delta sign, for the fun of it.

5. Are there any mispronunciations/typos that people do with your name constantly?
All the time. People often say the first "Ma" of my name wrong. They say it with a harsh "a" sound. Which I don't understand, because the same people don't have any problem pronouncing the word car, "car" not "care".

6. Any nicknames you are fond of?
I don't really know, in the family I'm often called Bubbles or Brat (my Dad is trying to train himself out of that one). Other people call me Maz, which is a little annoying cause they reckon they're taking it from the first part of my name with the harsh "a", but I've gotten use to it.

Got my boo-ook! Got my booo-oook!

The Upside of having the flu today: I can lie in bed a read the 1982 (I think it's 1982 anyway, it's the only date I could find) Dukes of Hazzard Annual which I got from Trademe and arrived today.

2 large, close, and pretty dern clear colour Photos of shirtless John in it... mmm :-)

Yes! There is now  an online site for Johns Movie, Collier and Co.!

http://www.collierandcomovie.com/Welcome.html

Although it's not all up yet (trailer still to come, can't wait for that), It's good for a looky, and, I mean, John Schneider.
There's photo's and info and all sorts.

Going cross eyed (that could either be the mad headache from the 'flu I have, or possibly elation :-P).

Anyone want to know how REALLY WEIRD my cat is? Well you're going to find out (there's a photo of him in earlier posts, if you want - he's the brown one).

Sooooo....

I'm not sure if the rest of the world has Cheezels, so I'll give a sort of description: They're these puffy sort of rings, I think that they're corn, ... does the rest of the world have twisties? Burger Rings? If you have those, they're the same stuff, and they're supposedly cheese flavoured (I think that they taste like crap, but thats not the point). Pictures:


Cheezels in a Bag


Cheezels adorning the fingers of a young child: Must-have fashion accesory.

Anyway: it's not exactly the sort of thing that you'd expect a cat to eat.

Yes: My cat ate a Cheezle.

I'd spilt a couple on the floor and he was sniffing around them. I thought "if he wants to try it he can try it", so I put one where he  could have it, and only expected him to lick the flavouring off, at most.

But NOoooo, he had to eat the whole thing.

My cat is a nutter.

If its in Bold, I have seen 3 or more episodes. Italics I have seen basically every episode. Got from ariadne_au Bear in mind that I only had poor mans TV for the longest time, and that at times you have to watch what is on, no matter how cruddy it is. 

Note: I cheated and added four, instead of the limit of 3... 'm I bad...

I shall not be online for a few days. Going into the mountains.

Time to vote anew for John on Moosak.com, guys! Lets try to get him a bit closer to the top this time!

Ciao for now!

I used to know this off by heart, but I was trying to remember it and couldn't... I present: the fruits of Google Searching!

This is a little story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody. 

There was an important job that Everybody was supposed to do.  Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it.
Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it. 
Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody's job. 
Everybody thought that Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn't do it. 
It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done

Got this from Chromie on MySpace. Quite interesting. Pretty close too. Well, for me, you can judge your own...

( Find your month and that is you... )

Take the quiz:
What kind of muscle car are you?

1969 Dodge Charger R/T
You are a 1969 Dodge Charger R/T! You love your car.....it hauls ass, but you really don't like the new charger at all...at least you know you can whoop on it! You love burning rubber....but hate buying more and more tires...

You know... snow is a MARVELOUS thing.

It's Beautiful, it's fun, and it can cut off your internet for almost three days.

Actually... I have it easy in comparison to those further south, who haven't had any power since Monday, at least I have a light to read by!

So that's why I haven't been voting for John lately, because I haven't been able to! Ack! :-(

Strange occurence... what with the snow and the following freeze... the car froze shut... there was a block of ice over it, basically!

But the snow is melting now, despite it already have been a few days (it usually melts by the next day here).

And now... I have decided to adopt the title of "Rabid John Schneider Fan" and it's mine mine MINE! MINE I say! :-) (Hey, it was me who added him to moosak!)

Cheers ya'll
Marama

- 5 Degree's. It's -5 Degrees, it's as cold as, if not colder, than up in the mountains.
I am freezing and I think that my toes are about to drop off.

Oh. My. GOD!

John Schneider has gone up to rank 33 at Moosak already!

Yayjohn!

I just got in contact with TVNZ.
I asked them if I could get a copy of the episode of Close Up with John Schneider.

They want $75 for it.

Pfffft. Whatever. 

I can't afford it, and even if I could, I'm not entirely sure I would want to pay seventy five freaking dollars for five minutes of film. Even if it IS John Schneider. And that really hurts to say.

I stole this from twirlynoodle.
