Medieval versus 80s - What's Your Poison? #grogz


Aww, dost though think yon squirrel is verily stuffed into yon suit of armor?

The Joust continues at the fair M.Pax's blog, so if ye be so inclined, pray thee go thither, my lords and ladies, and speakest these good words (cheering open until 8pm EST):

Lady Elson * Three * Divine  

Ugh. You have NO idea how long it took me to write that. Every time I try to talk Medieval, it comes out all piratey...or drunk Irish. So now I revert to 80s-speak:

I, like, totally appreciate all the awesome comments you're leaving at the Joust. You guys are cracking me up! Totally. Don't forget, your way cool comments at the Joust get you entered to win prizes. Cool beans, right? Today's awesome prizes are:

  • ebook copy of either NeverLove or The All Fall Down by Angela Brown

LOL. Where are you finding these pictures of rodents in armor??? They're hilarious. I'm off to the Joust - although I think I forgot to include your name in my comment yesterday. OOPS. I'm sorry! I'll get it in there today...

OMG I love that squirrel. And I'm a total 80s girls so I love these clips too.
Fare thee well, Lady Knight!

That squirrel looks so cute! It makes me want to dress up my parents' dogs like that.

The squirrel's a knightly laugh, but I'm loving the clip from "The Princess Bride." One of my favorite movies. :)

I wonder if anyone was bitten trying to stuff that squirrel in that armor? He has a good tailor. The Lancelot of the Tree World.

Before I start talking dirty, guess what happened---I hit 200 followers!   My 200th follower is Tony VanHelsing (who I'm going to assume is a descendent of you-know-who, and if anyone knows differently do not tell me).  To celebrate this milestone, how about I put Three Daves on sale for only 99 cents in Nook , eBook, ePub , and even Kindle until September 30th. ;) For today's feature post, visit Irish beauty Carol Oates .  This talented author and I discuss Adult versus Young Adult and where the line gets crossed.

Lexa & Julie's Dream Destinations Blog Hop & #Giveaway

Image
We're celebrating the release of Julie Flanders' The Ghosts of Aquinnah   and Lexa Cain's  Soul Cutter   with a Dreams Destinations blog hop. Aaand Lexa & Julie are hosting a great GIVEAWAY.  Visit either Lexa's blog or Julie's blog to enter and also to find the Linky list so you can travel to more dream destinations. It was unbelievably difficult for me to settle on just one place. I decided to make it somewhere I'd never been before...and then I decided to stop over thinking and just pick a place already...and I landed at Piazza San Marco in Venezia, or as we call it for some reason, Venice. (Does anyone know why we don't all call it Venezia?) I would stroll the square, sidestepping pigeons and saying buongiorno to people whose eyes met mine, not worrying about my sorry accent.

Top 10 Movie Countdown Blogfest

Yay, today's the day for another of Alex. J. Cavannaugh's famous blogfests. I'd like to thank him not only for hosting, but for keeping it simple & fun---coming up with this list and looking at posters of my most favorite movies turned out to be quite a cathartic exercise. I hope you found it to be the same (assuming you were in need of catharting). Thanks, Big Al. These are in the order of my affection for them: 1. Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl 2. Raiders of the Lost Ark 3. Star Wars: A New Hope 4. When Harry Met Sally 5. Return of the Jedi 6. The Empire Strikes Back 7. Toy Story 8. Mystic Pizza 9. Goodfellas 10. Jaws  I'm allowing myself two more because I think it was really good of me to count the original Star Wars Trilogy as three separate entries: 11. Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring 12. Pirates of the Caribbean: D
