Feelgood Friday #6

Hello to Feelgood Friday, our visual joke only, no blabbing rubbish from me, day! (Well, you can all only live in hope!......one day it might actually happen, and the five of you will be left feeling bereft and abandoned!)

I began this week with the shock announcement that the Klingons are planning to invade Scotland (oh yeah, and the rest of planet Earth, too), in my post The Klingons are Coming, at the end of which, I had placed a photo of Patrick Stewart (or J.L., as he likes me to refer to him) wearing a kilt. I got a comment from a new follower about the kilt pic., so I decided to enlighten him as to the "babe magnet" potential of the kilt in my post How to Wear a Kilt. During my research for which, I made the amazing discovery that kilts are possibly the one thing that will bring Earthlings and alien beings together to live in peace and harmony - Kilts: Could They Save the Known Universe?, a post that had a nice symmetry about it and kinda brought the whole week together, I thought.

I didn't learn any new computer tricks (a.k.a. basics that I actually need to know in order to do stuff). Instead, I spent my time having ridiculously funny chats with fellow bloggers, making new friends, and almost starting a fisticuffs fight! Excellent week for me then - job done (except the learning stuff part)!

I did notice that I seemed to have several new fans reading from Italy. Italy??? But I haven't even started fighting with the Italians (they'd surrender too quickly - ouch! did I write that out loud? That's just the type of careless comment that starts a fight........!). Some research revealed that they were coming from a Gerard Butler mad-fan site. One of them had clocked my pic of him in the How to Wear a Kilt post. He was the one in the pink jumper. The one where I couldn't decide whether or not he looked like a pansy-boy (no offence to any pink readers, it's a term of endearment, really!). His mad-fans seem to have been taken aback by the fact that I was "confused" by his choice of jumper colour (fine in Italy, still a bit suspect in Scotland), and his holding the sword in what can only be described as a phallic manner, and they actually slagged me off in their chat forum!!! How very dare they?

It got me quite a few page hits though. Which is why I'm now going to place another photo of him............

(pic at link, with the caption)....
Gerard Butler fights like a girl.

.........and one of another Scottish actor, Dougray Scott, who I think is much better looking than Gerard Butler, AND a more talented actor...............nyah nyah nyah! (may as well see if there are any Dougray Scott mad-fan sites who find this!)

(pic at link, with caption)....
Dougray Scott - far more handsome and talented than Gerard Butler.

And, just in case that's not enough to draw them out, I'm going to put my new-found hyper-link-tag-thingy skill to use, and I'm gonna tag this post "Gerard Butler"............that should [polite cough] irritate them!

(DK's admin note...it worked! )

Apologies for so much talk on Feelgood Friday visual joke only day, but then I'm sure you, dear readers, understand that I couldn't resist the temptation!

In case the blogger is noticing hits to her blog and reading here...I like you. You're cheeky.

i loved that blog. made me laugh!

So if I start writing about Gez on my blog, people will start hittin' it too?

Nah, I'll skip.

But the pink and brown ensemble is one of my favs. I get, though, outside of 'fashion', Gez would get beat up.

I love "Gez" in his pink and brown kilted ensemble too...

Funny how we've never seen him wear it since. Only that Colorado t-shirt...

i always had the impression that that ensemble was provided for him at the show. when you see pics of him arriving and leaving...he's in a totally different outfit.

Hey Guys! Hello! 'Tis the Life In A Scots Sitting Room female (coming into my Prime, thankyouverymuch!) blogger here! It took me a coupla days to get my ass in gear to register (sorry), so that I could comment on your comments, on my comments!

DonnaKat - Yup! You got me in one! Glad you like me - I aim to please (when not insulting, provoking, or picking mock fights!)

I'm here to offer you the inside scoop on why that photo, and why my comments??? Are you intrigued??? Let me know (not actually that riveting, but sounds better than saying "wanna hear why I did that?").

I do think Gerard's a hunk too, but only second to Dougray Scott. But I can see, when it's between 2 gorgeous Scots specimens such as these gentlemen, it's down to personal preference (yes, please!!!).

Was delighted you left a message on my blog - my regular readers know my teasing style, and really enjoyed your comeback comments in like humor, so thanks, and thanks for being great sports!

Is this a Scottish/British/USA/mixed site? (don't say "yes"!).

Air-kisses....

We have a Vegemite-lover from Down Under, so, no.

BND, love your humor.

Welcome, BND! We're cheeky too, so I think you'll fit in here.
