( 12 due South icons )

la la la covers

Okay, so, people, what's the most different versions you have of any one song in your music collections?

My iTunes appears to contain four different versions of "Wonderwall" (um, two of which I cannot remember ever hearing), and three each of "Landslide" (Stevie Nicks, Dixie Chicks, Smashing Pumpkins), "100,000 Fireflies" (Magnetic Fields, Built to Spill, Superchunk), "Starman" (David Bowie, Dar Williams, Mates of State), "Real Wild Child" (Iggy Pop, Joan Jett, Josie & the Pussycats), "Such Great Heights" (Postal Service, Iron & Wine, Rilo Kiley), and "Rainbow Connection" (Muppets, Willie Nelson, Sarah McLachlan). This seems to confirm that my music collection is possibly somewhat random.

i like icons

Stealing another meme from mosca:

Take a look at my icons. Comment with the following:

1. One that makes you automatically think of me.
2. One that you think I should TOTALLY use more often.
3. One that you don't get/needs more explanation/you have no idea why I have it.

Comment using an icon of yours that you LOVE, and tell me why you picked THAT one too.

i don't get it

Fraser: No, it was a miscalculation, and I haven't made a miscalculation since....

Vecchio: Since when?

Fraser: Well, since the last time you shot me. I'm just grateful you had the presence of mind to shoot me again.

--Dialogue from "The Edge", transcript from here

Um, possibly I am alone in this, but does anybody else tend to find that exchange totally bizarre every time they watch this episode? Off the top of my head, I can't think of another instance of either of them making reference to Victoria's Secret during season two, for one thing. And for another -- man, the way Fraser says that line, it's like it could be anything at all. His last miscalculation could have been forgetting to bring an umbrella on a day when it was likely to rain, or accidentally putting his favorite sweater in the drier.

ds snippet: saponification

The really eagle-eyed among you might notice that this is actually not porn. Not at all. If you are brooklinegirl, I say: oops. Sorry about that! Um. Look, Tracey, turtles!

Thank you to lyra_sena for quick beta. This is for estrella30, because she is having a sucky, like, year.

due South, Fraser/Kowalski, post-CotW, PG-ish.
