Subject:EVEN MORE icon love
Time:10:45 am
I also did this yesterday, but here's more why not. This time via [info]quesrah:


Talked about this one yesterday, it's Hum's You'd Prefer an Astronaut. What didn't I say yesterday? It's probably my third favorite album ever. I could get very wistful about itI miss Hum. Except when their music gets co-opted for Cadillac commercials. Then I don't know what to think, except that I might be getting old.


Magritte's "The Voice of Space." I have a poster of this, too. I have no idea what it means or symbolizes. I just like it. It's a lot like typical random science fiction art where there's some sort of crazy machine in the wrong setting.


Dom DiMaggio, AKA "The Little Professor." I use this pretty much whenever I talk about sports, because it's pretty representative of my nerd love of sports. Dom was geeky, short, and wore glasses (compare to his brother Joe, who married Marilyn Monroe, fer cryin out loud). But he was still a good athlete and a great player. I just did some reading on him and he's still alive at 90, and made quite a bit of money in business post-baseball. Neat.


[info]otterkin was making icons one day and I asked for one. So this was my reward. Apparently I mention science fiction or science non-fiction on occasion.


From Amelie. After the whole movie and all of her strategems, she finally gets him close and this scene beautifully draws out the inevitable smooching. I mostly use the icon to connote some kind of reward. Or whenever I talk about stalking Audrey Tautou.

Sorry! I responded before I was caught up on LJ and didn't see you'd already done it!

Well, you posted the meme first, but zulkey chose icons first. So you both win!
