Moonie's Ramblings

i like how the last one you put was Who Do You Think You Are?

But it's an actual show - and that truly is the name of it. It's a TV series that follows various superstars (one per episode) as they go on a genealogy journey to find out more about their ancestors. It's a very fascinating show. Especially when sometimes the information they discover tends to connect with roles they've done themselves (i.e. Matthew Broderick - one of his ancestors served in the Civil War; Matthew played a Civil War soldier in one of this films he acted in).

*watches "Unlocking Sherlock" on YouTube* It's cool getting to see the behind-the-scenes aspects of the show after watching the aired episodes and unaired pilot. biggrin

Well, I'm heading off to eat lunch and then head to class. Talk to you later.

Hello everyone! I'm back.

So I was able to sell all but three of the school books I had. Only got about $35 from them. Considering they say they'll give 50% back during the selling back period, they don't seem to follow that statement. *rolls eyes* Oh well. At least I got most of the books off my hands. That's all that matters to me really - get rid of them and get at least some money back for them. 3nodding

And I was just looking briefly at the current cast list for the Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.) sequel, and we'll be getting to meet Mycroft (Sherlock's brother - for those not familiar with the characters of the series) in the next film. Yay! And the guy that's chosen for him could potentially be a great choice to portray him. He's the one that did the voice for Cheshire in Burton's Alice in Wonderland. 3nodding  

[Prof. Moonie]

Only one more day left of Fall term! Woot! And it'll be taking the final test for my Environment & Human Life class. *sighs* So tomorrow I'll be spending a part of my day studying for that. Hopefully I'll do well on it. 3nodding

Interesting little tidbit that I ran across. Doyle based Mycroft Holmes off of Oscar Wilde - and the guy who will be playing Mycroft in Sherlock Holmes (RDJr. version) played Oscar Wilde in a past production. xd
