Icons: Master & Commander: The Far Side of the World

[olde_fashioned]

Icons from Master & Commander: The Far Side of the World. You can blame regency_stills for these! ;-) While I typically prefer movies with at least *one* woman in them, this is among the few exceptions to the rule. I cannot help but regard it as a sort of "what Jane Austen's naval heroes did when they weren't dancing at balls". LOL! Oh, and the costumes are faaabulous...

As always, please credit/comment if taking, and enjoy!

Ooooh, it's strange that you should say that, because I always do that, too.

Are you calling my brother a nerd? ;-) He most certainly is not, although he calls himself one sometimes. He is about as nerdy as I am -- if you think I'm a nerd then he would be considered one, too. But then I typically regard the term "nerd" to refer to someone's habits as opposed to their physical appearance...

Ah yes, the dinosaurs!! It's all my fault, you know. When I was reallyreally little I liked The Land Before Time and all that stuff, and I even had dinosaurs on my birthday cake one year. So I guess you can blame me for all that! lol!

:] I recant of my statement, then. You are in a better position to judge. I also own I never thought about the meaning of the word twice in my life!

I used to collect dinosaur stuff like crazy when I was about ten or so; I stilL go to the natural History Museum in London and know what I'm looking at before I read the sign. Lately, I have learned to feign ignorance of the fact. I still love Walking with Dinosaurs though.

Now you stop that. ;-) I'm no judge, and you needn't recant anything. I'm no intellectual, and I may not seem like it, but I do ponder things on occasion. ;-)

Oh, oh, I think Walking with Dinosaurs is wonderful! I bought that for Spencer's Christmas some years back, and I alway enjoy watching it. Those little baby sauropods are adorable. *pause* It's always nice when the perfect gift for another is also very agreeable to one's self, mmm? lol. (and I happen to think that Kenneth Brannagh (sp?) has a very nice voice).

And as for knowing what I'm looking at, I can tell the difference between a Stegosaurus and a Triceratops, and I know it's T. rex and not T-Rex, and various other things I've picked up via osmosis. But when it comes to metacarpals, or proximal and distal ends of femurs.....!!!!!

*squees at tiny sauropods* They were, weren't they!?! I loved their adult counterparts too. *has a sudden mad urge to see the series again*

*Lolz* I don't know those finite details either (though I recognize them as osteological terms). Don't know about you, but I somewhat prefer art and fashion...

*echoes squeal* Yes! I have always preferred sauropods. My brother likes theropods better than the "wimpy" herbivores. ;-) Typical boy... Remember the leanalasaurus thingies? (I know I misspelled that...but hopefully you understand me...I am driving the spell-check crazy with all these paleontological terms!!)

Last night we watched a tiny bit of W&D, the scene where Roger mentions comparative osteology? That describes Spencer to a T. ;-P But I love to hear him talk like that.

What do you mean, you don't know about me?!? Silly!! If you don't know me well enough BY NOW -- !! ;-) *lol*
