Biggles and Ginger vs. Holmes and Watson LMAO. A clip from the first episode of the British sitcom The Thin Blue Line. W.P.C. Habib tells Inspector Fowler that she thinks Biggles and his mate Ginger are the same as Holmes and Dr. Watson. Inspector Fowler is played by Rowan Atkinson and his reactions are hilarious. Habib is awesome.
Manga Bookshelf A site full of discussion, resources, roundtables and reviews of manga.
BraveManNewWorld This is an interesting YouTube channel. I watched Another Earth about the possibility of finding other Earth-like planets and this video on the Archimedes Palimpsest.
Scandals of Classic Hollywood
Green Mile Pretty photo by Oleg Gordienko. I would love to walk down that tunnel.
Tsunami in the Sky Wonderful storm cloud photos.
The Whistleblower starring Rachel Weisz looks good (though not really a relaxing/fun subject matter.)
Heroine Content Reviews books, movies and television.
N.K. Jemisin asked for anime recs here and I loved how user Maria recced Skip Beat:
"So the problem I have with most shoujo is that the girl is always so cute and naive and the boy is always such a giant asshole and I’m like “GIRL YOU ARE SO CUTE AND NAIVE WHY ARE YOU WITH THIS GIANT ASSHOLE.” Skip Beat is the story of the girl and the asshole. She is in love with him. They’re living together. She is so happy! And then she finds out he’s an asshole. And proceeds to spend the rest of the anime TRYING TO RUIN HIS LIFE. IT IS AMAZING. I LOVE HER SO MUCH."
Perfect. Reading that gave me a huge rush of 'I ♥ Kyoko' and now I want to go re-read the manga from the beginning.
