fajrdrakoNeedless to say, this was the result I wanted and I am very happy about it. Too bad I can't fix the misspellings and poor English usage in the text, though. I guess a nice picture of Nine will make me forgive even lapses in comma usage....
 | You scored as 9th Doctor. Running from the past but deadly when faced with it you where leather jackets and will fight to the end.

(creator of the Daleks, brilliant but bad)
In equal places are the 4th and the 6th doctor.
(the fourth is 'the one with the scarf' a popular excentric and the sixth is the one in the multi multi colored outfit who seemed to care about no one but himself but in the end rescued the day once and again)
But Davros....!!
Well, so it must be

Was that Tom Baker? I've heard a lot about him.
Well, so it must be
Somehow his reminds me of Ian McKellen, who's so very nice, but he makes such a dramatic villain.

Date: 2006-08-21 01:32 pm (UTC)Personally, I have a lot of scars on my body, and I like to keep them covered - no sleeveless shirts, no short shorts. I'm not sure whether it's vanity or shame, but I certainly don't like to show my scars without good reason, if I can help it.
no subject
Date: 2006-08-21 01:51 pm (UTC)And also, it is protection against people asking about them. I have a good friend who has the problem that she self-harms. she cuts herself on her arms. But she chooses to wear short sleaves and not to cover it up. (the scars are noticeable if you look at her arms, but not the first thing you see about her). Still, I must say I think it is brave. Having to explain sever mental problems with a stranger who asks nosy questions is not what one is waiting for.

Date: 2006-08-21 02:05 pm (UTC)Very interesting with your friend who scars herself. I think it is brave too, and it may be part of her own statement of selfhood, or her relationship to others (not wanting to hide), or a sense that it isn't worth the bother to cover, or a self-reminder of the problem, or a distaste for too many clothe - who knows?
Anyway, we all have things we either don't want to explain on demand to nosy strangers, or things we don't even want to use to trigger the curiosity of nosy strangers in the first place.
When I was a kid (and my scars less easily hidden) I used to have to answer awkward questions from well-meaning adult strangers who obviously thought my parents were abusing me or starving me. That made me very uncomfortable.

Date: 2006-08-21 03:18 pm (UTC)My friend would dearly not scar herself, not self harm, only sometimes her mental anguish is too much to bear and that is the only way she can handle it.
But she is not ashamed of the scars, of the problem, even tough it can be hard to explain (an even more obvious scar she has is the wheel chair she is in (jump)) some people have soo many scars.

Date: 2006-08-17 12:52 am (UTC)Going on crusade would be cool. But I imagine any of the Doctors could go on any crusade they wanted any time they wanted to.
I am envious.

Date: 2006-08-17 02:39 am (UTC)1. Hartnell
2. Troughton
3. Pertwee
4. Baker
5. Davison
6. Um... okay, I need help on this, since I don't know the order of McCoy and Colin Baker. (Also the two Bakers confuse me.) Okay, from Wikipedia:
1. First Doctor, played by William Hartnell (1963–1966)
2. Second Doctor, played by Patrick Troughton (1966–1969)
3. Third Doctor, played by Jon Pertwee (1970–1974)
4. Fourth Doctor, played by Tom Baker (1974–1981)
5. Fifth Doctor, played by Peter Davison (1981–1984)
6. Sixth Doctor, played by Colin Baker (1984–1986)
7. Seventh Doctor, played by Sylvester McCoy (1987–1989, 1996)
8. Eighth Doctor, played by Paul McGann (1996)
9. Ninth Doctor, played by Christopher Eccleston (2005)
10. Tenth Doctor, played by David Tennant (2005–present)
Not too difficult, really.
I'm assigning myself this as memory work while I'm out of town.

Date: 2006-08-17 01:43 am (UTC)Eccleston was excellent for the part they wrote him, but I prefer Tennant -- old school charm with new school character development. He's the best of both worlds. Plus, DT is a fan, and it shows. You can tell how happy he is. CE, as good as he was, treated it like a job.
no subject
Date: 2006-08-17 02:35 am (UTC)I always answer these quizzes honestly too, and the truth is that I identify with Nine more than any of the other Doctors - insofar as I know them, which isn't far at all, except for 8, 9 and 10.

What a great description of Ten! I love Ten deeply and passionately, but Nine is the one I relate to more. Love them both, of course.
DT is a fan, and it shows.
That extra bit of panache?

Re: whaddaya know

Re: whaddaya know
Date: 2006-08-21 03:52 pm (UTC)Meanwhile I am miffed with myself because I failed to videotape "The Empty Child" when it aired on CBC last week - waah! I already have it on DVD but I'd sort of had my heart set on getting the whole season on videotape so I could watch it in the bedroom. And that's my favourite episode.
Hmm... I wonder if this is an excuse to buy a second DVD player?

Re: Doctor Who Wins Hugo
Date: 2006-08-27 08:23 pm (UTC)Have the other results been released yet? have you heard what won 'best novel'? And other categories?
Damn. I wish I could be at World Con. I'm even fantasizing now about going in 2008, when Lois McMaster Bujold will be Guest of Honour. Of course, with her as GoH, I'm not likely to actually meet her or get a chance to talk to her. I'd much go to some pokey tiny con somewhere that she might attend. No, scratch that, of course I want to go to World Con, I just want to go to all the other cons too. And Denver is a good city. It has The Tattered Cover, where I've met up with Dunnett fans for coffee and dessert. More nice memories.
Re: Doctor Who Wins Hugo
Date: 2006-08-27 08:32 pm (UTC)Their website hasn't been updated, but aparently Serenity won in the Long Form category, which I'm also extremely pleased about. Wonderful news all around! :)
Re: Doctor Who Wins Hugo
Date: 2006-08-27 08:36 pm (UTC)Wonderful! I didn't think it was a great movie in its own right, but as a tribute to those wonderful characters, and to the skill of Joss Whedon, and to the whole doomed and beautiful show.... Serenity deserves it as the finale to an amazing brief moment of television excellence.
