So here's been my week...

Saturday: See first full episode of Top Gear (yeah, I know, where have I been); fall in lurv with Hammond.
Sunday: Definitely still in lurv with Hammond
Today: Go looking for Top Gear slash; join Top Gear comm; get Top Gear icons; wonder why I'm yet again in a handbasket.

::sigh::

In other news, I have laryngitis. (Waves at [livejournal.com profile] callistosh65. Here's hoping I don't follow you into full blown pneumonia, though weirdly I feel better than I have all week.)

Okay, one of these days I'm going to have to figure out what Top Gear is, given that several friends have mentioned it. *Feels old*

But I do love the feeling of a new love, so enjoy! Especially as that might make the laryngitis a little easier to bear. Take care of yourself--and, really, avoid the pneumonia route, okay? One f'list member with pneumonia at a time!

Top Gear is an show of insane car geeks doing very silly things with cars. And sniping at each other, whilst also nearly killing each other/themselves. It's the funniest thing I've seen in ages. Plus, Hammond is just adorable. (See icon.)

Shall avoid the pneumonia thing. I actually really do feel okay. I just can't talk.

BTW, shall try and get you a lyric sheet tonight so we can work on our super sekrit project. 'Cause I'm never going to abandon the lads, new shiny fandom or not.

They show it all the time on BBCAmerica if you want to try to catch an episode. They also have a home page on youtube (http://www.youtube.com/user/TopGear). It's a show about cars that even people who don't try can enjoy. It's basically about the three total nutters who host the show.

Ah, BBC America. In a fit of cost-saving, I dropped us down a package in cable and guess which channel was sacrificed? Typical. *g*

But thank you both for explanations!

You can see most of it at youtube and at the Top Gear web site. I'm not addicted to it but it is a lot of fun in large part because of just how smart and funny the hosts are.

Oooh. Bookmarking the Youtube page now. Yay!
