Bartlet looks up from his papers and asks, "Why the long faces?" Josh and Sam glance at each other. <br /><br />"You want to tell him?" Josh asks. <br /><br />"I think you should tell him," Sam replies. <br /><br />Josh clears his throat. "Sir, it looks like Denmark says Greenland isn't for sale." <br /><br />Bartlet, visibly startled, says, "Well, I should hope not." Josh and Sam look at each other, then look away. "Are you telling me we were thinking of <i>buying</i> Greenland?" Bartlet asks incredulously. <br /><br />Sam murmurs, "I told you it wasn't a good idea." Josh talks over him, "Sir, we thought it might be worth looking into, what with all their... mineral resources... and..." He stops, frozen by Bartlet's stare.<br /><br />Leo comes in and asks what's going on. <br /><br />Bartlet replies, "It looks like Greenland isn't for sale." <br /><br />Leo glares at the two abashed staffers and says vehemently, "Well, I should hope not!" <br /><br />Thus ensues a three-minute lecture from Bartlet (aided by a pissed-off Leo) about North European economics as they relate to dumbass ideas like <i>that</i>, interrupted only when Abbie comes in and tells Jed to leave the boys alone and let them get back to recess.<br /><br />.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=serai&ditemid=925218" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments tag:dreamwidth.org,2012-01-03:1372916:920484 2017-12-20T01:11:42Z 2017-12-20T01:11:42Z public 1 .<br />So it looks like John Legend is going to take on the role of Jesus in the live musical of <i>Jesus Christ Superstar</i>. Interesting casting! They've also got <i>Alice Cooper</i> to play Herod, which just tickles me enormously. It looks like it'll be a good production, so I'm really looking forward to seeing it.<br /><br />I wonder who they'll get for Judas?<br /><br />.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=serai&ditemid=920484" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments tag:dreamwidth.org,2012-01-03:1372916:919335 2017-11-08T21:40:09Z 2017-11-08T21:40:09Z public 1 .<br />So what does everyone think about the news that Amazon and Warner Bros. are in talks to produce a TV series of LOTR?<br /><br />Myself, I'm fine with it. The more, the merrier. Every adaptation will add to the tapestry of the story, and honestly, I want to see what other actors and filmmakers will do with the story and the characters (not the mention Middle Earth itself). I'm happy there'll be another version I can enjoy!<br /><br />.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=serai&ditemid=919335" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments
