one day that'll work

Morning links!

i. Barak Obama looking at awesome things. Shocker, I particularly love the TARDIS one. I am also hugely delighted by how I recognized at least 90% of the awesome things.

ii. Doctor Who series 5 clip, from the vampire episode. I still cannot tell if Eleven is slightly more Tennant-y than I would like, but I am nevertheless still left with the suspicion that, yes, this is still sounding a lot like the show that's in my head. Also, his old library card makes me DIE WITH LAUGHTER.

I suspect that I need at least three links to make a proper post, but since I don't have one, I will instead leave you with a passage from A Wizard of Mars that convinces me that Ronan Nolan was a huge Doctor Who fan as a child.
"Bad," Ronan said, sounding utterly conversatioal, "this is very bad. We had TV shows like this back home on Saturday afternoons when I was little. This is the part where I always hid behind the couch."
Obviously the only logical conclusion is Daleks! (More on the book itself later; I'm about 3/4 through right now.)

AWoM has so many wonderful quotes. (I'm 250 pages in, and occasionally flailing.)
