Elijah the storyteller.

[layne67]

omg this site is so cool. I've never seen it before. It has children's stories recited by professional actors and one of them was read by Elijah! There is another one read by Sean Astin, too.

Heh, I wonder if he'd accept offers from the other SAG Foundation ( Slash Authors Guild ) to recite slash fics :P

How cool is THAT???? And I've never heard Elijah say his own name before. Now I know that the "j" in the middle is fully pronounced, and not just slurred over. *grins*

[layne67.livejournal.com]

Oh, there's another way of pronoucing Elijah? Like the way some European countries pronounced J as Y, you mean? :)

[shirebound]

No, I've been pronouncing it with more of a "zsh" sound in the middle, like Zsa Zsa Gabor pronounced her first name. (That's the best example I can think of.)

[layne67.livejournal.com]

That sounds very sexy!

E-li-zsha.

Esp with the image of Zsa Zsa Gabor in my mind :DD

Awwww, these clips are so sweet, aren't they?
But you try to kill me, right? With your suggestion of Lili reading SAG stories. With HIS voice!!! *melts away*
I want a computer program which can synthesize voices to every spoken text. So someone could read a story, than chase it through the computer and listen to it read by Lijah in the end. And I'd let my hubby say he wants always to clean the house and then he must do it ... *sigh*

[layne67.livejournal.com]

I want that program too!!! Oh boy, someone would be making a LOT of money if they can come up with that :DD

He's not supposed to read it. He's supposed to show it.

[layne67.livejournal.com]

Oh you naughty naughty girl!

*imagines Elijah showing his audience how to do the lovers' Tongue Twister*

:DD

[melyanna-65.livejournal.com]

Show us some slash, Lij!

OMG!

*faints*

[arabia764.livejournal.com]

I haven't listened to this for ages!

It's one of my comfort things. When I'm really, really stressed I play it in the car and he calms me every time.

I's the barking I love best -- so very Elijah.

It has been around a long time? I've just found it yesterday. Pity Orli was not there too :)

[arabia764.livejournal.com]

Oh it's years old. Just look at that wonderful kitty hair -- to die for!

[layne67.livejournal.com]

Psst, in case you missed, go here :)

Thank you so much for the nudge in the right direction, I would have hated to have missed that.

[melyanna-65.livejournal.com]

Isn't he the sweetest guy ever?

Awww. I've got this clip, but I didn't know where it came from. I'm going to upload it on my LJ, so you all can save it!

Slash Authors Guild sounds great to me, I hope he's going to read some good slash too. Can you imagine him reading the "Oh Sam ..." lines?

*pervy hugs*

[layne67.livejournal.com]

I'm going to upload it

Yay! Thank you Mel, I'm looking forward to saving it on my comp.

Heheh, "Oh Sam ..." *faints*

[honeyandvinegar.livejournal.com]

Oooh! This sounds so neat, I'm gonna check it out!!

[layne67.livejournal.com]

He looked totally adorable :D

[lbilover.livejournal.com]

Isn't that just the best? I think Elijah reached the epitome of adorableness there :) Did you ever see the hysterical spoof that someone did where Elijah is reading Dom's diary?

[layne67.livejournal.com]

No!! Where is it? Is it a fic?

[lbilover.livejournal.com]

Oh geez, I simply can't find it :(( And googling didn't turn it up. I'm so sorry. It was the video of Elijah reading the book, but someone added subtitles that made it sound like it was excerpts from Dom's diary. Pretty hilarious. But I bet someone out there probably has it if you posted and asked. :-/

[layne67.livejournal.com]

I found it! I found it!

*bounces happily*

*wipes tears*

[lbilover.livejournal.com]

Yay for youtube! Isn't it hysterical?

[wynterhawk.livejournal.com]

OMG! I have seen icons from that, but really didn't know what it was for. Oh and man! I can imagine him reading some hot piece of slash, with special guests of course!

[layne67.livejournal.com]

He has seen the manips so I'm quite sure he has read the slashfics as well :DDD

Hmmm, I wonder what his favourite fics are ...
