Mesut Ozil's New Community - [livejournal.com profile] crinkly_ears -  Is Up And Running!

Last night the moderators decided to unexpectedly retire the old Mesut Ozil community [livejournal.com profile] o_ozil

Mesut's new community is here at [livejournal.com profile] crinkly_ears

And please note: Nearly all the content from his old community has already been transferred to [info]crinkly_ears!





 


So if you love Mesut Ozil, his crinkly ears and his splendid playing for Real Madrid and The German National Team
please drop by to say hello, post something, read a little - whatever!

Have a Mesut day everyone!

And If I Could Have Made A Fan-Video For Lira...


It would have been this one...





It turns out, some random dude on Youtube with impeccable taste in women compiled all of Lira's most adorable moments in every commercial, interview or feature I've ever seen of her - and many of my favourite pictures of her too. This is the work of a true fan!

Crinkly-Eared, Bug-Eyed Gorgeousness Turns 23! A Massive Birthday Spam!

Ah yes -  Mesut Özil. He has that indefinably lovable and schizophrenic quality that I like to call "Mesutness".

What is Mesutness? I do believe [personal profile] verses has come up with the best description: Mesutness is when you are theoretically too cute to be hot...



Mesut - looking utterly adorable tying up his shoelaces.


...But you inexplicably manage it anyway when the occasion calls for it -



Mesut - sweaty and sizzling while tying up his shoelaces.

This morning an e-mail was waiting for me from my sister. "Terrible news about Jack Layton," it read. I'm so sorry."

I logged into the Globe and Mail to find out what she was talking about - and then I saw the news. Jack Layton Dies At Age 61 of Cancer.





We all knew he was ill because of the press conference he gave when he temporarily (or so we thought) handed over the leadership of the NDP to Nycole Turmel of the Quebec Caucus, but he'd promised he would return.

Ah...Bromances! Who doesn't love them!? With the silly season upon us, Jenny thought it would be a good time to look back, and pay tribute, to one of Mesut's dearest friends! So she presents -

The Lukas Podolski Appreciation Post

(Nearly 80 pictures - so NOT dial-up friendly)

Right around this time last year, as the World Cup in South Africa was in full swing,  Mannschaft observers noticed something odd. Everywhere Lukas Poldolski went, a certain someone was bound to follow!
