To be or not to be

I've been thinking a lot about this lately and I want to find out more about my heritage. To be more specific my Scottish heritage. My grandmother's maiden name was MacBeth (can't get more Scottish than that) and even though she died before I was born I want to find out more about where she came from and her ancestors. She was Canadian born, but someone had to be really Scottish to have the last name MacBeth.

Then what I would love to do is go to Scotland and see stuff about where I'm from. I was born with red hair and blue/green eyes, some have said I must be Irish, but nope (that I know of), I'm part Scottish. No one really knows where that part of me came from since my immediate family doesn't have red hair and blue/green eyes.

I think it'll be interesting. I remember my aunt doing research on our family history years ago, I wonder what she found out. I guess I should talk to her about it and my dad.

I wonder where I should start.

Maybe I'm related to Billy Boyd? That would be so cool!!!!! [/wishful thinking]

I think I need a cold shower...

Ewan McGregor and Ryan Gosling in the same movie?

Um, yeah. Hi. Must see this.

*sporks*

I can kinda understand fansites putting their URL or stamp on pics of their celebs, I've learned to live with that. But I really hate it when fansites put their URL, stamp or whatever in the most obnoxious place possible. It just ruins the picture and makes it seem like they're just hoarding all the pics for themselves and not wanting to share. Then what is the purpose of the fansite? Maybe I'm wrong, but that's how I feel. Put it in the corner or something if you must, but not smack dab in the middle.

That being said, I've come across these gorgeous pictures of Stuart Townsend and I was wondering if anyone had them clean (or clean enough). I want to make icons, damnit! I've checked around other sites and LJ and haven't had any luck, so if anyone can help a gal out then it would be much appreciated. If not I guess I'll have to have a try at it.

The pictures in question are these:
