Special Agent Tim McGee #11 - He had us at Howdy

[Michele]

hey does anyone have any pictures of McGee saying "he had me at howdy"?

thanks.

[saskie73]

Don't flog me with a USB cable, but which episode was that? I may be able to help but I can't remember which one it was...

Wait, never mind. I just remembered. It's tough to get a good one from there, I tried.

[Michele]

thanks Saskie those are great. ;D

I heartily approve of He had us at Howdy, and yeah, it's a season 4 thing.

Ah, well all will soon be made clear, I have no doubt.

I'm so jealous, everyone has such lovely banners.

I don't have a banner!!! You don't need to be jealous of me!!!

Thank you, geeport, that was exactly the look I meant!!!! *rowr*...

(Just so I know for future reference - does a tiny 'rowr' - i.e. *rowr* class as being disrespectful even if it's just a tiny, appreciative sort of a 'rowr')

I don't think that would be disrespectful ;D
In context..... but I'm more of a woah kinda gal anyway.

Oh, last night I *finally* admitted to my husband that I'm a member here and at the SM fan group - he laughed at me and told me "you're disturbed" LOL
me: "What?? You could be twins! You're both lefties, both build computers, both 'into' the geek stuff - I'm sure he could help you with (whatever problem it was he was having)! Want me to ask?"
hubby: "No, I'll figure it out. You're disturbed. "
me: ROFL

Silly man, he knows I love him....

[probette]

There's an SM fan group? Gosh the things you just don't find out when you don't have internet access!! Is this the Yahoo! thing I've heard mention of on occassion???

You should tell Mr Kentuckymama that loving McGee is not the act of a disturbed person, rather, it is a reflex action to his general fabsieness - and also just the kind of thing that you'd do if you had a bit of a penchant for computer geeks and sinister lefties!!!

(also, HATE to harp on about it, but when I say the title confuses me - what I really mean is this: what in the world does "he had me at howdy" actually MEAN??? Y'see, when I know that I think I'll probably understand the whole thing a touch better!!)

I'm not a Princess, but I'll answer this, if that's okay.

In Dead and Unburied, Tony and McGee had to wait all night for the techs to bring out the ground scanning radar (or whatever it was called). The next morning Tony uses Ziva's deoderant (ick) and tells her that "We watched the sunrise together. It was very 'Brokeback Mountain'."

McGee comes up and clasps Tony on the shoulder and says, "He had me at 'howdy'."

[Amphitryte]

Yes ma'am, probette ;D

And KentuckyPapa just has a strange sense of humor..... "meant that in the nicest way possible" he said..... *sigh* Okay, honey, sure you did. tee hee.

So, have you seen Brokeback Mountain? I believe it's on DVD here in the states. Movie is a little over a year old now? Maybe two? Jake Gylenhaal (sp?) and Heath Ledger play the main characters. Thank you tweeter for 'splaining it - Dead and Unburied has to be my favorite ep so far, it's the only video I have on my iPod

[FatCat]

Wow! I've always love that BBM scene!! ;D

BTW, thanks Kentuckymama, burntsugrr for your kind words, you make my day.

Kentuckymama, you should really change Kentuckypapa into a McGee fan, so we can help you tease him back when he joined the board or the list, "Kentuckypapa, you're disturbed" ;D

burntsugrr, not sure what has happened to you and saskie, but IMO, it takes guts to apologize, for that, I admire you.
And thanks again for liking my work, I haven't done it for a long time. You can always take that 'McGee you're all grown up' banner and use it in your sig. I make all these for the Princesses. And *shamelessly unplug* I have some other McGee banners done in these threads, see if there's any you like, feel free to use if you find a favourite.

probette, guess you understand a little more about the phrase after Tweeter and Kentuckymama have explained it? I think 'Howdy' is a greeting they used a lot in Texas. At the time McGee and Tony were referring to Brokeback Mountain was because Gibbs has McGee and Tony stayed at the crime scene (which was in the wood) overnight and as you can see from McGee's cellphone (the header I done for this thread on page 1), they're watching the sun came up! LOL! It was just like what the lead characters in Brokeback Mountain did. And I do think, McGee and Tony were saying it just to tease Ziva.

Ah, I totally get it now!! That's brilliant!!! I knew I'd love it when I knew what it was all about!! Am totally looking forward to Series 4 more than ever, everything I've heard so far sounds fabsie!!

Thanks kentuckymama (can I call you KM for short?!), shall check said site out.

Hey everyone look! This is ME! Posting AT NIGHT!!! I managed to sort out my broadband connection today, I am SO EXCITED, I've never had broadband before and I've not had the internet at home for four years!!! The trick is going to be dragging me off this computer at three in the morning - so much to see, so much to do, so many livejournal things to set up (whatever they are!)

So many shiny new McGee pictures to find, save and keep in a little McGee file on my 'puter...!! *sigh*

Sure, or you could call me Julia ;D
Ya know, just don't call me late for NCIS LOL

Although tonight we've had storms and all I got to see was weather anyway..... so I have to wait another day to see the newest ep. Eh, it's April in Kentucky, weather happens.

[Amphitryte]

Are those caps from last night (Grace Period)?? I can't wait to see it tonight!!! Thanks for the caps ;D

This is just totally another one of those "hug your nearest television set" moments!!!

(and I kinda want to be a filing cabinet... don't ask me why...)

[burntsugrr]

That image kept me awake all night last night. When I would finally drift off to sleep I'd dream about him sitting there all sad. Broke my heart.

Fatcat I'm heading right over to look at your banners now, you are SO kind. Also I'd like to state for the record that I did NOTHING admirable in the me and saskie thing, that was all her.

wooo I can't wait until last night ep downloads so I can start capping that, and I'm already starting on heart meds just so I can live through next week!
