What are you...

One can only imagine. She'd certainly do Romulans well. Have you ever read "Brothers of Earth"?[/quote]
No I havent. Its taken a long time and Im not even done with the Foreigner series yet. I could imagine how she would handle the TnT scene. She is very character focused.. I would also like to see her redo Earths Final Conflict.

Just finished watching BSG season 1. Heh a whole season in like 4 days still downloading season 2. And I don't even have enough space on my hard drive for it so now I'm converting all the BSG and SG1 and SGA episodes (which I should have done like ages ago ) with hope I'll stay ahead of the download rate before I run out of space cuz I've got like a whole excessive GB of SG1 and SGA. But now I'm getting like a 2 digit download rate

[TPoptarts]

Just passed 50% on the download. Space I need: about 1.2 GB. Space I have: less than 800 MB space I need for a single Stargate episode conversion: about 200 MB and YIKES now I'm getting like monster transfer rate!! (well which for me is like 30 something ) yep I'd say I'm like totally frelled

[Hondafan]

I watched SGA and they had a preview of next weeks epi with Connor Trineer as Michael the wraith. I like watchin Connor Trineer. I met him once at a convention seems like a pretty nice guy. But who knows?

^ Saw that episode like months ago on the Asgard channel.

I've met him twice (photo and autograph) and then asked him a question on stage once about TnT. He was kind of short with me, but I admit that in the photo and autograph sessions I was near the back of the line, so he could have just been tired.

Another BSG-convert!!!

The thing I experienced right after watching BSG was like "Wow, ST sucks", lol but, you just have to look at Star Trek in its own context I guess. The great thing about BSG is that it's a totally different kind of sci fi. In many ways, it's more realistic and better story telling. To some people, it's unpleasantly dark. But I love it.

I thought SG1 and then SGA more accurately portrayed a space-military than Star Trek -- but that BSG took it to the extreme and therefore for many cases did a great storytelling job, for others it's a little overly dark. You could also say that BSG takes the "good political/war" stuff out of DS9 too. Cuz DS9 got a little darker in the interstellar/socio-galactic political landscape. But BSG does that too.

"you just have to look at Star Trek in its own context"

You really do. Like I said elsewhere...it's audacious. Nothing else is like it, good or bad.

[TPoptarts]

Oh I really like the darkness of BSG. Well and I also like the lightness of the Stargates. And I like whatever the hell Trek is. They're all awesome shows in their own way

Based on one convention and four hugs (three individual and one group...plus him signing my NOT.DEAD. T-shirt while I was wearing it) I'd have to say that Connor Trineer is not only a REALLY nice guy, but he smells good, too.

Watching: Ruffian

Such a sad story.

I'm glad they didn't release this movie last year with Barbaro....that would have been too much.



What can I say? I love horses....seeing them get hurt makes me sad.

Reading:Enterprise: What Price Honor Pretty good so far. I also picked up Articles of the Federation...and Enterprise: Daedalus at the library.

I still haven't read Rosetta yet.

[evcake]

Watching: Fallen Hero. Ambassador V'Lar is a great favorite of mine. My one and only outline for a fic features her.
Reading: The Black Powder War. Like combination of Hornblower and Jane Austin and, and, and...some really great book about dragons. Tea With The Black Dragon, maybe?
Listening: Apocalytica. Cellos rock!

[Rigil Kent]

I also picked up Articles of the Federation...and Enterprise: Daedalus at the library.

Good luck ... I wasn't able to get through Daedalus at all. None of the characters felt remotely accurate to me...

Watching: Just finished the season finale for The Tudors.
Reading: The Eisenhorn omnibus by Dan Abnett. It's about this inquisitor for the Empire of Man hunting the forces of Chaos and slowly being corrupted, and is set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe.
Listening: To thunder.

I gotta say, I have to wonder if he knows that women are his demographic and treats them differently though. He was just sorta short with me.

Watching: Band of Brothers. I've actually never seen it start-to-finish.

Reading: Still "The Good That Men Do" and "State of Denial" by Bob Woodward. I'm also a few pages into the novelization of "End Game" Voyager's finale, but it's really boring. Thinking about skipping right to "Homecoming".

Listening To: Romeo and Juliet (You and Me) - The Wannadees

I am just starting to read Crabwalk by Gunter Grass, a novel about a German family deeply effected by the sinking of a refugee ship a family member survied during WWII. I am in the middle of Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth; which I'm gonna make the grandchildren read over the summer if I have to pay them to do it.

TV? Only ST DVDs, after I flop down on the couch after a long day. If it was a week day - after work. If it was a weekend day - after tending to the boat: washing windows, painting, oiling teak, pumping out the bilge, storing snacks, tinkering in the engine compartment (I have discovered that a Trip Tucker I am NOT)... or out pounding the waves up on plane on Lake Michigan with son-in-law and grandkids. That, or drifting in a rocking boat with a fishing pole in hand beats the heck out of watching TV anyway (except for ST, of course). Son-in-law wants to put a TV in the boat cabin. Over my dead body!

It is hard to settle down to writing fan fic in the summertime!
