*Sigh* When I first saw "This Side of Paradise" I was totally jealous of Leila Kalomi... Hmmm.... I don't know.... Maybe I still am...

Ah thank you for the full Ivanova Quotes. My opinion...she's the best XO ever of Sci-Fi (edging out Saul Tigh of BSG)

 

I'm not familiar with Ivanova (I know, deprived!) at all, but I have no doubt that she'd knock Tigh out of consideration for best XO. Re-Imagined BSG I've watched/kept up on: Tigh is cool and everything, he ramrodded the crew, but I don't think he's all "that" as an XO.

 

Maybe there's a separate topic there for the boards - The XO Topic.

 

Commander Christine Vale currently of the Titan series of Trek books? Good XO.

Tigh was a drunk and pissed me off, but in the long run, he was better then some.

It is better to be pissed off than pissed on.

 

And Kendra Shaw was a much harsher XO than Saul Tigh. Even Adama said so.

This is an "OFF TOPIC SITE" So ...in the finest fashion and renderings of non consequential info and data I simply urge one and all to adhere to the rules(loose) on this forum and subesquent replies ...As well as not being a GM..and we all must remember them,as they do apply their own effort to provide...oh wait ,back on the non topic...let us all strive to keep the string in the context it was originally intended for...just my 2 cents. :P.

I have bought one Toy Enterprise NCC-1701, and two Burger King Glasses from the new movie. No doubt someone around here has spent more.

Last night at the nightclub, discussion of a trivia question where Kirk's middle inital was "R" in "Where No Man Has Gone Before."

 

V'Roy: Is that what you call a canonical disruptancy?

 

Leila Kalomi: No, it's what you call a pilot.

 

V'Roy: But Kirk wasn't the pilot, he was the captain!

I just finished watching Love Hina, the whole series, for the 20th time. I just can't get enough. Now if Amazon can just send me the specials that I ordered...

Don't worry, you're not ^^

Whilst I've not seen it, I do know what it is, and have a basic understanding of the concept. And the Japanese penchant for love polygons in anime.

I guess I must be old if I can remember the original "Land of the Lost" TV show. Seeing it on SCI-FI today is brings back memories of Sleestaks and Chaka's. No Will Ferrell in these shows.

Okay, so my replicator looked a suspicious lot like a duck hunter.

I spotted that run! I vaguely recall the show, tried watching, but couldn't take it; the cornball factor repelled me, strangely enough. I usually go right for sci fi cornball.

 

... probably better that Ferrell isn't there. The remake film looks sooooo stupid.

Kansas, there's cornball, and then there's 70's vintage Sid and Marty Kroft cornball. I prefer to stay away from the latter, and enjoy the former.

Yesterday marked the third trip in a row where I had to sprint through an airport to reach my connecting flight, only this time it was with my wife in tow. With my wife in tow, that means there was checked luggage. With checked luggage and 5 minutes to go from gate to gate, that means I have to make a stop at the airport when the 2PM flight lands today to pick up our bags.

 

First of all, $100 for each additional bag to check past the first one? Are you serious? Thank God we only had one each.

 

Second of all, why did the TSA force by wife to throw away her lotion when a) there is Body Shop not 10 yards away from the security check point, and b ) between the aforementioned body shop, the duty free shop, and the countless other stores, I can easily buy enough supplies to fashion any sort of household explosive? I don't get it.

Yeah JJLexi, I'm still mad they threw away a bottle of hair conditioner. And they would have thrown away a bottle of lotion too, but my dad convinced them that it was a special perscription kind, and they let us keep it. If you can stand there arguing its medical qualities and get away with it, I don't see why someone can't make a bomb with something like that.

Why do they keep you from bringing in your own food to a movie theater? Money!! Sure the original ban on the liquids was in reaction to terrorist threats, but the fact that it continues shows me strong behind-the-scenes jockeying by the Airport Retailers Association (or whatever they are called).

 

Whoops, three posts on the same topic - must change...

 

I have a dog that won't fetch, but a cat that will - weird!

Before the topic is dropped, that's why I sneak my own snacks in my purse.

Kind of breaks that whole saying, 'call a dog, and it'll come running. call a cat and it'll take a message and get back to you.' I never thought a cat would do that. Normally, if I ask my cat to fetch (I am joking of course, because I value my life), she gives me this look of pure distaste and prances off.

 

EDIT: I just watched the BSG miniseries earlier this week, and noticed that Serenity (from Firefly) was shown in the corner of the screen when Roslin was waiting for her cancer test results on Caprica, and the Enterprise-D in the fleet when a bunch of ships were going into FTL travel. Hahaha

I once had a cat that would sit up, shake paws, and go to the bathroom on a toilet.
