To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice, with pie.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

I am storing all the "4 years ago" items in my Epileptic Trees keep-sakes trunk.

There will be one tinfoil beanie awarded for each correct "4 years... Aha!" speculation.

If I only had a brain...

Ooh! Very pretty redesign on the Wiki, Gus. I hadn't seen it for awhile.

Thanks, Betsy. It was greatly influenced by the goilfriend. My visual esthetics are limited to avoiding the blink tag.

eta: While we are here, and nearly on the subject… Who is 'tivodivo'? I posted something in B'racracy to P-C about epileptic trees a while back. Ten minutes later, there was an entry at the wiki by "tivodivo" about epileptic trees, followed a few minutes later by a reference at TwoP by "tivodivo", followed by a gazillion hits from TwoP on the wiki from that entry.

Tivodivo is a Buffista lurker or a Buffista with a nom-de- TWoP.

I like it, too. It's starting to feel all homey and comfy.

I did read somewhere ( The Fusilage or EW ) that someone (Fury?) said that the season would average two days per episode, but that was just an average.

Was that post wishy-washy enough?

All is well that ends in pizza.

Also, Jack said they'd been there 4 days at that point. And this is the 4th episode. Now, to see what they say about time on the next one.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

No, the numbering makes sense. I would expect the first group of episodes to show a day-by-day series of events. When they start to settle in then the show can cover more days in one episode. I guess the important thing is that by the end of the season 40 days will have passed.

I have a feeling I'm going to have some very entertaining cognitive whiplash every time Merry is on screen.

I'm right there with you. I though he was cute in LOTR, but now is just easy on the eyes. Sigh. (you gotta love a guy with British accent)

I've gotten to the point I don't even associate him with LotR anymore. He's Charlie, now.

Who? moi??

You all know he starred with Patricia Routledge on Mrs Winthrop on the BBC for several years, right? I had a terrible time with LOTR because I kept seeing him differently.
