Buy Daniel a homburg, Andi. Then you can have the best of both worlds.
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Ok. Or? Sail and I could get married and let Daniel watch....

In a world where The Da Vinci Code tops all best-seller lists, how can Jesus the Interstellar Mason (working title) NOT get published?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Jesus the Interstellar Mason (working title) would spawn a cult following and make its writer rich and famous.
Hmm...

What is even happening?
JZ, I'm so sad your uncle passed, because I'd gladly be your lieutenant in niecely duty, seeing as you live on the wrong coast. Should I check the spelling of lieutenant, or live dangerously.
I'm feeling brazen. To intergalactic heck with it.

I tend to keep my ramblings focused on why I like sci-fi, rather than why they should (previous post notwithstanding).
For many who don't like sci-fi or fantasy, I don't think this is enough. I certainly wasn't trying to convert anyone - they can read or watch whatever they way. I just wanted to use it in a serious conversation about something else, and that was apparently bad enough.
Oh, not to horn in on Andi or anything, but I so love JZ's uncle. He sounds kind of like my Uncle George, only with perhaps a few more lovely quirks (Uncle George doesn't wear a hat), so I guess I shouldn't complain too much.

Oh, yeah - totally legitimate use of the sf card in conversation (I didn't mean to imply otherwise, just in case it seemed so; I was responding in that post to Mr. Broom in general, not about your story in particular.) But - yeah, I recall starting many a point with, "Like on Buffy this one time..." and the eyes just glazed over. More's the pity for them, says I!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Question: does anyone know where I can find a transcript of the expository intro that was used when the eps were aired on Fox? I'm pretty sure that they're not on the DVDs, and even if they are, it does me no good since my dad is holding my set hostage.
