You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Wow, I hadn't realized Dinah Shore was that old. Her looks really held up pretty well.

Heh. I think she'd dead now, dude. Plus she's from my country or whatever, and we have a Boulevard named after her.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Apparantly I'm the only one here who read Tales of the Slayers, Vol 1, where Virginia Dare is a Slayer.

That's the book version right? I have the graphic novel, but haven't read the short stories.

Wasn't Darla from Roanoke, though, and isn't it insinuated that she and the Master wiped out the colony?

Hard to believe that Victor, the house she was in was way, way too nice for an early colony like Roanoke.

But historical accuracy was never too big on ME's priority list...

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Also, the subtitle in that scene said "The Virginia Colony", or something like that. I'm not sure that would include Roanoke.

Well, the Viriginia colony would have been founded after Roanoke disappeared...

Ah, well. Haven't seen that one for awhile.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

The script says 1607, and I'm going to try very hard to ignore the very well-established colony, not to mention the presence of nuns, in the year Jamestown was founded.

See me? I'm ignoring. lalalalalalala...

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

You never got the fun mystical stuff? That's too bad.

No, not really. We did get stuff about the Iroquois, but mostly just the bit about the organization of the Iroquois Confederacy influencing the Constitution.

Doesn't worry me so much. I mean, I'm pretty sure Spiro Agnew wasn't literally a demon in our world.

I bought the first two 1602's today and I'm in love with the art work. Very beautifully done.
