No, she started college in season 4. This is season 7.
Angel: You know, I killed my actual dad. It was one of the first things I did when I became a vampire. Wesley: I hardly see how that's the same situation. Angel: Yeah. I didn't really think that one through.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

What is even happening?
Dale continues to be annoying.
I know. He was so sympathetic for the first episode or two. Now, I keep hoping he'll be a casualty. I prefer Skylar to him, and I couldn't stand her at first.
And Super!Skeet cracked under the fear of his brother being tortured.I know! I was sort of surprised by that whole plotline. I thought the Fake Marine Woman was playing him, and I thought Skeet knew it, and was going to manage to play her, somehow. Hmmmm. I guess I was surprised that there was no surprise.
Also, still no Heather. (Or Heather - still dead.)On one hand, I'm a little more hopeful for the return of Heather this week, because Jake mentioned the
At least we did get an extra dose of bad-ass Hawkins,Yes! That was cool. I kind of like that Ted chickened out, too. I was disappointed for a second, but then I decided it was better to have some people react like that. I don't think I could shoot someone who wasn't directly trying to shoot me, and even then...
I am beginning to wonder about the apparently infinite amount of gunpowder and ammunition. Where the hell did they get the explosive for all those mortars?
It's funny you asked that Ginger, because last night, Scott said the same thing. I joked that they have a gun powder mine in New Bern, but I was totally intending to ask you about gun powder today -- like what it contains, etc. Is it sulphur? Is sulphur mined? Do they have it in Kansas?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I was thinking about the munitions question while I was watching Jericho (Where the hell is Heather?) and I would accept the gloss that New Bern had a National Guard armory or something. I'm disappointed that they're heading for warfare rather than the building a society that works under these circumstances story that I wanted them to tell, so I'm not caring very much.
Having not seen anything else under discussion, yet, I will shut my eyes and flee.

So, I guess they are wasting all their electricity running blast furnaces to make the shells for the mortars?
Sometime last night, I decided that what Jericho is REALLY about is NOT what an actual post-nuclear apocalypse would be but it's an opportunity to put modern Americans in the frontier and how would people fare w/o the stuff that they're used to.

Oh, and the Morse code this week was "We pledge."
I don't get how that or the episode title (One if by land) ties into what we saw.

Dale was poised to be so interesting just a couple episodes ago and now he's just not. It's a shame.
I loved Ted chickening out.
I used to know how you make gunpowder. Saltpetre, charcoal and sulphurl? Sulfur is the part that's hard to come by, I think. Thogh saltpetre being easy to come by might depend on having livestock. And if the kind of gunpowder you can whip up at home will successfully launch mortars is a hole other question. I kind of doubt it.

Hm. Maybe. I would be okay with that premise, too, if they were consistent about it but the whole driving everywhere thing is really annoying.
Title and code just referencing the American Revolution for no good reason? It's reminding me of John Adams asking Abigail to make gunpowder in 1776, but I doubt that's what the producers had in mind.

During the first episode (all I watched, sadly) I kept wondering if it was all some grand sociology experiment and there weren't any bombs at all.

They really do need to stop using horsepower and start using more horses and bicycles. Because - while not everyone will have horses LOTS of people have bikes and know how to ride them.
And how the heck are Stanley, Mimi, Bonnie and Bonnie's slackery bf supposed to plant that entire farm with no machinery?
