You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

BSG

Very good. Don't forget to email me which card you're playing.

Round 1.2 is Adama's. Raq has left conditional orders, so we have:

1. Draw 3 Green and 2 Purple cards
2. Move to Weapons Control
3. Action: Fire on Basestar

There is one possible interrupt: Strategic Planning (Purple value 3-5), to add 2 to the die roll. Twelve hours to hear on interrupts from everyone who's drawn purple so far this game (i.e. everyone but Roslin and Baltar).

I love how we cross pollenated two sci-fi shows with RSV.

I'm not sure I want to know how a redshirt is procreating with a Viper.

Adama: "She couldn't have been just a machine. Could you love a machine?"
Redshirt: "Giving it the old college try, sir! Tip one: lots of lube."
