Yes. Men like sports. Men watch the action movie, they eat of the beef, and enjoy to look at the bosoms. A thousand years of avenging our wrongs and that's all you've learned?

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

I take it all back, clearly your pilots' professionalism is an example to us all.

Clearly you didn't actually have any work today.

OK, since there's been a stunning lack of discussion about what action to take on the card, I opt to discard one nuke.

One nuke discarded. Final steps:

Cylon Activation: Heavy Raiders. There are no heavies on the board, so the basestar launches one. However, this basestar's hangar is damaged; no effect.

Jump Track? No.

BSG Round 1.3 - Laura Roslin

New Round. Madam President, I am sending you your cards. Please post your move and action. To echo the Admiral's comment, while the choice is yours alone, you may solicit advice from the rest of the crew.

Sorry about the delay, friends. Busy day, but I will send BT my orders in the next few hours.

Fable 2 is making me insane. I got in the elevator with my lunch today, and a guy in there offered me the stick of celery he was holding in exchange for my lunch, and I swear I saw the "-5 Fatness" float up from the celery.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Galactica, Boomer. Can I get a radio check? I think this frakkin' Viper is FUBAR, I'm not getting any radio chatter at all here. Did I miss something?

I don't think so. We're waiting for the President to post her move and action.
