BSG (Helo? Helo?!)
I'm not sure how connected I'll be for the next few days. I have to go to Chicago for a funeral.
(on the off chance, please don't mention it on Facebook. My sister is actually paying my fare as a surprise for Mom)
Where's the praising and extolling of my virtues? Where's the love?

Well. The President hasn't responded, but he has a near full hand of cards, and draws both the colors. We are a hungry bunch. I say, let's go for the skill check. Option 1 please.

Meanwhile, I've been obsessively reading a Doctor Who blog, and it has an entry on Battlestar Galactica: [link] It's largely looking at it from the perspective of what it says about the Sci-Fi/Syfy Channel, and hence about New Who's first foray into the US.

I found a business center at the hotel. Any suggestions for my turn? I can XO someone or I can use my Super Scouting Skillz. It's already been my turn for days so I'm only going to give you guys an hour or so to weigh in.
