Who knew I was such a good micromanager? Good shooting Boomer, as usual.

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

Alas, given the current Crisis, the Admiral doesn't seem to have taken well to being micromanaged. She's snapped, ordering the marines to administer a microbeating! Staff Sgt Adama has been chased into the hangar deck; What will happen next - will he hop a raptor and flee until the Admiral has cooled off, burning off the last of the Fuel in the process; or submit to the beating he so richly deserves?

Come to think of it, that's ambiguous punctuation right there. I'm now thinking that, in a spectacular role reversal, Adama is expressing his love of all things shooting-Boomer related.

Geez, can't a guy get some sleep?

I go with Option 1.

Sir, you are looking a bit blue. Maybe you should go to sick bay.

Why does NO ONE BELIEVE ME when I say she's one of Us?

Jumped the fleet - TWICE - and killed people - TWICE.

Now shot Dad. AGAIN.

I mean....gah!

Dude! I say the (former) boss man is looking a little sea sick, and I'm accused of shooting someone! WTFrak?

As for Mr. Peanut-Gallery-Dancing-Queen-I-can't-sing-a-note Toaster-boy. Clamp it!

But bullet wounds take longer to heal, and the brig time SUCKS. Nope, you are *NOT* shot. Just a little under the weather. Doc will blow smoke in your face, and tell you to grow some 'nads, and throw you back into the battle.

I saw that as "...bottle" the first time, and thought "WOW! Boomer's BITTER!"

Only that the Toaster-Queen fooled me. Still kicking myself about that one.
