It's like déjà vu all over again! Crisis is: Rescue Mission (B).

ETA: Details were sent in email. I am off to the ballet. I look forward to seeing what the Admiralissimo decides...

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

BSG

Well, surely losing Fuel is still Not an Option. I'm not clear on which choice comes with ninjas.

Research Lab, btw, has roomy and comfortable desks to hide beneath.

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

BSG

Aw, I just got here! t sigh Killing Fuel is no more palatable than it was a couple of turns ago. -1 Morale, Admiralissimo to Sickbay.

I never knew the press could be that violent! Jeez, one little suggestion that they have to share some of the responsibility for the destruction of civilisation and this happens. I've half a mind to cancel my subscription to The Colonial Times.

Hrmph. If one of you could see their way clear to getting me out of Sickbay before my next turn, I'd be much obliged.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Incidentally, I found megan walker's Secret Santa present here: The 2010 Good Gift Games.

Unfortunately, I couldn't anyone who had Last Call: The Bartender Game in stock.

Unfortunately, I couldn't anyone who had Last Call: The Bartender Game in stock.

A game even juliana might play!

That guy's rules for Good Gift Games are pretty much what ran through my head when I opened it.

The criteria I use to make my selections remain unchanged:
•They are easy to learn, with rules that can be explained in less than five minutes
•They are entertaining enough that even the guy who comes in dead last has a great time playing
•They are quick, lack downtime, and require an hour or less to complete

I'm just sad that I leave tomorrow and won't have a chance to try it out for a few weeks.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG

FYI I am going out of town from the 18th-23rd. I should be able to check in once a day.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

BSG

Well, I think making sure we can trust the Admiral is a priority at this point.

Move: None

Action: Use my OPG ability to view Adama's Loyalty Cards.

I will be out of town from the 18th-28th. I think between free WiFi on the planes and (I assume) my siblings' wireless, I should be able to keep things running smoothly. Obviously, I won't have my board with me, so make sure to check your cards, summaries, etc.

Adama's info is on the way.
