So I had a Roman history exam today. If Michael Rosenbaum knew half the images of him I used to help me remember various laws, he'd be mightily embarrased I'm sure. For example - lex Fufia Caninia - Lex with a fluffy poodle under his arm.

Also, do we know how Dr. Swann got the key? I'm very confused by the whole episode, whose name escapes me right now. I think I'll call it The One Where Clark Rips Open Lex's Shirt.

Can I move in here, where I'm a half-assed fan with a passing interest in stuff? I walked past a cubicle here, and thought "Turnabout is fair play." This very guy had stopped by mine to discuss LotR, and here he was with an SG1 calendar up. So we chat.

I completely outed myself as a huge SG1 geek.

Except I'm not! Why don't people read the internet more? Then he'd know who was going to me on SG: Atlantis, and about RDA's reduced schedule. And not look at me kinda funny.

It was a lovely calendar, though. Lots of pretty pictures, with April being the best. Daniel's in the middle, with a very serious look on his face, pointing a zat. He's flanked by Sam and Teal'c, neither of whom are slowed down by a lack of weapon (they're making guns with their fingers) or the goofy looks on their faces.

This one, ita? I love that shot. So funny.

...um, did that make you feel any better?

current mood: geeky

People are so inconsiderate.

They really are!

I know some of this stuff and I don't know one SG-1 episode from another.

(See, I don't even know what the abbreviation of the show is. . . )

I'd forgotten how cringingly bad some of the first season eps were.

IJS. Does everyone not have a boxed set?

Still, he e-mailed me a link to an SG1 screensaver, so I forgive him.

But still -- relatively little food per animal and etc

Emancipation's already aired, hasn't it? What are you watching?

I'd forgotten how cringingly bad some of the first season eps were.

For some reason, I'm noticing how overwrought the music can get. It's really distracting and funny. I'm onto the Nox ep now (Snyder!), and things seem to be settling down, musically, more or less. (ETA: Erm, OK, not entirely. But it's getting better)

ION, as I was driving along today, listening to a Graham Parsons tribute album (ETA: I specify only because I hadn't been doing it before I popped in this particular CD), and I suddenly realized that I was vidding in my brain. It was high-larious. And then I couldn't stop doing it, which was even funnier and also kinda creepy. I tell you, though, there's some Angel/Lindsey on that thar CD. Hmmmm ...

S1 is ripe with the cheese, but I like it anyway. The wacky headgear on the Land of the Light people and Principle Snyder in drag crack me up instead of making me cringe. Not much can salvage "Emancipation" though. Well, OK, I liked the rancid yak butter exchange. The latter half of S1 is actually pretty damn good.

The only other episodes I found unwatchable in the entire run of the show came from S7--namely "Space Race" and "Avenger 2.0" (oy). I watched "The Other Guys" (the first ep with Felger) couple of days ago, and was actually surprised at its non-awfulness. No episode with Jack spitting out, "You ended your sentence with a preposition! You bastard!" while writhing on the ground could be that bad.
