    I know this will seem silly to any Canadians out there, but I was slightly amused when I was searching a Vancouver newspaper for possible info on Amanda's bundle of joy when I realized that 'Kelowna' is actually a city in Canada. I had always found the name was a bit unique, but never realized it was an actual name of a city. It's really quite beautiful as well from the pictures they have up online. I wonder if the Stargate series has helped to increase its tourism at all.

    Anyway, I should probably end my OT comments and let everyone get back to their regularly scheduled discussions of Sam and I'll get back to my baby ponderings.

    Sigh, my baby predictions have come and gone...and I was so sure when I woke up this morning there would be info about it because I had such a vivid dream last night that I was talking to AT about her new baby( I typically don't dream about Stargate or AT...well at least that I can remember the next morning so I found it odd that last night I did). I was so hoping it was a premonition of sorts. Oh well...hopefully soon right?

      It's OT, but just in case anyone missed it, the mods have announced that the forum is going to be down for a while sometime in the next day or so while they move to a new host. Here's the announcement There's also a discussion thread here

      It's good to know in advance this time that it's going to be down, and let's hope that it won't take too long for the move. I need to meet my daily Samanda requirement.

        I'm replying to my own post because I don't like what I said at the end, where Sam was ashamed of her behavior. I don't know why I said that, because I really think she was embarrassed by Teal'c seeing her like that. I felt she was very self-conscious at that moment, looking quickly away from him. But I really didn't see her ashamed of herself. (why'd I say that? )


        Sally
        Yeah, I'd agree with you that embarrassed is a more accurate description. I think she knows she has a valid point, but hasn't handled it well.

          This is the first AU Sam that we've seen that hadn't already been associated with the SGC (or SGA as it is in the other AUs) and she's a real geek.

          So apparently, Sam in ANY reality requires the Stargate program in order to increase her coolness quotient to satisfactory levels...
          Spoiler:
          Ha! So true. You notice she and Daniel were still brilliant--something obviously went horribly wrong for them to be in the spots they were in this AU. I noticed how they put AU Sam in mostly beige to emphasize the uncoolness. But you notice how even with the glasses & beige sweaters they couldn't hide AT's beauty? I liked how she signed the non-disclosure form instantly.

          I can't wait to see how Pt. 2 turns out.

              JACK: Excuse me. I distinctly remember someone saying "We're not gonna make it!" I think we made it.
              JACOB: I'm sorry, I overreacted. At the time it seemed we weren't gonna make it.
              JACK: Yes! Well, next time, maybe we'll just wait and see.
              JACOB: (Rather sarcastically, yet with a smile ) And blow the last chance I'll ever have to being right?
              (Sam's grinning behind Jacob)

We think it has to do with the way the superconductive crystals inside the gate absorb electrical energy, but we're also trying to demonstrate that the DHDs are some how producing a purer more efficient source of power.

                  A Cherokee elder sitting with his grandchildren told them,
                  "In every life there is a terrible fight – a fight between two wolves.
                  One is evil: he is fear, anger, envy, greed, arrogance, self-pity,
                  resentment, and deceit. The other is good: joy, serenity, humility,
                  confidence, generosity, truth, gentleness, and compassion."
                  A child asked, "Grandfather, which wolf will win?"
                  The elder looked the child in the eye. "The one you feed."

                    Wow, that's really weird, because I rarely dream about Stargate, and never about AT, but last night I dreamed she'd had her baby and they'd named her Valerie. And then a little later I dreamed she had a boy named Jason. Twins? I thought it was very odd for me to be dreaming about such a thing.

                      Hi all! While the GW forum is down, how about if everyone goes off and searches other websites for cool Sam photos... either to post for 'Guess That Episode' challenges - or to post for 'Create a New Caption'... or they could just be cool Carter photos... photos of Capt./Maj/Col. Carter kickin-a$$... or just great shots of AT acting.

                      Folks could also search for great quotes and anecdotes to share...

                      Then...when the forum comes back up, we'll have fun stuff to share with one another...

                      And, of course, anyone who has yet to post their season 7 Sam highlight comments could type them up so that they are ready for pasting into a new post for when the forum comes back online.

                      NC... is hopefully working on more fun audio clips (asked in a very polite and hopeful tone )

                      Other ideas? (Of course RL is an option for those who must )

                        Perhapse I can see if we can set up a thread over at the Stargate Intel Forum?
                        I don't think SueKay would mind us adding a Sam thread to keep us going till GW comes back up?
