    Official Announcement, with Permission to Post ...

    Let it be known that our beloved Royal Accountant seems to be the first of the Samandans to reach her landmark 40th year. No wonder she's been hitting the liquor cabinet lately.

    Royal Page, please add to our Birthday list:

    Coley January 29, 1965

    Methinks that all you almost 40-somethings deserve a special Commemorative Bean. After all, our own Queen is also celebrating the same event in August.

    Madam President, any new beans available?

      Deepspace, many hugs coming your way. And blue jello. Yeah, lots and lots of virtual blue jello.

        Astrog (Astrawg), you seem to have a thing for pictures of Sam looking at long, cylindrical, pokey things....

          But I do have another honest-to-God awesome real-life (as real as fiction can be) reason why Sam is such a great character. She inspires real-life girls (like me) to pursue scientific careers and to work hard to get into tough colleges and do research. So, in some sense, I think I can thank the Sam character for getting me my new research position this summer at NASA JPL.
          That is just way, way, way too cool.

                Daniel: Did she just leave?
                Jack: Yes, Daniel, she walked away.
                Maybourne: I may be an idiot, but I can still see her. Uhh, I think I can, maybe.
                Hey that's really good. I'm impressed!

                    I totally hear Jack saying those things!!! Is it just me or has she been around Jack for so long his snarkiness has completely rubbed off on her??? I sure hope so because it was great seeing her not play second fiddle to Jack there for a bit...she has real chutzpah!

                    I thought it was great and hope to see more of that next season...

                    Chutzpah... HAH!!! What a fantastic way to describe the fires of our Sam

                      Good grief! I turn my back on the thread, and suddenly it's gone Freudian!!

                      I believe that Amanda, herself, has been known to comment on the interesting shapes of the alien weapons ... zat gun especially. Let's face it, Sam Carter lives in a male world! As she puts it: "a tiny estrogen bubble" afloat on a sea of testosterone (my paraphrase).

                      That's why I think the fact these actors are now proud parents of baby girls just tickles me! Some pink to balance out all that blue!

                      Funny thing about Sigmund Freud though - in response to his famous theories on sexual development, he was also known to say "sometimes a cigar is just a cigar."

                          Cool! I got to work with the USGS at CalTech for the summer between my B.S. and M.S. Spent half of every day at the USGS across the street and the other half of every day working in the Seismo Lab at Cal Tech. They let me join their summer softball team - even got a hat... orange!... with a seismogram 'logo' on it. Was completely blown away one day when I got up and saw... the mountains! It had rained or some such the day and night before... and suddenly the air was... clear... and... who knew? that there were 4000'-or-so mountains literally right up against the town? Quite a dramatic change in topographic relief.... when you can see it (which is rare). I always wonder what that one summer in Pasadena did to my lungs!

                          Hmmm... have gone way off topic... which is Sam... so I'll curtail my little trip down memory lane, and just send you the best of wishes, aeromathlete! You Go Girl!

                            warn him of impending doom at the hands of Ares...

                            SAM: You know about the Goa'uld?
                            MAYBOURNE: Oh yeah.
                            TEAL'C: You were warned by the Tok'ra.
                            MAYBOURNE: I haven't heard from the Tok'ra since they dropped me off.
                            SAM: Then how?
                            MAYBOURNE: I can read the future. (Having peeled the guango, he bites into it and makes an appreciative sound. He notices that SG-1 are staring at him in light of the statement he just made.) Really!
                            SAM: What are you trying to pull?
                            GARAN: He speaks the truth. King Arkhan is a prophet. He foresaw your arrival and the hand you will play in defeating our enemy.
                            MAYBOURNE: Garan's right. It's all part of the prophecy!
                            (Sam leans down to speak quietly to Harry.)
                            CARTER: Maybourne, what the hell is going on here?


                            ...then later Harry

                            MAYBOURNE: OK. Here we are. I found this place about, oh, uh, ten months ago when I was on an, uh, afternoon stroll.
                            TEAL'C: It is quite a distance from the village.
                            MAYBOURNE: I enjoy long walks.
                            SAM: Right! Long walks, rainy nights, and candlelit dinners. Why are we here, Maybourne?


                            I totally hear Jack saying those things!!! Is it just me or has she been around Jack for so long his snarkiness has completely rubbed off on her??? I sure hope so because it was great seeing her not play second fiddle to Jack there for a bit...she has real chutzpah!

                            Love this dialogue, love hearing Sam as 'the one in charge who gets to be a little snarky' Great dialogue excerpts, Über!

                              ROTFLOL! Thanks, AD for posting the link to that story - I'd read it awhile back and that last line of Jonas' stuck in my head, but I couldn't remember the name of the fic.

                              That's our Sam!
