From JM's blog:

Thanks Susan for asking!!!!

Wow!!! Thanks!!!!

[SETI_fan]

All giddy now thinking about going to the con. Shame it looks like Frakes and Sirtis cancelled, but as long as Pauly's still there, all good. Just gotta arrange a flight and buy the ticket. And yes, it is actually cheaper than the big school trip because, since that one was for school credit, I'd have had to pay tuition, somewhere in the range of $2300, not counting buying a tent, other supplies, food, laundromat expenses, etc. So this is WAY cheaper.

Idlewild, I'd love to room with you and Haliyah if you'll have me! I don't know how big the rooms are, but if we're short a bed, I'll happily bring the sleeping bag I would have been sleeping in for the other trip. Just let me know what I need to do, how much it'll cost, whatever else I need to know.

*squees* I'm going to see Paul! And hang out with sci-fi friends! Oh, I can't wait!

Craig McGill has put up a tidbit in the 'comments' section until he gets the
actual interview posted:

http://craig-mcgill.com/2008/02/19/h...hing-a-little-
different-paul-mcgilion-interview/#comments

Anyhoo, thanks everyone for your questions. I hope these help your
Paul fix until I can post up the interview:

CONVENTIONS:
No, Paul won't be off to DragonCon this year. He normally does it
every second year, but won't be there this year.
So far the only convention he is firmed up for is on in Milton Keynes
in May.
Paul said the best way to find out where he is going to be is through
regular checks on his website.
As for what ones he goes to: "I've been incredibly lucky with the
fans so I try to make sure that I get to see as many as possible to
thank them for their support over the years - but sometimes you can't
get along because of filming or other work-related matters."

Frakes canceled? That's a bummer! Riker has always been my fave trek character, darn. Oh well, at least Paul will be there
Woohoo!! It's going to be one big slumber party!

Join the club... we got 6 inches last weekend JUST when it was started to melt... *sigh* I am so ready for spring!

I've been going down to Albuquerque a lot lately, it's been sooooooo nice to get out of the cold and snow and be able to be outside in shirt sleeves! Is it summer already?

[silvercomet]

Uff, had to read a lot of sides. Took some time.

Thanks to all for the nice pics and posts!

I just watched Sunday. I expected to tear up a little. But I cried. Full-on crying. I was doing okay until the very last scenes.

*whimpers and goes hidey*

I knew what would happen before I saw this ep. I was a little afraid of it. And then surprised that it wasn't so teribble. Well, until the scenes starting with/just before Weir's speech. Then the tears just run...

Hello everyone!
I'm new. And I'm from Germany. So maybe my English isn't the best, 'cause I'm out of training.

Hope you like it!

Welcome/Willkommen! I'm still try to improve my English, too.

Great pic!

Well, I've given it a lot of thought and decided to cancel the summer field camp and go to FedCon.
Seti

Have fun!

[FONT="Century Gothic"]Oh, there's so much more than ONE pic of him in a kilt!

You like a taste of that?! (Sorry for deliberate thunk-reposting of other people's pics )

He looks soooooo good!

Love this pic. His face. Funny

[*Oda*]

And you call ME a bad girl.

This forum has completely corrupted me.

Awwwwww the adopted Carson turtle is so cool! Love it!

On a sadder note.......

*hugs jetflair*
We've all been there, so I know how you feel- I cried as well and I never watched that episode again.

I understand that perfectly, Twinny. But you really should watch "The Ark" now - it's got some wonderful Carson moments! And he looks SOOOO cute in that orange hazmat suit ...

Agreed. :d

He looks so hot in hazmat gear. I brought pancakes for everyone:

I startet at page 400 and yes...I'd a look at every single page.
Finally finished, I decided to join.
And to celebrate my debut I got a little gift for you I created by myself:

For some reason I was in a Carson-art-making kind of mood today.

VERY nice!

Hey!

I was never a regular SGA watcher until this year with the addition of . I had seen on my occasional season 1-3 viewing but I realized how much I missed him when I saw him again in Kindred I and II.

Love the accent. If he were in a kilt there would be no way I could resist him!

Welcome to the thread EH-T! We all love the accent, I think.

*drools over all the kilt goodness* Gosh this man looks so damn HOT in a kilt!!

Or I just can stick with thunking, no money needed to enjoy this

Nope, no money needed for that. *melts in a puddle next to Idlewild*

Gosh, I've been busy this last weeks and I completely neglected my football practice and this thread. I promise I'll make it up to you if you let me.

How about a pic spam

I knew what would happen before I saw this ep. I was a little afraid of it. And then surprised that it wasn't so teribble. Well, until the scenes starting with/just before Weir's speech. Then the tears just run...

I know - similar thing happened to me. Even when he was killed, it didn't bother me that much. I knew it was coming, it happened, and that was that. I started getting very sad at Wier's speech, not because of what she was saying (she's not that great at tributes, IMO!) but because of the faces of Carson's friends....and of course at his team carrying the coffin through the gate.

But I didn't cry until the end, where Carson appeared to Rodney. That ripped me to emotional little bits.

~~~~

I'm sorry if I'm just rehashing ground all of you covered when these events originally happened on the show, but I feel the need to post, so....

I've seen two eps without Carson now, and it's wierd. I'm not sure how I feel about it. They are moving on with the show as though he never even existed!

In one sense, it's nice not to have it rubbed in that Carson is gone, and I recognize that to the average viewer, eps with the team hanging around moping because their friend died wouldn't exactly be entertaining. And of course there is the long-standing TV/SGA rule that not even the most earth-shattering physical or emotional damage to characters shalt carry over to the next episode. Teyla recovered pretty quick from her major abominal wound, too It's not out of character for them to wipe the slate clear of truamas and injuries.

On the other hand.....it feels like a bit of a betrayal, especially at the end of three seasons of character development and a whole season very focused on bonding that team and showing their depth of caring for each other growing. Blink, he's gone, move on. What?????

I just don't know how to feel about it

Well I don't Thunk for him, but I love his character

Spoiler:

and I still can't watch the ending to "Sunday" because of him.

I did a search on google and gathered these up, sorry if they're repeats, there's too many damn pages on this one.

LOL Sheppard little minx, more to around for the others.

He's just a very likable character and the accent is great with some specific things he says.
I'm always wanting him to do a line from Shrek. That would send me to the floor.
