Sparky is on screen. Therefore, it is canon. Elizabeth is still out there. And John WILL bring her home.

Dipped my toes into the Mediteranean Sea and *shrieks* ... that was cold.
But otherwise the weather is really nice, and spying on the boats coming and going is fun too.Heightmeyer's Lemming -- still the coolest Lemming of the forum

The weather is vile here. Huge rain storm. It's so windy they actually closed the beach! I drove down there this morning and there were barriers up around the parking lot.
I'm still laughing about you seeing my name on a license plate. When I originally got a car, I tried to get a JT plate but none were available at the time. Just as well, though, since my mom gave me her plate after she stopped driving. It had been her mother's plate before her (it was their initials - well, my mom's maiden initials). So now it's cool that I have the family plate.

Well, we can choose what goes on a license plate, within reason (although some that I've seen I can't say hold much reason) and for a steep price -- 1000 euro (+ 38 euro for administrative expenses) (= 1124,87 US Dollar).
Since the price is steep, most don't and go with the system in use, therefore all our license plates start with a 1 or a 2, followed by 3 letters and 3 numbers.
You can keep the plate when you buy a new car, or opt for a new one.Heightmeyer's Lemming -- still the coolest Lemming of the forum

Also, on the license plate... sometimes people get really unlucky choices. Recently spotted the following combo 2-FCK-[numbers not important] ... I mean... ...easy to remember sure but a bit awkward nonetheless.

Originally posted by Scary Kitty View PostWow! I don't know how much personalized plates are here (and it's probably different for every state), but I can't imagine they're that expensive. After all, it's a money-maker for the government.

Originally posted by JT-2 View PostThanks! It finally ended in the afternoon. It's chilly here too.

Originally posted by Scary Kitty View PostLOL, whoops! I'm surprised no one caught that before it went out...
Vacay is over. Flying home tomorrow morning.
Don't want to. Bleh!
Got some images coming to insta still -- visited some cool sites yesterday and today.
And today we went off-road for a wee bit and nearly got ourselves lost.

Good morning, Sparkies! Happy Sparky!Family Saturday!
Originally posted by Falcon Horus View PostStandard plate so no checking what comes out in the combos. There's a better check on personalized ones since certain words are not allowed, or like copyrighted ones. My preference "TARDIS" would probably not get approved.

Nearly got lost?

Originally posted by JT-2 View PostWell, I am not really following like I was, now that they are past the Elizabeth years. I'll catch a post now and then, but I'm not keeping up like I was. Seasons 4 and 5 just suck and I don't care about them. *shrugs*
It was long enough ago that I had actually forgotten some of it.
I just found an old Gateworld article that talked about Torri saying she was upset about how her exit was handled and then Joe Mallozzi responding by basically saying that she should have been grateful. I had forgotten about that, but it all came back to me at once, and suddenly it was like I was back in 2009 and 2010 being resentful of the showrunners again.
It's especially funny given how much seems to have changed since then."First Weir, then Samantha Carter, and now, you! It's a pity you humans die or get reassigned so easily, or I might have a sense of satisfaction now!"
*You got the touch! You got the poweeeeer!*
"Arise, Woolseyus Prime."
"Elizabeth..."

I don't follow Joe Mallozzi on Twitter, but some of his posts end up on my timeline. Each time I see one, I feel a spark of rage.

Good morning, Sparkies! Happy Lazy Sunday!
Welp, we're off for the surgery trip today, so I'll be offline until probably Tuesday night. Have fun, and as always, try not to burn down the internet while I'm gone!

Originally posted by JT-2 View PostYeah, I have not forgiven them one little bit. I can keep a grudge with the best of them.
