DH went only for 250??? Wow, I thought he was much more popular

And yeah, I'd bid on David Blue, but since I'm not going to the Chicago con and since DB isn't coming, I have no reason whatsoever to bid

Too bad you didn't won though. Meet and greet would have been awesome. You could have given him Torri's message in private

And tell him about Atlantis Rising in private...
And indeed, better luck next time!!! Maybe at our own convention

Yeah it would be a convention sparky fans definitely deserve. *sigh* Who will organize that?

Anyway guys, good night. Day was craptastic. I hope it will be better tomorrow. Been working on a fic but it's going nowhere. *hugs*

**Southern Red** · 23 July 2010, 01:47 PM

Final bid on Joe was $1010.00. Not bad for just one hour with him and 9 other people. I'll save up for next time.

*raises hand* My friends say I'm an awesome organizer, so I'm willing to give it a shot. But we can only do that when we have a good lift-off with Atlantis Rising (no pun intended). That way we can reel in sponsors by giving them the figures of the site.
btw: I suggest calling the con "Atlantis Rising" too

*hugs* Hope you feel better tomorrow!!

That's not bad... you have to remember that when you have to share him with 9 other people, you can only talk to him for about six minutes... if the other 9 don't hog all the time

So you have to see if it's really worth spending all that money on...
Oh, I almost forgot, but it's OT

She made a list of songs that she wants to hear me play on a guitar. She send me a mail with all the songs and with it a link of a vid for each one. Each one is related to John and Elizabeth. She knows I'm obsessed.lol
The first one: Blink 182 "I miss you".

I don't know how I will play it on the guitar. It's more for piano.
If you want I can post all the links one by one.

I love this song. I bet this song sounds great on acoustic guitar. A very nice video too.

I heard those sgu actors are very nice people. Out of those three the only one I would want to talk to would be Huffman(TJ). I actually like her character.

I really like David Blue, and I like his character(Eli) too.
Agree about DH, i'd thought he'd have gone for more.

Wow, thats a lot, just to spend a bit of time with him. But if someone has the money, it would be a good way to spend it'

That tends to make things longer, not always the best water conservation method

Oh, sorry. I thought you were saying so long. Now that you're here, do something Sparky.

I just rewatched Siege 2 and 3 and I must say those are the Sparkiest episodes. The bits in Siege 2 when Shep is defending Elizabeth and standing up to Everett are just the best. And it's like there's a big elastic band holding the two of them together at times. Such great days.

The best of times indeed. Back when MG was accidentally writing for us

I love the name Peter

Now I'm not so sure I do

I did, but I'm not sure if anyone actually called him that on the show. Weir, Rodney & Shep were not on a first name basis with him, that much is certain

Lol, Elizabeth is clearly not a scientist: "You want to build a windmill?" ROFL!!!!

I read something on GW around that time saying that her answer, while put in there for comic relief (I

so hard at that), was actually more technically correct. That was based on the fact that in terms of energy, a hurricane produces considerably more harvestable energy from wind than from lightening. But practical situations mean that it is impossible to harvest - it'd have to be a very strong windmill.

Anyway, the major spoiler re: the crossover:

Spoiler:

In Sparky news, I came up with the final scene of my AR episode "What Dreams May Come" while on the train ride down. And yes it's on The Balcony; kind of a callback to the "wouldn't be the same without you" scene.

Interesting stuff coming out of Caprica:

Spoiler:

May have more later; until then, keep the Sparky home fires burning!

No surprise on the crossover

Don't they make a good looking couple

Oh wow! I love that so much. How does Torri keep looking younger? If we got them together in a real con, we wouldn't be able to stand it.

Think about vacation.

It's the freckles. You may not believe me, but guys really do prefer the natural look. Plus we don't have to wait so long for you to get ready that way

Originally posted by Southern Red View Post

Vacations can sometimes be more stressful than working. I need cheering up too. I bid on the meet and greet with Joe but I'm afraid they are now way past my upper limit. Dang that boy is popular. It's at $600 with about 20 min to go.

And OT:

Exactly.
Now I just imagine John playing guitar.

For the con, where do you want to do it?
Kris, if this happen for real, I can help you. One of my jobs in the past was to do evenments.

Now I will cry alone.lol ouch ouch...

Ah, but Atlantis gets its water supply from the ocean, so conserving water is one of the few things they don't have to do. That way John and Liz can make it as long as they want

Yes, it does make more sense to take windenergy from a storm, but it would take a lot more time.
But it's just the way she says it and the way they sorta go "hu?" for half a second that makes it funny

Well, if we want to save on general costs, we'd have to do it in the US, because that'll save us a ton on airline tickets.

It will be also a good reason to visit this country.

Keeping in mind that travel between the major hubs here is cheaper than going to a smaller place. Sometimes it is cheaper to fly to Europe than to go to a midwestern city from the east coast. LOL There are some great convention hotels in DC. Plus my house can sleep as many people as there is floor space if they bring a sleeping bag. LOL And we're 10 minutes from the metro.
