The Sam & Jack Shippers' Archive

[ShimmeringStar]

Hello, this is my very first post...I have been reading for a long time, but never wrote anything, I hope this works! I am a huge "shipper" I guess from what I can gather it means. I absolutely adore scenes with J/S.

No, it's not a Texas flag. It has one star, which symbolized his rank of Brig. General.

Happy writing!

Ahhhhh...thanks. I'm not military enough to recognize it. Just saw the star and blue and jumped to conclusions.

That has NEVER happened before

YUCK! Laira's on my TV!!!

Well, tell her to get her fat butt off before she breaks it! Geez!!

As an introduction to the Shipper Town Map, I've written a "History" of sorts of our town. I took ShimmeringStar's inspiration and did a little digging. This "history" will also go into Tasha's book so please let me know if I need to change anything. (all you authors, I'm counting on you)

History of Shipper Town

On July 12, 2004, Joe Mallozzi gave birth to the idea of a Shipper Rehabilitation Commune located in Southern California. Ground was quickly broken, and the Shipper Rehabilitation Commune was quickly constructed to meet the needs of Sam and Jack Shippers around the world. The facility was aptly named after its founder Joe Mallozzi. The mission of the J. M. Shipper Rehab Commune is to rehabilitate Sam and Jack Shippers to a hopeful state of mind and restore their confidence that Sam and Jack will ultimately be together as life partners. Shippers have flocked to the Rehab Commune since the disturbing news of a cloying relationship for Sam. Once Shippers have restored their mojo, they are reluctant to leave the friends they have made. Shipper Town has grown out of the success of the Rehab Commune. Sam and Jack Shippers have created a family as well as a town. Shipper Town is founded on the principle that Sam and Jack are meant to be together and need the support of all Sam and Jack Shippers to fulfil this destiny.

With the Shipper Town and THIS, you so rock, woman!

Okay, I know everyone is probably talking about this as I type (I'm about 4 pages behind) and I'm sure someone is already trying to be logical and has put a positive slant on this, but...I'm sorry...my first reaction to this ep was to start crying. (Is that sad or what?) So right now I'm going to catch up on the posts and hopefully by the time I catch up with you, I'll be a more positive mood.

I only wish I could take the credit!! It's one of those things that's been floating around the forum (and elsewhere!) that I've seen before, and works soooo much better than spoiler space cos you don't have to avert your eyes if you don't want to be spoiled....
Now if only we could figure out how to get the white text automatically switched to the same blue as the background when you quote.....
*runs off to ask the mods.....*

The closest blue is the LightBlue & as you can see it's still readable.... best bet is to *snip*.....

In lurking around other places in the Forum & GW, I think one of the negative aspects mentioned concerning the white text spoilers was that not everyone accesses the Net the same way (i.e., we're all not on PC's) & some don't have the ability to highlight the text to read it (and for someone who really wanted to read it.... not being able to highlight it might not make them too happy! )

[Token]

She is a big ole ho-ker!

LOL!! The first thing that reminded me of was from Sleepless in Seatle where the little boy says, "Help! My dad is kissing a whore!" LOL!

[Sam & Jack Shipper]

Like Joe M., I'm also late for Ship Day. But that's OK, I'm a *former* shipper...*ducks rotten tomatoes and other assorted fruits/veggies*

Gilder, why a Former Shipper?????

"Shipper Town" created by Token

• The first stop in Shipper Town "Home of the Replishippers" is the R(ed) C(ookie) Shipper Town Information Center. Each new shipper receives a beginner’s supply of shipper cookies along with a cookie list and instructions, a map of Shipper Town, and a choice of either a Sam, Jack, Daniel or Teal’c clone with a manual if needed. Jonas and Siler clones are available upon special request.
• We have the Bakery where Ship Nana does her magic. Shipper cookies are a fundamental staple of any shipper’s meal. They can also be used as meal replacements when consumed with caffeinated beverages.
• The Cineplex is where Caty and Marimba show their videos 24/7. Tissue boxes are conveniently located on each chair. "Master of the House" and "I will survive" are hot requests until "My Confession" is a reality.
• The Shipper Park is also known as the "Happy Place." At the center of the park is a gorgeous wishing pond complete with a magnificent Waterfall. One of the favorite spots is the Prayer Garden. Shippers come to the Prayer Garden to meditate, pray and use the convenient writing paper to send TPTB constructive and positive letters on the obviously perfect future of Sam and Jack.
• The Joseph Mallozzi Shipper Commune Rehab is where shippers go to get their "mojo" back. Mr. Mallozzi was the founder of the Shipper Commune, and Shipper Town is immensely grateful for his contributions to our beloved town. Since both Tame and GoneShippin’ are part of the staff, the head administrator Aunt Sally has given each an entire floor to remodel in order to accommodate the noise restrictions. Of course, Tame is permanently scheduled on Tuesdays and Thursdays for the "Jack" room.
• Who could forget the "Blind Faith" roller coaster and "Here We Go Again" Ferris wheel at the Amusement Park? For all those shippers who enjoy getting wet, there is the "Wet & Wild" water slide.
• The Shipper Sipper Bar is where mad_gater brews and serves his concoctions. Mad_gater also cooks a mean BBQ. The secret is in the sauce. Beware the Shipper hooch, as it tends to dissolve metal!
• The Shipper Marina is where the Shipper Ship resides along with many houseboats for Shipper Town residents.
• For the tourists, Sam and Jack’s floating house is a sight to behold. The house is a wedding present from the Asgard. It uses anti-gravitational generators to have the house "float" over Shipper Lake. There is an outdoor area for the dogs to do their business. The security systems that Thor installed include an eye scanner for the front door, hand print scanning for the rest of the doors, and a system wherein when the intruder alert is activated, the intruder will be beamed to the nearest brig in Shipper Town. Mad_gater ensures that all security systems are operational and there are no unwanted paparazzi. However, Sam and Jack’s cozy cottage is available for those quiet moments alone. It is already constructed and awaiting their arrival. The heart-shaped bed was the last bit to arrive.
• Just down from the Shipper Marina is the PlayShipper Mansion. Shippers are encouraged to partake of the many Shipper activities Tame has planned or just enjoy a Jackowacko cocktail by the pool. The Sandy Ship Beach is adjacent to PlayShipper Mansion. On most days, Kiwigater can be found lazing under an umbrella enjoying a cold beverage of choice.
• The Conservatory encourages Shippers to embrace their creativity. It is home to fanfic authors, poets, songwriters, musicians and graphic artists.
• The City Hall is where Ship Nana holds the title of "Mayor of Shipper Town," and where Sam and Jack will eventually apply for their marriage license.
• Across from City Hall is the Shipper Town Post Office. The post office is responsible for all love letters, notes and packages. A secondary function of the post office is to handle all wedding presents and cards for Sam and Jack.
• At the center of Shipper Town Square is an exquisite bronze sculpture dedicated to the founder of the GateWorld Shipper Family, the benevolent Shipperahoy affectionately known as Ship Mum.
• The Shipper Radio Station "69.9 SJLUV" is where Kri and Token play all the Sam and Jack favorites like "I'll Wait for You Forever" and "When's This War Gonna End."
• Gatetrixer is the managing editor of the "Shipper Town News." Gatetrixer keeps shippers informed of all important Shipper Town happenings and the latest news on Sam and Jack sightings and wedding plans.
• Ship Sistah runs the local smiley and gift shop. I hear the T-shirts and mugs are popular items.
• Mala owns Mala’s Photo Madness, the Shipper photography studio. She scrubs and cleans all our thunkable pictures, creates the best Potatohead designs, and is the official photographer of Sam and Jack's wedding.
• The Shipper Dump is where all the bad spoilers, contradicting interviews, and PTB "Pete" fertilizer ends up making good compost.
• The Shipper Zoo. LtLisa takes care of the animals especially the most popular exhibit, the monkeys whose favorite treat is Ship Nana’s yellow cookies.
• Shipper Kinks is the local chiropractic office. The cases of whiplash and tension headaches are on the rise.
• The Sam and Jack Wedding Chapel and Reception Hall is always open and prepared. At a moment’s notice, the Chapel bells will ring, and all shippers will be called to their Sam and Jack wedding stations. Flowers, cakes, decorations, catering, photography . . . everything will be in order for Sam and Jack's special day.
• The favorite night spot in Shipper Town is the "Groovy Gutter." (Although, I have seen a few residents slipping in during the day.) The Groovy Gutter’s furniture is padded with Italian leather so no one is injured during the perpetual thunking. It is also equipped with private rooms for private fantasies and cool down rooms for the overheated. Luxurious Egyptian towels are available for drool spillage, and emergency personnel are prepared for any over excitement.
• Located at the end of Main Street is the Janet Fraiser Memorial Hospital. All the doctors and nurses are experts at treating broken and lonely hearts, cupid arrow injuries, and the occasional thunking mishap. A few cases of cookie and beverage over indulgences have been reported. Nonetheless, the highly-trained staff is ready for any emergency with a state-of-the-art Automatic External Defibrillator and Ship Nana's Pale Green Shipper Cookies.
• The Shipper Town Library has an archive of all Sam and Jack fanfic and houses an extensive DVD collection. Sugarshaker, the head librarian, is eager to assist each shipper find just the right S/J story or episode to fit a shipper’s mood. Computers are available to access the best online forum in Stargate fandom, GateWorld’s Sam and Jack Shipper Thread.
• The little Shiplets of Shipper Town are not forgotten. Critter manages the daycare. An extensive regime is followed so that each little shipper receives careful instruction on the ways of a true Shipper. What would an education be without the Shipper Academy for Higher Shipping? JSDT is Headmistress. Mad_gater is the Dean of Math; LtLisa is Head of Biological Sciences; and aeromathlete teaches Astrophysics. When Kiwigater is not lounging on the beach, she can be found teaching chemistry in the lab. Some members of the Conservatory, Meimei, SueKay, and Getcarter teach language arts. Marimba excels at handling any snarkiness from our up-and-coming Shippers.
• SG1 Happy is the local optician at the Rosy Optical Shop. Each shipper is encouraged to receive an annual exam to ensure that "ship" is clearly in focus.
• Sam_o_Neill oversees the Shipper Telescope Tower. Most nights, shippers enjoy seeing the evening stars and hearing Sam_o_Neill’s presentations of Sam and Jack’s Stargate travels. Sam and Jack have a special spot on the tower so Jack can teach Sam the constellations and where Sam can baffle Jack with the science of what materials stars are made and how a wormhole is formed.
• There are many visitors to Shipper Town. They have yet to openly declare themselves as part of the family, but residents know they are lurking. Special observation decks, complete with red cookies, have been built to accommodate our lurking visitors. From the observation decks, they can give the occasional friendly wave and observe Shipper Town activities. Shipper Town residents consider lurking visitors as an important part of Shipper Town and have faith that one day all lurkers will become residents.

I have to say, I'm quite offended that Jonas clones are only available upon request. How insulting . . . (and to paraphrase a certain Colonel, he's at *least* as good as Daniel).

It also looks like Shipper Town needs a real restaurant - candlelights and music and the works, unless I'm missing where it's written. (That's a lot to take in all at once.) (How can I think of Jonas and not of food. <g>)

And now, the conclusion (I think)...

This is COOL! And I love the Shipper Town history--too funny!

Thank you Mala and Token for all your hard work on this--it is truly a work of ART!!!! And Mala, I just love that look Teal'c gives them in New Order! He's such a shipper!

WELCOME GATEWATCHER!!! You're gonna love it here!

Good luck with your gigs Bev! Sounds like a lot of fun!

((((((((((((((((MG)))))))))))))))) Glad you're back! Your new vignettes will be up (with the titles corrected) tonight!! Thanks for letting me post them!

((((((((((((((Tame)))))))))))))))) Good luck with the kitties, you know my prayers are with you.

Kiwigater--Wow! You are brave! I'm going to have to live vicariously through you--needles give me the creeps and hubs would never go for it. But congrats!!

Welcome Starfury!! As for which actors are shippers? I'm not placing any bets because just when you think they're shippers they say something to contradict that and just when you think they're not, they say something shippy--who knew?

Brandie, I've decided i'm avoiding spoilers like the plague from now ON! I almost threw up from those pics of "Affinity" and I NEVER want to go through that twice again! I say twice because now that I've seen those, I get to go through it TWICE and NO ONE should have to see stuff like that twice. At least this way, I only have to throw up once!

Okay, I'm posting now because I just got a hint of the spoilers through someone else's post and guys--I don't want to know! NOT AT ALL!! So i think I'll retire from the thread now. The white type thing is working really good though--GREAT idea whoever suggested it! Even with spoiler space it's hard not to look!

Signing off to find my happy place again...

I know. The ONLY thing PS adds to this show is showing us what we're missing with S/J.
