Thankyou MajorSam for posting the link to the pics of Grace Under pressure. As I am so out of the loop, I'm going to make the assumption that this is an episode of Atlantis that Sam will be in? While I have grown to quite like McKay as a character in Atlantis, I still remember the, um, last time he was on screen with Sam. Gave Sam the opportunity to say some great lines (I'm thinking along the lines of "Go suck a Lemon", "Shouldn't it be pointing at the Gate", and other such) but god was he a jerk. Surprise surprise, the pics of their next meetup look just as I expected, Sam grimacing, Rodney looking wistful, Sam looking annoyed, Rodney looking lovesick, Sam diverting attention to their work and away from herself. Sounds like they might actually make it work though. And wow, for a 'pink' outfit, that is pretty stunning. Beats the fluffy jacket from before any day .
As I haven't really been here since Gabit and all the news announcement stuff, does anyone know if there were any more pictures from the event posted? I'd really love to see pictures, even if I can't catch up on everything that people wrote.
And Kat, your latest sigpic is a stunner. And no, I'm not trying to suck up to you, but I actually really do need some help from you. You're the only one I know with an MSN blogspace, and I've run into a bit of a bump with mine, and was wondering if you knew how to stop unknown people from posting #!*^ in the comments section?
Oh, and any other important news/events that have happened while I wasn't here would be much appreciated, though I don't expect anyone to waste their time searching for it if you don't know off the top of your head. Sorry if I keep asking people to help catch me up.
One last note, I've proofread this post, but if there seem to be a lot of spelling mistakes, spelling mistakes that involve missing H's, it's because my H key's gone a bit bung.

Anyways, how've you been!? Wat amazing exciting adventures ave you ad lately. I really really missed your posting. Samanda needs your fun and exuberance! Please stay this time. What a coincidence that we both turned up again on the same day . If there's anything I can fill you in on I will, but I think the regular members of Samanda would be better at doing tat.
*hugs* Yay I'm so happy that you're back.

Speaking of BtS, I just finished reading a very good AU story regarding BtS... it has a very different ending to the episode, but if you really enjoy AU fics, I'd definitely check this one out. The author calls it cr*p, but I really liked it personally. It's 29 chapters long and the last chapter does delve a bit into S/J. Just a warning for those who twitch when they read Sam/Jack together.
Edit: Happy T-Day everyone. Even if you didn't celebrate it with pumpkin pie and turkey, I hope it was a lovely day none the less.
Oh and MG! Keep them coming please. These sketches are absolutely stunning. I only wish I had half your talent.
Thanks for the link, ForeverSg1 I rather liked the first few chapters I read, too. I've read "cr*p" and this is not it! Guess I'm sympathetic to anyone who manages to complete any writing, unlike me!
Just sayin', hope everyone had a swell (read that as "delicious") holiday. Last post til morn. Night, all.
OMG, You don't know the logo on the zipper!? It's a HUMONGOUS brand designer name in Vancouver at least rite now... it's called Lululemon, and lots of fluffy rich young girls wear it... HAH! I totally could not belive it when I saw the logo on her zipper... literally fall off chair kind of thing... oh wow...
Okay, okay - deep, dark confession time: Simha is logo-recognition challenged.
I have McDonald's down from sheer dint of repetition, and RCA because both my parents worked there, and Nipper is so darned cute. But, much beyond that - I had a particular book about attack aircraft for years before I noticed that the A-10 on the cover had been painted up with the warthog that's a logo for one of my company's product lines. I own a Toyota and somebody had to point out to me that the logo forms a "T" in an oval; I was thinking it was some kind of a funky non-mercator globe, maybe with Japan circled... So, please believe me when I say that not recognizing the logo in question, no matter how upscale, or popular on the other side of the continent is but a minor achievement (fiasco? ) for me. My apologies for being such a sorry sartorial failure.
Spoiler:
So, Rodney the Canadian hallucinates trendy fashions for the wealthy Vancouverite twenty-something? Um, that's... surely that's... indicative of... something... besides being out and out disturbing. And even more disturbing that he hallucinates them and a matching, cleavage-baring top onto a decorated military officer who would hurt him in ways he probably can't imagine if she found out about it! Maybe Rodney really goes for tormenting himself with what he can't have, hmm? Or is it that his subconscious is very observant, trying to tell him something, and throwing in every scrap of symbolism it can muster in hopes of being noticed against the glare of his ego?
Thank you for the education, MajorSam: it's interesting, and very amusing in that " RODNEY! What Have You Done!!! " sort of way - but, please, please, please don't expect me to recognize the whatsit if I see it again!
...a very cranky blog:http://simhavaktra.blogspot.com/
MajorSam: Yeah, tis a great site and GUP... G.U.P... Grace Under Pressure, the ep those pics are from, hehe. Again, if you want to know more details, just ask!
*slaps forehead* GUP=Grace Under Pressure, of course . Hang on, maybe I shouldn't slap my forehead so hard, or I might end up looking like Rodney in those pics .
I still want to know more though! I haven't heard anything since the "Amanda's going to be in 20 episodes split over both SG1 and Atlantis" news that came back from Gabit.
Oopsies, laptop!Alert, my bad! *gives bandaid to laptop* there, all better and Hey, my combat boots are very nice thank you, not huge clonking spiked laptop!destroying things
I'm sure you're boots are really neat, so don't worry . Still, maybe better to kick ass with than to kick laptops. Like replicators, well, do they have asses? *raises eyebrows*
Lol *blush* *hugs* I've missed Samanda too it is quite funny we've both come on on the same day... hopefully, and only in hope, i'm going to be on some more now that it's nearing Christmas!!! *This is the official warning to all Samandan's that I might actually seriously be posting like... more than once every two months *
Sounds good to me. I'll hopefully be around a little more too now it's leading up to Christmas. Time for some seriously not serious Samanda folks!

Third highest ranking! Whoohoo, you go girl! You'll be up there in no time. See, I always knew you were LtCol.Sam material . Though here in Samanda, you will forever and always be MajorSam . And Good Times indeed, sounds great all this stuff you do out there in the foggyness of Vancouver. Anyone who doesn't know, MajorSam's Army tales are great reading.
What have you been up to??
(((((Deepspace)))))
Well, apart from wondering what to do with myself (both short term and in te future), not a lot. Certainly nothing interesting like you. I've been reading a lot of textbooks, which I actually do find interesting sometimes, but I doubt you want me to write a whole post on that. Hmm, if I think of anything interesting, I'll tell ya, but nothing's springing to mind. Your question has suddenly made me realise how little I actually do do . Scary.
/me goes back to waiting for GUP AND a Smangyvalizeryless episode
Oh sigh...
