Sam Carter/Amanda Tapping Discussion/Appreciation

[Uber]

I'm not really sure what her official middle name could be...though I have a feeling you are correct in that it's probably a family name. Didn't Amanda say once in an interview that she doesn't have an official middle herself? Unofficially it was probably "Sam".

I'm almost positive that Olivia's middle isn't the same as my daughter's whose also starts with a "B" - Brienne.

In honor of of Samanda, I personally have been lovingly refering to her as...

Olivia "Bean" Kovacs

Kat

Well at over 9 pounds, I'm sticking with my original guess...the "B" stands for "Bighonkinbaby."

So, sorry Kat; but her name is Olivia "Bighonkinbaby" Kovacs.

[ForeverSg1]

Citizens and Honourable Members of the Court of Samanda,

To slightly misquote Echo and the Bunnymen, I feel the time has come to Lay Down My Trenchcoat And Groove.

I hope one day to be able to fully partake in Samandan life, but until I have been educated in the ways of Samanda by the esteemed Royal Accountant, I promise I'll just sit quietly at the back and try to keep out of everybody's way.

Oh, and just for the record, I'm (even) older than the aforementioned Bean Counter.

Until next time,

1s4S

Welcome

to the wild and crazy

world that is

[sg-1fanintn]

Uber....."Bighonkinbaby"?

Sounds like a Southern colloquialism to me!

Uber....."Bighonkinbaby"?

Sounds like a Southern colloquialism to me!

More like a "Jack O'Neillism"



btw, I've updated my ULTIMATE SAM banners for the project I'm working on:

[Coley]

Hurahhh - computer holdin' up long enough to post.

Ohhh everyones putting up wonderful captures, banners etc - Just love them - though I'm skipping all the season 8 stuff. You all amaze me with your technical abilities. ForeverSG1 you just have come on leaps and bounds - a career opening up perhaps?

Right so what is the price these days for introducing a strapping middle aged gent to the Samandan Kingdom. Bearing in mind what I've had to do to get him here!!!

Let me see... Well I had to keep him sweet the last couple of weeks, so I had to hold back on the flood of sarcasm cast in his direction for his oh so mid life crisis purchase of a singlespeed mountain bike. Guess who's always waiting for him at the top of the hill on lightweight 27 speed scouring the track below with a pair of bins. Do you know how difficult it is for a Lancastrian to hold back the sarcasm - you so owe me.

Ahh then there's all the tea, popcorn, chocolate that will come with introducing him to the dvd world of Stargate - yes I hate to be the one to squeal, but he's a Stargate virgin - yes indeedie!

Then I will have to put up with all the "Aint AT super hot" comments while I wallow in the world of very average looking gal.

So I've just doubled the official male count on SAGCT and I'm hoping doubled the male mail count too!! (Hint to 1s4S on posting expectations!!)

I'm sure you will agree my time away from the thread hasn't been in vain errrr sorry vane or is it vein?!!

Right dare I risk a fatal crash and go back a few pages to catch up?

Oh and have all the coffin dodgers whimped out on age declaration?!

Cheers everyone! - Bottle of "Dirty Dick" raised heartily. Obviously not a favourite of the Jester seeing as it was the only think left in the drinks cabinet. Methinks she goes for the less mature things in life!! (As I'm sure Murray will testify)

[Coley]

Uber I just love, love your sig -

Kat

If Amanda doesn't have an official middle name, perhaps B doesn't stand for anything... just the initial B. Which is one letter more than her mom has!

Brienne is a beautiful name.

Other "B" names.... Beth, Becca, Belle...

[Coley]

No chance

Computer crashed out again!!! Bah!!!

A big HELLO to all the new members - I've gathered in snippets there are a few that have joined the fold recently

I'm off to ponder the ultimate Sam episode

I'll leave with a quote I try to bear in mind most of the time:-

"Life is far too important a thing ever to talk seriously about" - Oscar Wilde

Many thanks for the list, Strix - I bookmarked that post so I can come back to it!

So Uber, I went back and found even more places in It's Good to Be King where Sam got to be snarky or snide. Here are some pictures and sounds to go with your quotes and the next post will have some new examples.

I'm totally with you in hoping that Sam gets to be a smart-a** at least some of the time next season.

What fun, NC! Thanks for the pics and audio!

Still in the scene where Harry is explaining how he can read the future..

Maybourne: As a result of my translations, I predicted a major flood would destroy the village unless I could convince the elders to move to higher ground.
Sam: And of course you told them where these predictions came from.

Click here to listen.

Next up is the scene when Sam, Daniel and Teal’c find the puddle jumper containing the time machine..

Sam: Well, I’m guessing it must manifest some sort of energy field that encompasses the entire ship, allowing the traveller to literally fly through time
Daniel: I wonder ... (He reaches out to touch the device but Sam stops him.)
Sam: Ah! Let’s not touch anything just yet. I’m kinda fond of this era.

Click here to listen.

(I can really see Sam channelling Jack here, when she tells Daniel not to touch it. )

Here's the scene when Jack is flying the puddle jumper toward the mother ship and trying to fire the weapons:

Sam: You’re doing great, sir ... (the ship jerks around) relatively speaking.
.
.
.

Sam: Keep firing, sir.
Jack: Nothing’s happening.
Sam: Weapons must be depleted. Hopefully you hit some vital systems.(A few moments later, the mothership blows up.)
Jack: Think that was vital?
Sam: Relatively speaking.

And finally, Sam's reaction to Harry's admission of polygamy..

LOL! Great clips, NC! Thanks so much for creating these posts for us to enjoy!

LOL! Great comparison, NC!

Oh Lastly

Can I just say a heartfelt thanks to everyone who has put up missing Coley posts, welcome back posts and cheery rep messages. I have missed joining in the fun on this thread and it is nice to know I have been missed in some small way.

I think I will be back on form only when I managed to get a new computer. In the meantime don't forget me and I will posts when I can get onto the thread without crashing!!

Juts loved the AT photo's MajorSam posted of her at a convention.

Everone heading to conventions soon have a great time!!
