10x13Spoiler:
Tough to complain about 42 minutes of Amanda.
I was surprised that the only argument they had Sam make against Earth's isolationism was that 'it's wrong'. C'mon, Writers, give her big brain some credit! Given the situation, I really don't think Landry (or many of that Earth's citizens) could be swayed by that. If she wanted to make a more persuasive case, how about mentioning the strategic and historical reasons that isolationism may not be the best policy?

I don't think I'll put my name on the list just yet, but I would really love to see Amanda at this.
So who knows.

Oh, I wish it were a little later in the year! There is no way I can justify taking off to Toronto just before the kids have to take standardized tests. This is the first time they've tested, and I want them to be ready. The teacher in me won't allow it. I could always teach inmini's guest roomthe hotel room, but I know me well enough to know that I wouldn't actually do it. I will want to hear all about it when you get home though.
Any news on Amanda conventions for this summer yet? Hubby is trying to figure out when to schedule his vacation time. Personally, I'm hoping for Shore Leave or Chicago. Shore Leave sounds great, but she was there last year. Chicago is the weekend before my 10th anniversary, so that would be good, too. Of course, I want to go back to New York this fall, so Secaucus will work, too.

For those of you who may be Vagina ignorant, like myself, I found this site that gives a bit of insight into the plays.

I (personally) think I'll be going to the Sunday performance at the Phoenix (which is 19+). If others would rather go to the all-ages outreach on Saturday, then let me know in the PM and I'll divide it into two groups so that we can organize. But we'll need to get our collective rears in gear, to have this settled by the 28th (this Sunday). Shouldn't be too hard. How many TO area Samandans can there be, anyway?

I also think the cause the show is supporting is very important.
Spoiler for sensitive topic.

The right words spoken by the right people at the right times can lift up communities, transform lives, mend relationships, break hearts—even topple empires.

Just turned up a bit more info on Sanctuary:
Cast is listed as Amanda Tapping, Robin Dunne and David Hewlett. That may not be the whole cast, though.
ETA: from a description of one of the companies producing the pilot:
a new media company specializing in delivering content over the web. We are in production of our first web series that will start appearing in spring 2007Last edited by parsifal; 25 January 2007, 12:03 PM.
