There's always something going on...you guys keep me informed, make me smile and are so supportive of each other and Amanda. I've visited/lurked at other sights and the negativity is so discourging, and a bit overhwhelming, but one visit here does wonders. So thanks for, well, thanks for being you.

    I would green you all if I could, but to be honest, I have no idea what that even is!

    awe...Welcome J-To-The-Essica to Samanda! Glad you decided to stop your lurking and I hope you continue to stick around and join in on all the craziness and fun that goes on here in honor of AT.

However, you might get a kick out of David's comment on what Rodney looks at as Sam walks out of a room.
    Very cool! I'll have to give it a go later though. Too much written there for my eyes at 2am. Thanks for sharing the links and I can't wait to read it later.

    Enjoy!




    *eta*

    Just one piece each guys, that's my lunch!
    heh...the orange candy reminds me of one kind that we can get around Christmas time here. This though is shaped like an actual orange and covered in a very fine orange foil. You unwrap the whole thing and can break it off in segments like an orange. Of course it's delicious. What chocolate (flavored or otherwise) isn't?

    Reprise: A Salute to the Thread
    (originally posted on its first-year anniversary)


    Many fans have come and gone
    And yet the SaGC thread goes on
    It seems to have a life of its own
    Through ups and downs, the posts have grown

    No matter who or where we are
    Some so near, some so far
    Samanda is our happy place
    To honor Sam/AT, full of grace

    Other fans may think us mad
    A Royal Court? An imaginary land?
    Perhaps they don’t really understand
    Why admiring Sam produced something so grand

    Over 80,000 replies of fun and mirth
    In discussing Sam Carter’s worth
    It started as a single simple post
    From MajorSal, our inquiring host

    She touched a nerve and we resonated
    To the fair heroine who had Stargated
    Into our homes and our mundane lives
    Bringing female power alive

    Sam was what we wanted to be
    Brilliant, gutsy, and so on key
    She could handle anything in stride
    She was just as capable as the guys

    As the seasons waxed and waned
    Sam Carter grew and we exclaimed
    “Of Sam Carter, we’ll never tire
    She models, motivates and inspires”

    Yes, she’s had her moments of despair
    Times we thought the script needed repair
    But through it all the core was true
    Sam Carter was a winner too

    Her face and figure left its mark
    But something more, that inner spark
    Is what drew us here to talk of her
    A reality-based well-acted character

    Amanda Tapping kept her engaging
    All the while her own life changing
    From young ingénue to solid lead
    Even marrying motherhood to career, indeed!

    And so we watch and always wait
    For Sam Carter to travel through the Gate
    Here we post and sometimes falter
    But always expect the best for Carter!

    A simple toast to SaGCT, may ever it strive
    To keep the role of Sam Carter front page and alive
    Now is the time to raise a glass and give a loud cheer
    Sam Carter rocks, each and every year!

    HERE'S TO THE TAPPINATOR! HERE'S TO US!

    Thanks for sharing your wonderful talent with us! I've enjoyed reading each and everyone of your poems. Well done!

    Love your banner btw

      It's the same Terry's stuff, just in a bar

      I remember when a friend of Torri Higginson (whose partner is called Terry) had an orange sweater that Torri had left at her place. She put it on and said "I'm Terry's chocolate Torri orange!"

      I think of that whenever I hear them mentioned now

            Welcome emmynorman!

            Glad you decided to de-lurk and come out of hiding. I know I've been in the same spot as you here before and even now I still visit other threads around GW cloaked in invisibility, but it's much more fun and you make some awesome friends when you do the big unveiling. Hope you decide to stick around and join in on all the fun here. I do suggest running from teh licking though. It's a bit for me at least.

                        What would Sam wear for Halloween?

                        (I was just thinking of asking the same question)

                        As a kid, I bet she stole some of her Dad's Air Force clothes and went trick or treating as an officer or commando.

                        When she was little she went as Dorothy (from the Wizard of Oz)

                        Comment


                          I know. Belated reply, but am just catching up:

                          Whether or not Sam should have gone on the rescue mission in Reunion?

                          As a new commander, I would have gone on the mission just to see what PG ops were like and see the Wraith. It has nothing to do with 'wanting to go offworld', it has to do with making future decisions. No it isn't something Sam will do every time, but she needs to do it at least once. Not only to prove to herself and others that she can, but see their tactics and strategies in action. Now she can adapt her experience more quickly to the new situation.

                          Just imagine the criticism she would get in a few episodes the first time she sends a team out and something goes wrong. I could see naysayers saying "Carter doesn't know anything about Pegasus, how can she send the Team out. She was stupid?"

                          Well, now she knows. So, there shouldn't be any criticism in the future. I know. Wishful thinking on my part

                          On whether or not she 'de-balled' Shep?

                          Is this a word?

                          Did Hammon 'de-ball' Jack when he and Tealc rode the ship through the Stargate to save everybody in Into the Fire? No.

                          YYYEEEEEEEHHHHHHAAAA

                          Comment


                            To the Lurkers:

                            Posting isn't too painful

                            I've just started and I'm already over 100 posts. It doesn't feel like I've said all that much, but they add up fast.

                            I think it is amazing there are as many 'viewers' as there are. Doesn't this thread have more 'views' than any other except RDA's?

                            Go Sam

                              Debate: Samantha Carter vs Helen MagnusHhhmmmmm?

                              Tough question!

                              There are so many things about Sam Carter that mirror my life, she would be tough to give up. But, the new adventure of Helen M. is intriguing to say the least.

                              Atlantis is new to me as is Sanctuary. So from that perpective, it is a tie. However, I still seem to fall asleep during Atlantis but Sanctuary immediately grabbed my attention and I was sitting on the edge of my seat the entire time. (That may have had something to do with my broken office chair though )

                              Wardrobe? I like Sam's eagles, but Helen wears lots of interesting styles.

                              Sam's American accent is familiar, but Helen's sounds exotic and changes over time.

                              Both have long hair. You have to consider the IMPORTANT criteria you know

                              HHmmmmmmm......

                              I guess I'm leaning toward Helen. There are 10 years of SG1, two movies, and one year of Atlantis for Sam. Yes, I'll miss the character dearly when she's finished, but I've still got the DVDs. I would love to see Sanctuary continue. There is a huge potential for characters and stories. And with the talent behind the camera, a good track record for 'good' and 'great' episodes.

                              P.S. Is it obvious I've found the formatting buttons?
