You see.... I sent my new recruit, Pei Pei, on a mission to give the birthday gift.
Spoiler:

First of all she got beamed aboard an Alkesh vessel. It didn't put her off too much though; she decided she could use it to her advantage!

But when the Replicators got involved, she KNEW that she was in trouble.

We thought it was all over for little Pei Pei when the bugs attacked.

But with a little bit of help from Jack and Sam (they're even married, dontcha know!) we managed to find and deliver the perfect gift!

Here we go!! *
*Can I just say how talented this person was for making this cake? Look at all the detail? So so cool. If you do a google search for penguin birthday cakes, some of the stuff is incredible!
This is TROLLOP Leader completing operation "Happy Birthday" for the former Purple Leader (Dude, what *is* your new colour designation in the squadron?).
Happy birthdays also go to Samfan31 and Smileygidget! Many happy returns!

Ok, let's talk about Amanda, my favorite topic
First, the awesome Helen icons
Originally posted by SamJackShipLover View PostI also posted my icons on the Sanctuary thread, but figured folks would like to see them here too. Some icon spamming, cause I've been iconing like crazy for the Ultimate Sanctuary Icon Challenge. Helen only, from a couple of promo pics. Everything is snurchable, but when used on Livejournal, please credit my LJ.

Batch 3 I like them all, and batch 4 I really like all of them too, but 06 and 07 are particularly very, very well done .
Here's some side stuff
Originally posted by EvenstarSRV View PostI just realized that I made it to 100 posts today. I'm a Jaffa Warrior now! Cool!
I'd just like to thank all of you guys again for making this thread so much fun to read and post in. It's quickly becoming my favorite way to take a break from studying for my classes.
And of course, thank you to Amanda Tapping for making Sam Carter such a great character, and for making Sanctuary the show I'm most looking forward to see this fall.
Oh, even bigger on contrats for thanking Amanda too. It's because of her that we're here, I could write 5 full pages about Amanda talking about how great she is, and I'd never thank her probably enough for all she's done.
Originally posted by Chelle DB View PostMaking a quick jump in tonight!!!
If Amanda and co are stopping over in NY, I hope they go on David Letterman or something. We get David Letterman here and I have for a long time wanted to see someone from Stargate appear on the show...so anyways...I was just thinking that if they're in NY then maybe it would be cool if they were on the David Letterman show. Ok...shutting up now.
*you may have little remaining of your mind tagger but I have nothing today.*
Night all, take care and have fun!
(((Samandans)))Originally posted by rderoch View PostEvangeline Lilly is Canadian and she's been on all the talk shows. It just depends on what kind of attention the show gets. Lost is a mainstream hit. Hopefully, Sanctuary will get the attention it deserves and we'll get to see Amanda on a talk show.
Originally posted by jckfan55 View PostYes, maybe a bit better. She didn't look like herself in that first one. I mean Helen isn't an alien.
Poor AT must be so tired what with filming & then these promo/convention trips. She's obviously extremely dedicated to the show (and fans).
To be Continued

Sanctuary's E Online preview
SANCTUARY (Sci Fi)
Premieres: Oct. 3, 9 p.m.Time-Slot Competition: Deal or No Deal, Don't Forget the Lyrics, The Ex List, SupernannyCast: Amanda Tapping, Christopher Heyerdahl Status: No one's seen the series; the webisodes premiered last year
Sci Fi's next cult-hit series may be Sanctuary, and just in time to fill the gap left by Battlestar Galactica. The Sanctuary of the title is run by a long-lived doctor by the name of Helen Magnus (Amanda Tapping), and it serves as a refuge for supernatural beings hunted by the Van Helsing types of the world. (Such persecution, man! So not cool!)
Set in a totally digital (and pretty awesome) environment, Sanctuary looks to be both unique and entertaining.
My Verdict: I'm intrigued. DVR it.Originally posted by SamJackShipLover View PostThat's cool!! They so deserve to be a big hit.Originally posted by LilFerret View PostI absolutely ADORE these last ones!
I have a feeling Sanctuary is going to be big.
Amanda mostly deserves some big success, and I'm not being biased, but after all she's done for the show, leaving Atlantis, dying her hair, all the promotional trips and cons she been to, even substantially cutting back her salaries for the benefit of the show . I honestly can't think of anyone who deserves the best out of whatever the show can bring her.
And we're dedicated to her. Well, some of us.

Oh, and to anyone in the Gulf coast, I hope you're all staying safe and surviving Gustav. Here in North Carolina we're keeping an eye on Hanna, which looks like it may hit us next weekend.

Tracy that's really cool!
Julia(samcarterrules)Spoiler:tomorrow I got to go back to school . I don't want to, I want to stay here, and talk with you guys, and talk about Amanda . But it's just for 2 months, and it's just 1 class, but it's co-cp. I'm glad to hear you're doing well Julia, and I hope everything stays well .
Originally posted by EvenstarSRV View Post'm glad your first day went so well! I still remember getting my schedule mixed up freshman year and going to the wrong class my first day.
LOL. I love how those smilies make it seem like Helen is shooting Sam in the head.

OT
Spoiler:I went back to school as well today, LOL.
It's a totally different atmosphere though. I we had about 5 kiwi members of staff last term and they all left for various reasons, leaving us kiwi-less. Thankfully, for various reasons, one of our kiwis is back doing supply work for a couple of weeks and the other will be doing a training and development role, so I'll get to see them. I love my kiwis!
We've got loads of new members of staff now, including two Canadians, both from Ontario. Though one of them, his parents are Quebecois so we were chatting all day in French, much to the amusement of various people.
We did team building games, had curriculum area meetings (always fun because I'm the head of department and I sorta go "Hhhhmmmm, don't fancy a meeting today! Go have fun!") and had a staff breakfast. I arrived at work at 7.25am and left at about 5.10pm, and got LOADS done.
However, I'm still not ready for my kiddies to start back tomorrow. Le sigh. I've got a lovely form class this year. An absolutely delightful bunch that are known throughout the school as "The Geekiest Class in the History of Ever". After a few getting to know you games, I discovered that "Geeky" is another word for kids who love Star Trek, Stargate, World of Warcraft and watched the original Sanctuary webisodes. I get on very well with my new class. Especially when I let them put up a poster of Amanda Tapping. Apparently I'm the coolest teacher ever (like I'm gonna complain, LOL).
I've got tonnes of work to do in the morning before they arrive, so I figure I'll head to bed shortly and get up at about 5ish. Maybe earlier.
Sigh. The joys of teaching!Yepp, it's blank down here.

I watched "Between Two Fires" this weekend for the Team thread discussion.
I know we've hashed & re-hashed episodes here, but we're always getting new people, so I thought I'd re-post my comment from there & see what you think:
When S/T/N arrive at Narim's house:
S: Narim, is that my voice?
N: I'm sorry. I was hoping you wouldn't notice.
Sam/AT's reaction is priceless. And then when they're using the computer & it's on voice interface:
S: Ok, how do we shut that off?
I love her expression.
I think Sam's flattered, amused and slightly creeped out by it. I think Narim may think of the computer voice kind of like we'd look at a photo of someone we're infatuated with. I think he never thought Sam would hear it & maybe never thought he'd see Sam again, so why not have her voice to listen to? and as resurg points out, AT does have a nice voice.

And I couldn't help but think about that when I saw Garwin at Gatecon. LOLJenni
