I counted 41.

Wow. Well, I can say I've been to see Amanda at one con. Will have to try to double that in the future

Wow! To the fact that she's done that many and to the fact that you counted. ;-)

Wow, that's a lot of autographs and photo ops!

Yep! And a lot of hugs.

Do or do not, there is no try!
Although I can see how doubling that would require some effort. ;-)

I loved how AT said it would be easy for all the adulation to go to your head & she tries not to let it. She's an amazingly solid individual.

Sam: Sir, why are we stopping?

O'Neill: Hockey, Carter. Hockey.

Sam: Sir, I don't think that's a good enough reason to let these people be taken over by the Goa'uld.

O'Neill: Yeah, I know Carter. It's just that I don't trust people who don't like hockey.

Carter: Sir, they've never even heard of hockey.

O'Neill: There is that. We could always teach them. Daniel's always talking about "cultural exchanges..."

Very excited! One of my dear friends, the lovely and talented Kari Sperring, has made the Honor List of this year's Tiptree Award. She didn't win, but it's still a fabulous, fabulous thing.

For those not in the know, the Tiptree webpage is here -http://tiptree.org/
Alice B. Sheldon, a marvelous writer, wrote most of her SF under the pen name of James Tiptree, Jr., as women's writing was not as valued, rewarded, critically acclaimed and regarded as men's.

I'm so pleased for Kari, Living With Ghosts is a wonderful book (but I am biased, I read it when it was a fanfic about 20 years ago!)
And so happy that we have come a long way since Alice was writing. Still room for improvement, of course.

Heidi and I are in that video. That was recorded at the first con in Chicago. You can see us standing in line a couple of times. And our friend Jen is briefly interviewed.

Very cool!

We never should have introduced Teal'c to basketball. Now we can't leave until he finishes his March Madness brackets.

LOL! I can see Teal'c getting into the Madness. 'I believe the Tar Heels of North Carolina are superior warriors.'

Wow. Well, I can say I've been to see Amanda at one con. Will have to try to double that in the future

I'm still trying to make it to my first. It should be a bit easier once I'm out of school schedule-wise, and I'm hoping AT6 will work out since I've heard such great things about the GABIT events.

And another neat video I found, a clip from the Paley center premiere of Sanctuary back in 2008: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGOuZ...eature=related

Carter: *Under her breath* 'Next it'll be curling'

[suse]

Cater: *Under her breath* 'Next it'll be curling'

Nope, he ain't Canadian. Unless those on the border states do it too...

Cater: *Under her breath* 'Next it'll be curling'

I'd wager to guess that Amanda is a fan of curling since she's Canadian, don'tcha think?

[Skydiver]

isn't it mandatory?

[NZNeep]

Eh-T said that anyone who hasn't tried curling is just pretending to be Canadian

[Mandysg1]

Yep

Not in Michigan. Not sure about Minnesota.
