Yay, my 2,000th post. Ironically, it's also exacty three months since my first post (I joined months before I actually posted anything).
Thanks for that - I had a feeling she was right handed but I just thought it was odd that she wore her watch on her right hand instead of her left.
Congrats on your 2000th post!!! Well done!!!"Live Peace - Speak Kindness - Dwell in Possibility"

Ok...why is it that Sam seems to draw the small straw all the time??
She's got a small dingy lab.
She hasn't got a MoH - but Mitchell does????
Is she or isn't she a pilot - why is that not clear? (IMO - she is at the very least a co-pilot - is she not??)
Why is Sam not the leader of SG1?? (Or is she???)
And why are she and Jack not married with a dozen kids yet??? (Hey, what can I say I'm a shipper at heart!!)
Sam deserves better!!
Have a great day all - and happy birthday LA Doyle - again!!!!"Live Peace - Speak Kindness - Dwell in Possibility"

Thanks, and I agree with you 100%, even the part about the kids. What can I say, I'm a shipper, too! Sam absolutely does deserve better! That's because she's the best.

... What *SHOULD* have happened:
‘Ready to go, Carter?’ Jack asked.
‘Ready, sir.’
‘I want you kids to check-in in twenty-four hours.’ Jack noted.
‘Yes, sir.’ Carter clipped her P90 to her vest and rested her hands on it.
Daniel grabbed Mitchell’s vest and pulled him back. ‘You might want to stand back a bit more.’
Mitchell looked at Daniel and opened his mouth to say something when Walter announced the seventh chevron lock and the wormhole activated. The blue backwash had Mitchell staggering back a little.
‘Woah.’
‘Told you.’ Daniel said smugly.
‘They warned us in training but they never told us it would be like that.’ Mitchell said his voice filled with wonderment.
Carter smiled and looked over at Jack. ‘With your permission, sir.’
Jack nodded. ‘Have fun.’
Teal’c bowed his head and walked swiftly up the ramp and into the wormhole. Daniel followed after him. Mitchell halted at the top of the ramp and Sam stopped next to him.
‘This isn’t going to hurt is it?’ Mitchell checked sticking his gun into the event horizon and making a lazy circle.
‘Not as much as it used to.’
‘Not as much as it used to?’ Mitchell turned his head to look at her. ‘What kind of answer is tha…’ She pushed him through and followed after him.
This last scene would have been so *smartly* done if it had been an actual scene in Season 9! It has humor - and symmetry that ties back to the first episode of the entire series. It allows Carter to play the seasoned, experienced role, and allows Mitchell to be the new guy. It would have paid homage to the series' roots and would have also set the stage for embarking on a new set of adventures.
What a missed opportunity!!!!
-the preceding scene is from the end of Chapter 12 of the fanfic 'A Pond With No Fish' by Rachel500. It's an S/J AU WIP.
This is really a well-written story. I've just skimmed because I don't have time to read it in entirety but the author has used her imagination to provide some clever scenes. Go check it out.

I know that women fly helicopters in combat. A woman was honored after she was killed in the line of duty over in Iraq when her chopper went down. I think maybe that it's direct combat that they're not allowed to participate in (although I think women participate in some way based on stories I've heard).sigpic
