Daniel Jackson/Vala Mal Doran Ship/Discussion/Appreciation Thread
Goodnight all, Hope to wake up to alot of new video recommendations to check out. Had so much fun.
Oh, that was a great vid. But if I'm not wrong Briahana25 doesn't want her vids put on YT. I'm remembering reading something like that. But it was a long ago so maybe she changed her opinion now. I dunno, anyway I can give link to her homepage too. This is for Any Other Way.
Okay, well I think that I will head off to bed You might not hear from me for a couple of days...I'm going out of town. I may get on sometime tomorrow before I leave though. Night!
Speaking of random videos, is anyone out there a Sparky fan? I posted a link to 'Almost Here' a very good video for them. Anyway we got any other suggestions for fun videos?

Sparky is J/E, Spanky is R/T and Sheyla is J/T. It took me a little while to work that out too don't worry Some people say Dala but I think that we have all universally agreed on Fruitcakes. Correct me if I'm wrong
Oh no, lol, the Dala/DanDoran/Vaniel debate .... hehe
Here is a brief summary of the nameness, in true pseudo history geek fashion:
Spoiler:
From, "Fandom Hearts, a contrived history of internet fansites":
On the hottest day of the year in 1999 [possibly a lie], a small, heretical group of SGA fans on the Web 1.75 site 'Livejournal' [possibly a lie], posited the forming of so-called romantic feelings between the fictional characters then Major John Sheppard and Dr. Elizabeth Weir. These 'shippers', feeling that 'Shweir' or 'Johnabeth' were somewhat lacking in dignity, coined the phrase 'Sparky' and 'sparked' (!) debate among the successive waves of fans to flock to their banner about the origin of the name. It was, in fact, utterly random, but the reasons suggested in retrospect give insight into the mind of that strange fan, the 'shipper'. This same group of trend-setters also defined the name 'Spanky' in relation to Teyla Emmagan and Ronon Dex.
A further naming debate is the that who gravitate towards the original series, Stargate SG-1. Whilst Samantha Carter and Jack O'Neill shippers have been content with 'Sam/Jack' or SJ for almost a decade, many believe that Dr. Daniel Jackson and Vala Mal Doran should be christened 'Dala', 'DanDoran' or 'Vaniel'. As with all situations, each term carries a specific meaning. 'Vaniel', given its vampiric tendencies and acoustically unpleasant nature, is used by so-called 'anti-shippers' with vicious glee. 'Dala' and 'DanDoran' stand equally among the 'shippers' as possibilities. No final decision or referendum has been taken, with many preferring the labour-light 'DV'.
A second edition will include - Rodney McKay's citrus allergy, the epistemological meaning thereof, and the significance of jello colours in Stargate SG-1.

Wow, I was waaay off on the J/R thing... probably good thing I"m not a slasher..lol.
DanDoran, that's one I"ve never heard before. I like D/V or Fruiticakes better. lol
Kales, that was hilarious and I'm eagerly awaiting V2 which will explain the significance of jello.
THis is waaayy OT but we are on a roll so I found this as a blooper from the season one episode Solitude, this is AT speaking towards RDA, they're trying to figure out a way to power the stargate (in Antartica though they don't know it):
"What? You spent seven years on MacGyver and you can't figure this one out? We got belt buckles and shoelaces and a piece of gum. Build a Nuclear Reactor for crying out loud. You used to my MacGyver, McGadget, McGimmick... Now you're Mr. McUseless... Dear God! I'm stuck on a glacier with MacGyver!!!"
