    Ever have a Stargate Moment?

    You know, one of those moments in real life where you are suddenly and unexpectedly reminded of Stargate.

    This one happened to me and it's so obvious I don't know why it never happened before. There's a fountain in the lobby of my office building. The sun reflecting off of the water... That is too obvious. It made me smile though and that's what's important.

    Then I was watching Gilmore Girls where a couple of minor recurring characters are played by Michael and David Deluise are the groom and best man in a Renaissance wedding and I wonder if Sam knows how cute Pete would look in tights.

    What's your Stargate moment?

    (My apologies if this is already done or in the wrong spot. I'm rather new here. I've looked around for something similar and searched a bit. I think I got it right. Let me know!)

    someone once told me they were standing in the toilets at the con, and the water was blue, and they and saome friends keot flushing and saying 'look, it's an event horizon i swear!'.i guess that was their stargate moment (and when they came out of the toilet, vaitare bandera was standing there, giggling) (actually, i once bumped into amanda tapping in a bathroom, but that's a different story)

    my stargate moment...a friend of mine has a friend, who has a brother, who has never heard of stargate, but has three chilldren call jack, sam and daniel. he also has a friend who's going out with a controlling policeman no-one likes..called pete (seriously!)

      A couple weeks ago I walked into a different branch of my bank than I usually visit and had a definite stargate moment. The employee of the month plaque by the door listed "Sam Carter." The picture was of a guy, but I did one heck of a double take at the name regardless.

        I saw a Reserved Parking sign, once, and it was reserved for,... you guessed it: SG-1

        The spot was empty, but I could imagine a Volvo, a big old Ford truck or a Hummer parked there.

        A Cherokee elder sitting with his grandchildren told them,
        "In every life there is a terrible fight – a fight between two wolves.
        One is evil: he is fear, anger, envy, greed, arrogance, self-pity,
        resentment, and deceit. The other is good: joy, serenity, humility,
        confidence, generosity, truth, gentleness, and compassion."
        A child asked, "Grandfather, which wolf will win?"
        The elder looked the child in the eye. "The one you feed."

            Oh yeah, the name thing. At the front desk was a vistor name badge for a Jack O'Neill. I didn't get to see the guy but the receptionist let me have the badge at the end of the day.

              My brother in law got married in May to a girl who's maiden name is Jackson. At the wedding, I was introduced to her younger brother, Daniel!!!!! I stood speechless for a moment, and then explained why I was in such shock. He hadn't even heard of Stargate!!!!

              So now I am Daniel Jackson's sister in law!!! LOL

                Before school started, I took the gatelets to school to find out what class they were in, while looking to see who was in their classes, my oldest saw a friend Daniel on the list. When I glanced at it I saw his last name. You guessed it. Jackson. We started laughing because he knew the kid for a few years, but never knew his last name. (The gatelets are big fans. In fact, Dr. Jackson has inspired the oldest to consider going into archaeology.)



                Then there was Sunday when I was listening to an interview with a Gubernatorial candidate whose name is Mike The Mover. No Joke. He legally changed his name for his business. Anyway, they asked him what his name used to be: Michael Shanks.

                  Oh wow! I saw that last night! I was talking to my friend and just yelled out "PETE!" it kinda confuzzled her, but it was fun.

                  Hmmm... I have tons of Stargate moments, I just can't think of any right now.

                    Now that is really funny. Of course It would only be funny to us stargate fans...other people will think otherwise.

                      Oh that reminds me of something!

                      I've a penpal in Australia for the last 10 years, and she got married to her childhood sweetheart a couple years back. And i didn't it me one day until i saw her last e-mail and signed it "Krissy Jackson." Then it hit me her husband's name is Daniel Jackson! The other funny thing is that he's and actor.

                        OH! I thought of one (kinda)! Last year I was introduced to someone named "Jack" I didn't think anything of it at the time since Jack is a somewhat common name or nickname. Then, they started calling him "MacGyver" (I don't know why, they haven't heard of Stargate). Of course that's when I started on "YEAH! Jack is MacGyver, but Jack too and with a Stargate!" and basically just confused them all.

                          my stargate-obsessed friend and i were on the train with some other friends, and we were talking about something, i don't remember what, except i said "that's evil" or something, because that's what i always say to something i don't like. so anyway, then my friend was like, "daniel, go to your happy place." and we both start cracking up and these poor other people are so confused. it was funny.
