Ha! How many pancake drops? *shakes head*

A couple of things have happened since yesterday's post ...

1. I'm on vacation as of 5:00 this evening! Well, I'm on vacation until Wednesday, when I work a baffling 16 hour day and then get to take Thursday off. It'll work out just fine, I'm sure.
2. There was a chemical spill on the freeway right by my house yesterday. Cole's daycare center called to tell me that they weren't being told to evacuate yet but if they did have to I'd have to come and pick him up. Everything worked out just fine, you'll be happy to know. No evacuations required.
3. I finished The X-Files season 3 last night. And then I promptly fell asleep at 9:00. Which is pretty much as soon as the last episode ended.
4. My two weeks of vacation will be the first two weeks of November. That means that I'll have Halloween day off. Halloween's my favorite holiday. I still have another 7 days to schedule somewhere. Let me break it down ... I'm taking off August 22 and 23 (for Cole's first day of school), September 16 (which is not a personal day since the bank is MAKING me go to Lake Tahoe. Again.) and 19 (because I'll need to recoup from Lake Tahoe), October 31 - November 11 (plus the Saturdays and Sundays surrounding those two weeks) and SEVEN more days somewhere. Seven! Not to mention the random bank holidays between now and the end of the year. Oh, and Christmas Day is on Sunday this year. That means that we'll be closed the day after. Yes! Rock on!
5. Sci-Fi Friday Night! Yes!

I'm out!

wow that's some vacation time coming! good for you. but, and i don't have a calendar in front of me (ok fine, i'm too lazy to check), what about your bday? or does it fall on a weekend?

[soulswallo.livejournal.com]

It's on a monday. I might take that day off also. You know, since I have seven more days to fit in some time before the end of the year.

[ebarnon.livejournal.com]

if you wanna a suggestion, take your bday off (1 day). that's a no-brainer. can you picture yourself working on that special day? one word, craaaanky. and then the day after thanksgiving (1 day). then, if possible, the rest of the week of xmas(4 days). see? for me, those would be IDEAL days off. damnit, i need some vacation time.

[soulswallo.livejournal.com]

I probably can't take the day after Thanksgiving, but those others are more than likely do-able.

[ebarnon.livejournal.com]

and i'm a bit pissed that xmas is on sunday this year. i'm tempted to take that monday off.

pancake drops!!!! ahahahaha

[soulswallo.livejournal.com]

I was happy that Christmas was on Sunday. Three day weekend for me! Two weekends in a row since that means that New Years in on a Sunday also!

[ebarnon.livejournal.com]

ok enough of all my trivial shit.

legend has it, the way to tell if you're a cylon is they are not able to wink. sure they can blink, but try as they might, no winking.


can you wink kelly?

[soulswallo.livejournal.com]

Oh, damn. I... I... I mean, yes. Yes. Of course I can blink wink. Wink. Yes. I can totally wink. And it doesn't at all look lame or like I'm blinking. Really. I am not a Cylon.

[ebarnon.livejournal.com]

[soulswallo.livejournal.com]

Damn you.

Lawless Open To Cameo Roles

Lucy Lawless told SCI FI Wire that she'd welcome future cameo roles in the upcoming Evil Dead movies or in the third Spider-Man movie, which are being produced by her husband, Rob Tapert, and family friend Sam Raimi, but added that nothing's set yet. The former Xena: Warrior Princess star made a brief cameo appearance in the first Spider-Man film as a punk rocker in a scene shot in New York City. "That was fun," Lawless said in an interview. "I threw on a wig and did it. Who knows if I'll get a chance to do it again?"

Spider-Man director Raimi was one of the executive producers of Xena during its six seasons, as was Lawless' husband, Tapert, who is still Raimi's business partner.

Tapert and Raimi are also producing two upcoming Evil Dead movies, based on their original 1970s films. "Well, who wouldn't want to be in an Evil Dead movie?" Lawless said. Even as a zombie, Lawless said she would make an appearance, but she added that she's not pushing her husband or lobbying her friend Raimi for a role.

"It doesn't even occur to me [to] think like that," Lawless said. "It's more like, 'What are we having for dinner, and where are the kids?' Also, people think that it's so easy, that you should be able to lean on your family and friends for jobs or whatever. Or they should be making things for you, and it just doesn't work like that. And to ensure the health of your relationship, you just stay away from that kind of thinking."

You know, I really, really like Lucy Lawless as a person. And not just because she has a cool name.

[ebarnon.livejournal.com]

It was a bad pancake, Ripley. It was a bad pancake.

[soulswallo.livejournal.com]

Bad pancake? These people are dead, Burke!
(I'm thinking ... wicked case of food poisoning!)

[ebarnon.livejournal.com]

that would add a whole new direction to that movie! ahahaha straight to the porto-potty.

[soulswallo.livejournal.com]

Ewwww.

[ebarnon.livejournal.com]

ok i know this might not be a movie that's your type of genre lately, but i watched 'sin city' last night. THAT is what a comic book turned to a movie should be. so drop what you're doing, walk, no RUN and go get it! if you haven't already. i want to watch it again. so give me a wink if you wanna. if not, it's all good. i'll just wait here for your review....waiting....waiting...so, how bout that BSG last night? still waiting.

[soulswallo.livejournal.com]

I was going to buy Sin City this weekend. If I can make it to Best Buy. Or I could buy it on Monday because I HAVE A FEW DAYS OFF!

[ebarnon.livejournal.com]

because I HAVE A FEW DAYS OFF!


i'm going to copy you right now, damn you, cylon kelly.

[soulswallo.livejournal.com]

My program does not allow for unauthorized copying.

[ebarnon.livejournal.com]

and the penalty for unauthorized copying? forcing me to sit through 'spanglish'? (ahahahah before you call me a dickwad, i was just kidding!!!)

[ebarnon.livejournal.com]

ok maybe it didn't register at first, but why the hell are you working a 16 hour day wed?

[soulswallo.livejournal.com]

We're having new computers installed after the branch closes and I and one other person have to be there. I might *might* need to borrow your laptop so I can watch a movie or two. Or I just might learn how to play poker. heh.

[ebarnon.livejournal.com]

oh no prob. just let me know ahead of time if you want it so i can charge it. hey, you could kill some quality season 4 of x-files while you guys are there!

NEWPORT BEACH, California (Reuters) - A former child actor already facing trial for hijacking a yacht and throwing the owners overboard, bound to the anchor, has been charged in a second murder, prosecutors said on Friday.

Skylar James Deleon, 26, who once appeared in the "Power Rangers" TV series, was accused in the second case of luring a man to Mexico in December of 2003, slitting his throat and leaving the body by the side of a road.


(go, go, uh-oh power rangers!)

[soulswallo.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I read that. Killing a couple by tying them to an anchor and dropping them overboard - see, now that's just sick. Sick! Slitting comeone's throat seems so much more civilized.

[ebarnon.livejournal.com]

see, for me, a quick garrote followed by several hand grenades would do the job. being tied to an anchor?? who, other than pirates, does that anymore?

(while i wait also for your thoughts on BSG...)

Starbuck meets up with the Prez's fleet near Kobol. Apollo's very happy to see her, and he's got a gun in his pocket. Which he quickly takes out and aims at Boomer. The Prez is ready to have Boomer spaced until Boomer claims that she can help them to find the Tomb of Athena. Meanwhile, Zarek plots to get Apollo killed, so that Zarek can be the man behind the Prez. They all go down to Kobol and find a path that should lead them to the Tomb. Elosha helpfully finds a trap and gets herself blown up real good, and then the Centurions start shooting. During the fire-fight, Boomer seems to make a break for it, and Apollo chases after her. It turns out Boomer's just trying to grab a dead soldier's gun so that she can take out the last Centurion. Overachiever. They all have a hearty chuckle over the misunderstanding, wave goodbye to Elosha's corpse, and set out for the Tomb. Back on Galactica, Adama picks out a sucky new CAG, tries to cheer himself up by holding a press conference, and generally mopes around for a while. Eventually he shares his feelings with Dualla. Dualla tells Adama that he's broken his promise to take them all to Earth. In the end, Adama declares that he's putting the band back together. No, wait: fleet. Putting the fleet back together.

But they made no mention of the way that Lee loooooooves Kara. Apollo loooooooves Starbuck. Apollo loooooooves Starbuck. Hee!

and THAT is exactly why your online fans are waiting for your detailed thoughts.
