Bad day? Check out this video, posted at the BBC and probably elsewhere, of an overly affectionate cat climbing up a policeman issuing a traffic summons! http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/8366
I just love this comic. Snerched from http://www.gocomics.com/reynoldsunwrappe
Argh, must turn off TV. Moonlight marathon running. I'm thinking I should just fnd a good deal and buy the DVD set, thus avoiding the pretty horrendous ads on the Chiller Channel (however, I do thank them for doing vampire week, cuz Forever Knight will also be airing!)
and I need to begin culling all the Stargate Atlantis stories I've bookmarked and want to read, and the Big Bang stories are done. OMG, I need a two month vacation to handle all this.

Love in a Wormhole: SG-1/Atlantis Convention
Excerpt from this 11/12/2009 article, which has a nice picture of Joe Flanigan in it...
An audience of predominantly middle aged women gathered the weekend of Nov. 6-8 at the Los Angeles Marriott at LAX for Creation Entertainment’s Official Stargate SG-1/Atlantis Convention for a chance to melt at the sight of the Beatles of Stargate — hotties Michael Shanks, Joe Flanigan, Ben Browder, and perhaps the Ringo of the group, Paul McGillion.

Hee, it was a fun article to read, and also shows that conventions are NOT just teenagers (I think that may be reserved for Twilight conventions).

CW to air 2-hour Justice Society-themed SMALLVILLE movie
Excerpt: Entertainment Weekly has learned that the CW are planning to air the upcoming Justice Society-heavy Smallville two-parter (“Society” and “Legends) as a two hour movie event on January 29th 2010. Penned by comic bookwriter Geoff Johns, the television movie will feature the arrival of Justice Society members Hawkman (Michael Shanks), Doctor Fate (Brent Stait), Stargirl (Britt Irvin), and the return of Phil Morris as Martian Manhunter. The storyline apparently involves Clark crossing paths with the Justice Society characters, who have come out of retirement to meet up with an old foe.

and.... got an email from Creation. David Hewlett will be doing the April 2010 Vancouver Stargate con in Vancouver. Ah, to dream. He's there, Jason, Joe and more....(including Brian J. Smith of SGU, whom I honestly wouldn't mind seeing). Gold tickets are $579. Heck, it's the airfare, the hotel, etc. and photo ops that would kill me. I need a new car.... Drat, wish they'd do a con like that on the EAST coast.
And guess I'll be watching SMALLVILLE again. Haven't watched it in years...
A fan made a video from Stargate Atlantis’ “Vegas” episode using Johnny Cash’s ‘Solitary Man’ song. I like :)
Just a couple things... an excellent article/opinion piece on the true cost of war...

And Damian Kindler posted this link on his twitter today. Someone gathered together reunion videos, of veterans coming home and being greeted by their pets. Very heartwarming. I never knew a dog's tail could wag that fast!

I'm a happy camper, well, come February, that is...
Meanwhile, had a nice 'Indian summer' day today, which meant I painted two outside doors so now at least they'll look decent through the winter. Ack, darn, ,should have done something on the cellar door. Oh, wait, maybe tomorrow. No, darn. have to work. *headdesk* Did get a lot of leaves raked and afterwards, immediately took shower, and there, spinning in the water - deer tick! - evil purveyor of Lyme Disease! Down the drain it went. Die die die....
This is just slmply a stunning music video. I'd given up on MTV and VH1 many years ago, since they rarely show music videos, and well, I'll take a peek at online ones on recommendations, and this one.... B&W, visually stunning, I like the song, the music, etc.

Article at http://simplenvrmt.com/2009/11/03/land-oWell, the weather forecast was possibly rain, which of course dampens the trick or treaters running around. We average around 20-30, which is what I think we got this year.
But anyway, here are the photos of the front porch and how I decked it out this year... 
The front door, with big plastic ghost display on it., and a little skeleton (you can see his legs at the top).
I should be reading fan fiction, but I fell behind, and then, just needed a break. So, I've been (hopefully) bookmarking all the whumpy Stargate Atlantis fan fiction, and instead, have been using the local library.
( More on books and television.... )
Snippet from article today:
David Hewlett has been cast in The Whistleblower, an independent film starring Rachel Weisz...
The independent film begins shooting next week in Romania, and tells the story of a Nebraska police officer who outed the U.N. for covering up a sex trafficking scandal while serving as a peacekeeper in post-war Bosnia. The movie is based on a true story.
Hewlett (SGA's "Rodney McKay") plays an American U.N. peacekeeper posted in Bosnia, who is suspected of being involved in the scandal
