GWC Podcast #102

Heff? You are Hugh Heffner? Oh, I am such a big fan. You know, I never thought anything would happen to me that would be worthy of writing you about but just last week I went to have a massage and I misunderstood what she meant by, “Complete body workover.”

BTW, I have a copy of Dune Messiah sitting next to me which I procured this morning.

Yup, I am Hugh Heffner. Since I’m so famous I trying to keep my identity secret. But, now the cat is out of the bag. Thank you all for ready my magazine. Let’s plan a meet up sometime at my mansion.

Solai, I was actually meaning to tell you this: In order to motivate you to keep reading through the Dune novels I will make you this promise: When you finish reading Dune Messiah (and Children of Dune too maybe?) I will change my avatar to the guy who plays Duncan in the Sci Fi channel “Children of Dune” movie.

Wow. That felt good.

Welcome back! The imposter has perished!

<sings> ding, dong, the witch is dead </dead>

You only had to click your ruby-red heels together 3 times and say “there’s no place like home”. What took you so long? :slight_smile:

I went back and read (speed reading) through this whole thread earlier. And I think this one ought be awarded a prize for the most twists and turns and awesome visuals.
I was just looking at the GWC Podcast folder, and it’s beefier than mos. Total Posts: 305; Total Views: 3,481. (Wow!). Some less lazy than me needs to make a map for me to chart the epic topic drift. Episdoe critique—>Jamie Bamber’s hair—>Pets----> etc. etc.

A cultural sidenote: I didn’t know much about the Wizard of Oz until I majored in English in college. German kids are raised with Grimm’s Fairy Tales. And they’re actually pretty grim, until Disney turned them into a kind of sham.

Which kind? :slight_smile:

Oh yeah, and my niece’s name–

Emily.

Congrats Stookie…Glim.

You should read the OZ series of books. There is some pretty twisted stuff that L. Frank Baum came up with throughout the series and in his other books. Some of his work can get as dark as Grimm’s Fairy tales. Hehe, for a real head trip you should read his take on Santa Clause.

Wouldn’t that make you an aunt? :stuck_out_tongue:

Congratulations!

I wish to say that you should do research on any pet before getting one. German Shepherds are smart but are working dogs that need more than a short walk on a cold day. Australian Shepherds are also a herding breed and are very smart but also high energy. They will keep your children together but will also chase joggers and other fast moving objects if not trained correctly. I help out at a no kill shelter and you would be amazed at why people give up dogs. Oh the dog was two strong for me. Well duh it is a Great Dane. So think about your lifestyle and go through a shelter or rescue group who can help you make the correct choice. Please, remember your new friend cat or dog will live 12-20 years if you are lucky. :slight_smile:

Since we must get back to topic. Scifi channel has Charlie Jade, Doctor Who, The Battlestar Galactica. Firefly is also on today. We Will be on topic soon. :cool:

I just noticed that there is a board for off topic discussions. What is that for???

Anyone know anything about Charlie Jade? Is it any good or another round of Sci Fi craaap? And if it is good, are they going to cancel it out from under us?

Wow, I’ve become bitter. OK, bitterer. :slight_smile:

I just noticed that there is a board for off topic discussions. What is that for???

Battlestar Galactica and the GWC Podcast, of course. :rolleyes:

I have heard that it is a fantastic but complicated show. It is not an American product and not made by Sci Fi. I think it was made a few years ago so I do not know how many shows were made. I only have heard good things about it. They do warn that you can not blink or get a snack or you will miss something important. I would give a try. Charlie Jade, Doctor Who, then BG what a night.

Yes! Wise choices are well-rewarded! G-dog was from a rescued litter, and I was lucky that my friend worked at that particular site and helped guide me to my dear boy!

Listen to Leah! She’s knows her shiz! :smiley:

Charlie Jade is supposed to ROCK! I’m dvr-ing it tonight! I figure it will at least help to distract from the yawning abyss of not BSG!

Thank the gods for GWC!! :smiley:

Drving is that a new verb? :slight_smile:

Has the SCiFI channel advertised Charlie Jade? I use my DVR most of the time so I may have missed them.
