| MattH | Hiya CM |
| Elais | heyas Matt |
| MattH | Sorry I'm late - lost a filling, so it was replaced. |
| MattH | Plus my nightguard didn't fit, so they had to take another mold (which they did twice) |
| Elais | hope they did that for free |
| MattH | Yep.... |
| Elais | watching David Boreanaz's Wicked Prayer |
| MattH | That one of the Crow movies? |
| Elais | yup |
| Elais | unfortunately, it is almost a parody |
| MattH | Not that good, then... |
| Elais | no |
| Elais | you do get shirtless David B |
| MattH | Doesn't do much for me, I'm afraid. |
| Elais | and it doesn't really do it for me either |
| Elais | the movie is over thank god |
| MattH | Did you rent it? Or was it on cable? |
| Elais | David should be thankful this movie never got into the theaters |
| Elais | it just came out on dvd |
| MattH | Ah...maybe you can return it. |
| Elais | I didn't buy it |
| Elais | I rented it |
| MattH | What...you engaged in shoplifting? ;-) |
| Elais | you couldn't pay me to buy the movie |
| Elais | are you done with the dental work for the time being? |
| MattH | Kind of - I have a follow up appointment in two weeks, just to get my nightguard and to see how well the gum disease prevention program is working. |
| MattH | Kind of complicated - they gave me a whole bag of stuff today - mechanical and electric toothbrushes, two types of mouth rinse and three different kinds of toothpaste. |
| Elais | wow |
| Elais | I didn't get anything from my dentist, other than an appointment in September |
| MattH | Do you have gum disease? |
| Elais | don't think so |
| Elais | the dentist did seem to indicate I had any |
| Elais | I do use a rinse though |
| MattH | Then you wouldn't need the program. |
| MattH | Mine isn't too bad - this is just to prevent it from getting worse. |
| Elais | reading the latest D&D campaign on your website |
| Elais | is there a reason that the dates is 2004? |
| MattH | Not much happened last session. |
| MattH | It is...crud... |
| MattH | means I need to fix it. |
| Elais | it is 2005 at the top |
| Elais | but the campaign themselves are 2004 |
| MattH | Too much cutting and pasting. |
| MattH | Ok - it's fixed |
| MattH | Thanks for letting me know. |
| Elais | are the changes immediate? |
| MattH | You'd need to refresh the site. |
| Elais | ah..there we go |
| Elais | for some reason it wasn't refreshing when I was using internet explorer |
| Elais | but it is ok in firefox |
| MattH | Hmm..must be the cache settings...or the fact that IE is a piece of cr** |
| Elais | how is work? |
| MattH | Pretty good...still somewhat slow, but it is picking up. |
| Elais | still slow here |
| Elais | but it does give me a bit of time to surf the net |
| MattH | There is only so much of that that one can do... |
| Elais | we've been raiding the other departments for stuff to do |
| Elais | I spent time today cutting paper |
| MattH | Hmm...not good....if you don't have enough to do, it is possible that the higher-ups will think that there are too many of you... |
| MattH | Cuttng paper?> |
| Elais | yeah, on one of those big paper cutters |
| Elais | there is only six of us, plus the boss |
| MattH | So why were you cutting paper? |
| Elais | not much we can do about it |
| Elais | I don't know |
| Elais | one of the supervisors wanted a stack of outdated letterhead paper cut into two |
| Elais | presumbably for 'scratch' paper |
| MattH | Definitely sounds like make-work |
| Elais | she did seem to think it was useful |
| Elais | I just read the latest spoilers for Smallville |
| MattH | And? |
| MattH | I haven't kept up - although I have read a couple of spoilers for BSG. |
| Elais | it seems like in one of the scenes, Milton Fine 'merges' with the black spaceship that crashed in the finale last season |
| Elais | BSG is still good, I'm hoping to see an ep where no-one dies sometime in the future |
| MattH | I finally watched the first 3 eps for this season...it seems to be progressing slowly. |
| Elais | I wish they ramp up that 'Arrow of Apollo' thing soon |
| MattH | Yeah...that group is still on Caprica....Adama is still out of it...it just seems like a slow slog. |
| Elais | don't know whether to feel pity or hatred for Tigh |
| MattH | I'm leaning towards pity...and I am really beginning to dislike Starbuck... |
| Elais | they haven't given her much to do so far |
| MattH | I don't know - she has had a lot more to do than Apollo, for example. She is just real annoying when she does anything. |
| Elais | I wonder if they'll have the President get a miracle cure |
| MattH | Doubt it - according to the prophecies, she dies, IIRC. |
| Elais | hate to lose her, though |
| MattH | Yeah - she is an interesting character |
| Elais | Baltar would become President, then |
| MattH | Now that would be interesting - he is definitely the strangest person on the show. |
| Elais | I think Richard Hatch might be back |
| MattH | I expect so - rumor has it that the Pegasus will show up later in the season. |
| Elais | yeah, I'm a bit confused about that |
| MattH | I always felt that having it show up kind of throws the "last battlestar" thing out the window. |
| Elais | how did pegasus feature in the original? |
| MattH | Showed up towards the end of the 1st season, help fight the Cyclons...didn't really do much more than that, although the Captain was much different than Adama...I don't recall much. |
| Elais | hmmm |
| MattH | I don't recall whether it was destroyed or vanished... |
| Elais | then there are a lot of ways they could go with this on the new series |
| Elais | I'm thinking that there will be a disagreement between Pegasus and Galatica |
| MattH | Yeah...the plot is pretty different from the original |
| Elais | Pegasus wanting to find a new planet to colonize |
| MattH | There was major disagreement between the two.... |
| MattH | And I think the search for Earth was the issue. |
| Elais | I wonder if they will actually reach Earth at the end of the season? |
| MattH | Hmmm...I don't think so. The original reached earth in the second series, but then really didn't do much. |
| Elais | yeah, what can you really do once you reach Earth? |
| MattH | Lead the cylons there... |
| MattH | Could be interesting if they were to arrive, in say, 500 years from now.... |
| Elais | true |
| MattH | Or 500 years ago... |
| Elais | ouch |
| Elais | that would be baaaad |
| Elais | I think they are better off not finding Earth |
| Elais | or finding Earth and discovering that everyone there is dead |
| MattH | Or if it were longer...it could be the basis for Earth legends...about a war in the heavens |
| Elais | anyhow, the Earth stuff might be a long way off |
| MattH | Yeah, especially if ratings stay high... |
| Elais | I think they are splitting the season |
| Elais | from what I understand, half the eps will be airing next year |
| MattH | Hmmm...then I expect the Pegasus will show up at the end of the last show before next year. |
| Elais | that will be a pretty good cliffhanger |
| MattH | Yeah...but predicable. |
| Elais | but probably only to the people who saw the original BSG |
| MattH | Hmm...I keep forgetting that not many did...or it would have lasted longer |
| Elais | I think cult fans tend to forget they are cult fans *g* |
| MattH | I wasn't a big fan...there just wasn't much SF on TV back then |
| Elais | probably not |
| MattH | Buck Rogers was the competition, IIRC. |
| Elais | ah, twiki! |
| MattH | Heh...what I liked about the show was Erin Grey... |
| Elais | I liked Hawk |
| MattH | Yeah... |
| Elais | don't think I cared much for any of the guys on BSB |
| Elais | might have been too young to appreciate them though. ;) |
| Elais | BSB=BSG |
| MattH | Ok - I was wondering what show you were referring to. |
| MattH | I definitely recall that the girls were cute...but definitely 70s... |
| MattH | Grace Park is much better looking. |
| Elais | which one was she? |
| MattH | Boomer.... |
| Elais | oh, the current Boomer |
| MattH | Yep. |
| Elais | okay, 10 pm |
| MattH | Yep...time to be going.. |
| Elais | I'd better get going Matt |
| MattH | CYA next week |
| Elais | see you next week! |
