Subject: Say HI to the newbie! :)
That's me, I'm a newbie -- totally! This whole internet thing has me
floored! But, for what it's worth, here I am . . .
I'm a grad student at Arkansas State, majoring in Theatre. I
found you guys via the SciFi Channel DOMINION BBoard and the UFO HOME PAGE.
I never even heard of this show till the SciFi Channel started
airing it about a year ago; and I freely admit that I originally tuned in
mainly to find out who that angelic vision was they flashed so quickly
across the screen in the commercial. And, might I add that Ed Bishop is
well worth the price of admission . . .:) Okay, so obviously my favourite
episodes are the Straker episodes -- I haven't seen them all yet, but
"Timelash" is my absoulte fav thus far -- that one blew my mind! And I
hear it caused quite a controversy when it first aired because of the
element of drug use . . . geez/ times they are a changin' . . .
Anyway, might I add something to this "liquid breathing"
discussion? I don't think it was necessarily meant to make the aliens
more alien. I mean, when it is mentioned that the alien was breathing
liquid, someone -- I think it was Alec -- said that we were experimenting
with similar ideas for Moon Base; which indicates to me that perhaps this
just points out how similar we really are . . .
And a note to Kyle: Tacky, tacky, tacky -- I about _screamed_ when
I read the subject line "Ed Straker's response to the OJ verdict", but
I'll admit, that was a cute little story ... :)
Oh, and has anyone ever come up with a reason for the purple hair??
TTFN!
