@BaronDestructo I’m in…especially on the chicken pot pie loaded ones!

Loaded Chicken Nuggets? Yes/No

@LanceNielsenWD @BaronDestructo @RobertPicardo You absolutely should. Bringing @RobertPicardo’s character, Richard Woolsey, to Atlantis in S5 was brilliant, and it was wonderful to see how the character changed and grew from the one we met initially on SG-1.

@BaronDestructo @RobertPicardo just love this actor. Never seen this show though. Maybe I should give it a whirl?

Stargate Trivia - The End
Five years, 100 episodes, and it all came down to a group farewell from the balcony of the City of Atlantis, overlooking San Francisco Bay. Originally, we had planned to land Atlantis off New York but my writing partner, Paul, vehemently objected on grounds of scale. So we changed it to a west coast location. And thus ended the series although, if things had worked out differently, the trip to Earth would have just been a stop on their return journey back to the Pegasus Galaxy. Oh, what fun we’d planned. Well, more than planned. We’d actually written a script, Stargate: Extinction. A script that, sadly, was never produced.
After five seasons, Atlantis had come to an end but, unlike SG-1, it lacked a true sense of finality. I mean, sure, that last shot of our heroes, all together, finally back on Earth worked as a series ender but that was never the intent. By the time we got word of the cancelation, the finale was already in prep. Still, I had no doubt we’d be given the opportunity to truly wrap things up with a movie that would return our heroes to Pegasus and, like the SG-1 finale, suggest that they were still out there and that their adventures continued. At the time anyway.
To be honest, news of the cancellation came as a bit of shock. Up to a few days before receiving final word, various sources had informed me we WERE coming back for a sixth (and probably final) season. The story that was eventually turned into the script, Stargate: Extinction, was originally slated to be the season six two-parter opener (check out my previous post detailing our plans for the season that never was). But, of course, things changed.
As for the this final episode - while, in hindsight, there were a few things I’d have done differently (ie. introduce the idea of the wormhole drive earlier in the season given that it was it was originally conceived, not as a payoff in this episode, but in the “return journey” storyline) it nevertheless worked well in that it closed a chapter while opening the door to endless possibilities. That were, sadly, never pursued.
Here's a video of a run-thru of the show's final scene.

@woofknight I can remember the phone number we had in the 1960s…when the prefixes had letters in them! (Ours was PE9, for Peekskill.) Passwords are, indeed, another story!😂

@BaronDestructo Big nope on this one! I’m OK with spice and heat when it enhances what I’m eating but, for me, that means sticking to stuff at the lower end of the Scoville scale.

@sloinoh I would wager different shield - or he actually knew how to use it properly.
English

#SGA fans and @BaronDestructo: Did a rewatch of S3’s Irresponsible earlier today. I’m puzzled as to how Lucius was able to eat and drink with the personal shield on when Rodney could not. Different type of shield or…gasp!…a goof? Thoughts?

Let’s start a @MarkHamill appreciation post! Thank you Mark Hamill for all of the things you do! You’re wonderful 😊

@Wileywench1 @StevenSenski They have a GREAT online storefront at penzeys.com! Terrific products; love their trial size bags, and most items are sold in various sizes so you’re not stuck with a huge quantity of something for which you need a tablespoon for one recipe!

@BaronDestructo Longest championship droughts in their respective sports. I live in the Cleveland ‘burbs, and “Maybe next year” is definitely a motto, especially for baseball and football fans. The Cavs 2016 title was a bright spot, and the city (understandably) went wild!

@jocelyncfrye @JudiciaryDems Thank you for your advocacy. I appreciated, and was impressed by, your calm, reasoned, and fact-based response to Sen. Kennedy’s inflammatory question and assertions.

Thank you to the @JudiciaryDems for allowing me to testify this afternoon! The right to travel must be protected to ensure that all people can access essential care whenever they need it.

@usnavyband Fair winds and following seas to Capt. Collins as he begins this next chapter in his book of life. It was a joy to watch him conducting, and he will be missed.

@BaronDestructo I’d try it, but wish they’d opted for the cherry flavored Slurpee. (The article suggests its author(s) wondered why cherry wasn’t chosen, as it’s more popular than the blue raspberry. Alas, I didn’t see an answer to that.)
