Stargates and State Parks

The Stargate television series are back with new episodes. Stargate SG-1 impressed me at times and depressed me at others. The overall story of Adria is interesting but there were two occurrences in this episode that were not original at all. Yes, I did say that there was nothing original anymore any way but these two things could have been avoided. I refer to Daniel being presumed dead then (Surprise, surprise.) being found alive on the enemy vessel. How many times has this happened over the ten years? Many many times and it's always Daniel or Jack... Also, I believe this was the third, or even fourth, time Teal'c was tortured. C'mon people!

Atlantis, on the other hand, rocked! My one complaint is that they consistently find cool Ancient ships and then trash them before they can become a significant part of the show. Why?

Yesterday, after church where I was once again placed in charge of our summer church school program, my parents and I went down to the shore and Harkness Memorial State Park. The shady spot where we placed our blanket was so much better than the oven that is our house. There was No Swimming signs everywhere but, not surprisingly, people were swimming anyway. Whether it was rebellion or illiteracy, the world may never know...

I heart Harkness!! And yes I have totally disregarded the signs (must have been illiteracy...)and gone swimming but while I was out there, this foreign dude walked right off the shallow part into the abyss and I guess he couldn't swim and he totally almost drowned. This young dad charged after him after him and pulled him in--it was a very near thing!!!

Nah, from what I know of you, rebellion is more likely! :)
