So I guess the Scifi Channel is starting new Stargate episodes of both flavors July 14th? I like Atlantis, I've watched all the old episodes of it, but I just can't bring myself to even try catching up on SG-1. Anyone got particular recommendations to offer, with an eye to (a) things that will clue me in for season 10/wtf was going on in season 9 and (b) things that are hilarious/awesome? I have a long list of episodes from a few friends which I will edit in to this if I ever find it again (ah, total lack of organizational skills, my eternal nemesis). What I've seen so far is most of season 9 and, uh, that one with the time loop and the froot loops.

Life is pretty quiet. Work's going decently -- I finally have some actual direction to go with, so I feel a little less like I'm just vaguely flailing at the code and hoping things magically happen on their own. Headed home this weekend for an aunt's wedding. Have started playing (and am enjoying) Civilization 4. Am only pining a little. beat_the_beaver and I have eeevil plots for painting murals. And I have a whole pile of books to get through as well as the time to do it in -- the world is a pretty awesome place.

And (meme! meme!) I'm sure you'll all be hugely surprised to hear my speech is totally Massachusetts-biased. 3% on this thing... heh.

We're constructing a celtic knot/firebreathing snake -- the knot's structure looks like this (http://web.mit.edu/gangelo/Public/Mural.jpg) (but that picture doesn't have the firebreathing in it). It's going to be awesome.
