annundrielWhy are people being loud? QUIET HOURS. FINALS WEEK. SHEESH.
Finished the first half of BSG's second season. Wasn't planning on it, but decided that things weren't that pressing for tomorrow. Ten episodes left and I'll be caught up with the show.
Creepy, icky Lt. Thorne was Fred on Nero Wolfe. It was bizarre seeing him be so awful when Fred was slightly bumbling. Also, Lorne from SGA is supposed to be in the next ep.
Anyway. I'm going to take the mini home with me so I can force it on my parents. While I'm home for break we're supposed to go see V for Vendetta. I kind of want to talk Tom into going to see The Hills Have Eyes with me. I know, I know. It's not my usual thing, but damn if I'm not curious having now seen the original and talked to Kasey about it.
I'm also going to sit Mom down and make her watch "Grace Under Pressure." Because I can't keep going on and on about that episode and not have her know what I'm talking about. We did talk after she watched SGA's finale. The first thing she said was, "When are they just going to make it the John and Rodney show? I mean, they've already picked up each other's mannerisms!" Heh. Then we briefly talked about the 'To Be Continued.' Or rather we talked about the circumstances leading up to the 'To Be Continued.' Mom's of the "Oh, Rodney, Rodney, Rodney" camp because he really screwed up. I'm of the "Oh, Rodney, Rodney, Rodney" camp because he really screwed up but it's not entirely his fault. He couldn't have gotten to where he did if Elizabeth hadn't first okay-d the whole thing. And John backed her up. And Carson and Zelenka helped, too.
I do need to re-watch it. There's some stuff I can't remember particularly clearly.
But my point is, it's not just Rodney's fault. Kind of like, honestly, the events of "Trinity" weren't entirely Rodney's fault. Elizabeth still could have said no, John could have pulled him back sooner, etc.
Everybody on Atlantis screwed up. And maybe Rodney did screw up most of all, but there's a part of me that feels that distinction should fall to Elizabeth.
Let's just say that they shouldn't have tried to play God. That's never a good idea.
It has recently occurred to me that I don't have to take any more philosophy. HA. Take *that* Jesuit education!
