Comment on BSG midseason blues by Bernard Doddema

Not the Starbuck thing again! I originally thought I would have a problem with her as well. In fact, I did until you get a few episodes into the series where she really shines. Then they added the backstory where it tells how she becomes the mess she is today.

Out of all the characters, I think one of my favorites is Adama. I love Lorne Greene. He was awesome in Bonanza and he did really good playing Adama for his time but it was hard to see him as a military commander of an entire battlestar and the rest of the human fleet. The current Adama, played by Edward James Almos, rocks. He’s that sort of military guy that you either love him or hate him. No-nonsense, hard but loving in a way that only he could pull off.

Being in the military man myself, I can identify more with the current version more than the other. I would have done anything to make Bill Adama say “Good Job” to me. But that’s just my opinion.

I know I am in the minority, but I liked the cheesy original series better… couldn’t ever get into this one… just couldn’t accept Starbucks as a women for example…

So far I’m just looking into it. There are some things I would like to change…for instance staying on the blog home page instead of automatically bringing up the person’s profile. I like the concept though.

Maybe I should just consider a nice author’s page.

Welcome Wiert. I just wanted to let you know that I’m not ignoring you. My family and I are in the process of moving this weekend. I’ll be able to get in touch with you early next week. Again, thanks for writing. We have a lot of catching up to do.

Okay my third atempt to respond should do the trick.
I too was excited to see the family all together. After being away for almost 10 years in the military we understand the importance of making the most of your time when you can get together even if it’s on special occasions. I know the kids had fun playing with their Aunt and Uncles and cousins. They kept their mallets level to their side when playing chrocette and no one went home with a bump!

It was great to see you, Kara, & the kids this past weekend. I’m glad you got to see Miss O–too bad I was stuck on stage in a bridesmaid’s dress when Kavan brought her by… :). Hope to see you all again soon.

We were able to visit with Oona on Saturday (May 3rd). It was fun playing with her although I imagine I had more fun than she did….hahaha
