I am a leaf on the wind. ~ Serenity (2005)
Sometimes you just have to go where the wind takes you, and live life hour by hour.
That's Auntie Nettie's advice for the day.

Aliens Among Us
Yesterday's entry about Spock got me to thinking. There are so many sci-fi shows, books, and movies, not to mention mythologies about sightings, pictographs around the world with unexplained depictions of unknown creatures, that I have to begin to believe that aliens have been, and are, actually among us.
I think they navigate here through the solar system, using stars and planets as their guides.
They disguise their spaceships in different forms, but always with the saucer format and those ominous glowing balls of light.
They take over strange creatures as their hosts. (That's the only explanation for this photo that I can think of, not to mention the pitch of this chick's voice and many mannerisms!) 
When the host passes on, the only evidence of their true natures is craftily hidden away on stone markers for future generations to puzzle over.

So I took these in the Nathan Hale Cemetery in Coventry, CT ... Doesn't mean that some of our colonial fore parents weren't aliens. Just saying.

If I had a million £ ...
I'd be on a Virgin Atlantic flight to London faster than you can say Cheerio!
Why?
Imagine one sci-fi nerd/librarian/former English Major/Shakespeare lover, finding out that:
the Tenth Doctor aka David Tennant
and
RIGHT NOW at the RSC!
This better hop the pond to the Great White Way.
I'm just saying.
This AngloSciFi-le demands it!
Plus, there's this!
My favorite painting AND David? Raptures!

RIP - George Hammond/Don S. Davis
Just got some very sad SciFi news. I feel like I've lost a grandpa. (Look, if you spent as much time watching SciFi and Stargate as I have over the years, you'd be upset too.)Stargate's Davis Is Dead
Gateworld reported that Don S. Davis, who played Maj. Gen. George Hammond on SCI FI Channel's Stargate SG-1 for seven seasons, died June 29 after suffering a heart attack. He was 65.
Citing Davis' wife, Ruby Fleming-Davis, the site reported that a family memorial will take place in a few weeks during which Davis' ashes will be scattered in the ocean; fans were asked to make memorial donations to the American Heart Association.
Davis left the regular cast of SG-1 in 2003 because of a medical condition that restricted his workload, but he made several guest appearances on the show and its spinoff, Stargate Atlantis.
A native of Missouri, Davis had a 26-year career that included many roles on TV series, notably Maj. Garland Briggs on Twin Peaks. He met SG-1 co-star Richard Dean Anderson on the set of MacGyver, on which he worked as a stunt double for actor Dana Elcar. *
Davis' final Stargate appearance is in Stargate: Continuum, the upcoming straight-to-DVD movie. He will also appear in the films Vipers, Woodshop and Far Cry.
*Which explains why I always thought that it was strange that he looked like Pete from MacGyver.
