I work with a lady who's son was just cast as a new regular on the show for the second season (Ronon Dex).

She is pretty excited about it.

Neat! I'm a big fan of both Atlantis and Stargate SG-1.

Atlantis is Pay Per View in the Toronto area -- it seemed pretty darned expensive for a TV show.

OK Sirquack, see if you can top this... I have a cousin who was an actress (Shanda Besler) until she got married to a professional baseball player (Eric Munsen)...

OH YEAH? I've sung the National Anthem on national television; had breakfast with Neil Sedaka; drank with Johnny Cash (he won); ate with Glenn Frey of the Eagles; chatted with Bonnie Raitt; Interviewed Kenny Loggins and Jim Messina, The Doobie brothers, Charlie Daniels, Janis Ian, and more.

























Actually, I did. Do I win the name dropping contest?

SO far, I think Ajax is winning. My sister and I were an extra in a movie once, and while we were on screen for a good 15 seconds, you wouldn't see us.

It was in the movie Field of Dreams froma while back. At the end of the movie, there is a very long line of cars waiting to get to the field (If you build it, they will come...) and we are in the section that is where the cars are facing towards the camera (vertical on your TV).

We got nothing for it, and just had to sit there for a few hours doing nothing until it was dark enough to film a few times. Today that would have just been done on a computer.

OK, so not that big of a deal, I know...

This is kind of fun though.

Ajax, all that and you're sill a humble man -- not that you'd get that from reading your posts. How do you do it?

Jack is saving the best for last, if needed. He is actually "Tootsie".
Posted By: bigjohn Re: Anyone here watch Stargate Atlantis? - 02/18/05 09:12 PM
well, ray.. if you are jealous, i hear they are taking casting calls for the lead in 'MRS DOUBTFIRE II'. i think you would be a shoe-in!!

Why, thank you dear. That was so thoughtful of you.

Atlantis is not pay for view in Toronto. If you pay for regular Rogers digital cable it is in the Series section of Movie on Demand channel 208 which is part of the package. All the chapters are on there right now.

Atlantis does rocks. Another good one is Regenesis.

OK, that's interesting. I'm only in Toronto for a few more months then moving out to where the cable doesn't reach... (north of Bowmanville) but it might be worth getting digital for a few months anyways.

Thanks !!

Oh yeah... and my sister threw up on Geddy Lee (Rush). Does that count for anything ?

Depends what she ate beforehand.
Posted By: INANE Re: Anyone here watch Stargate Atlantis? - 02/26/05 10:03 PM
On topic...

Atlantis is a really fun show, I'd say its getting to be just as good as SG-1. They are prolly in my top5 shows right now.
Posted By: bridgman Re: Anyone here watch Stargate Atlantis? - 02/26/05 10:23 PM
Is it coming out soon on DVD or do I finally have to give in and get digital cable ? I don't even have a TV hooked up right now...
