Nah I still think Kara is Daniels daughter. Sure it was never SAID but with the piano scene plus Ellen said Daniel was an artistic man......its just a matter of putting two and two together. I never thought Kara was Daniel to begin with, mainly because they reffered to Daniel as a MAN which Kara obviously is not. Kara as Daniels daughter definitly made sense. Well, the thinking behind Kara being Daniel, at least for me, was that yes, he was a MAN, but it was said that Cavil did something to Daniel. He changed him some how. So, thats why I thought that maybe Kara was Daniel. It would also have explained the whole ressurrection thing. I mean, do Cylon's half-human children resurrect? Or maybe I should say could they have? Since resurrection was gone by the end of the show. But then, there was the episode with the music and Kara's dad and it became pretty obvious that Kara was Daniel's daughter. And Ron Moore completly denies this. I mean, he even goes as far as saying they never really thought of the idea of Kara even being Daniel's daughter. I find that hard to believe. Its right there on the screen. Very strange indeed. Ya, I think everyone expected her to be resurrected. I guess thats why they didn't do it. They wanted to suprise everyone. I know I was definitly suprised. Of course, I was pretty suprised about Head Baltar and Head Six turning up and being Angels too. I liked it though. I think the whole angel thing fits well into the Adam/Eve aspect of the show and the ending on the pre-society Earth. And its a Sci-Fi show on the Sci-fi channel so they can get away with all of this. I agree that Heroes is just not the same. I've been watching it and while I did like the most recent episode (written by Pushing Daises Bryan Fuller), overall, I'm not enjoying the show as much as did with Season 1. Now, Lost, I really love that show. Possibly as much as I love Battlestar. Well, at least almost as much. The writers are just doing a GREAT job with the show this season. Its so written, acted, etc. Lost is a great show. I'm also watching: House (good show), 24 (better this season), Medium (always good), Reaper (funny), Fringe (wish it was back already), Life on Mars (ABC is so stupid), Supernatural (getting a bit too dark lately), CSI (the orignal, off and on), Terminator (last episode was really good), Dollhouse (could be better), Numbers (not their best season), and Kings (excellent show so far). I'm a TV bug. lol. Still, out of the list, I think Battlestar was the best of the shows. Then, Lost, Fringe, Life on Mars, Terminator, Supernatural. Now Kings is an excellent show too. Its only had TWO episodes, so I'm not going to put it on the best list yet, but it has a lot of potential. I know NBC will cancel it though... Anyway, I prob watch too TV. I need to read more. Especially my college work. lol. Though, my own hobby reading has pretty much disappeared expect for the occasional comic book (Spiderman, Spiderman). Definitly need to read more... Well, April is almost here! Maybe I'll hear something back from one of those places that I submitted my work (the library contest or at least the college magazine). Doubtful I know, but we'll see.

Good lord Maggie, where are you moving to? That is an expensiive move indeed. As long as the move is over 200 miles, they charge interstate fees. I cant hire local billy bobs to drag me from point A to point B, so I have to hire interstate movers. Mayflower, Beacons, and the like are all over 4k. Hiring friends to come help only nets me broken shit. I was so upset when we moved here. I had broken lamps, desk legs busted off, the leg of my recliner couch was twisted, the big screen TV had a chunk out of the cabinet, and I had a box of expensive broken dishes. It would cost more to repair the busted stuff, than to just hire proper movers. The ABF folks only charge $1435 for 12 feet of room, then $15 for each additional foot. There is a minimum charge of $1400 for the move. Since I have MS, and we dont know anyone trust worthy on this end to help us, we will have to hire someone to come help us pack the truck. That is $500 on this end, and $500 to unpack it if we want at the other end. They wrap, dismantle, and fully protect your stuff, not just grab and haul. They are licensed and insured. We are moving from the back woods of NH to connecticut, or southern/eastern connecticut. not many choices, and I dont trust these rednecks as far as I can throw them. I HATE MOVING !!!

DF is correct. Cavel was mentioned to somehow Alter Daniel's body or DNA or something to upset Ellen. Thats why we thought that was Daniel.
The other reason it doesnt make sense, if Kara is an Angel, why was she having visions of her father sitting next to her? And how did she know the song that woke the other 4 Cylons?
I just hate how they ended her story LOL.

Ok, I admit. What Cavel said about Daniels changed DNA is one thing I do not remember being said. Interesting.
EDIT>> Ok so here is a theory. If Daniel is not Kara's dad and Kara is Daniel....then the man at the piano was also Daniel. They were both Daniel. What I mean is maybe the man at the piano was Kara's old self trying to reach out to her. Like a memory or something.
Heh, they really should have finished off her story line better. I'm thinking too deeply into this now. XD

But then the problem is the Ron Moore (is that hisname?) said that he never intended for Kara to be Daniel. In fact, he never intended to do anything With Daniel.
So why the hell did he even bring it up? Why bring up a 13th cylon if you are not going to do anything about him?

Indeed. Actually after I posted that I imediatly dismissed that theory. If they are both Daniel then why would it be suggesting that man was her father. You can't be your own dad.
Its strange. Such an amazing show, had a great final episode...but it left one detail unexplained. And its bothering a lot of people. Even my cousin (the one who got me into the show) sent me a message on Facebook pretty much saying "wtf?!"
So my day. I had a decent day today but I got freaking tired as hell during the last hour of my shift. I find whenever I eat lunch at Quizno's (which I did today) I get super fatigued. Those assholes must be lacing their meats with sleepy stuff. XD

SNOW?! Whoa. There are rumors about snow around here....hope not! LOL. Not that I'm doing anything today... Just played some Animal Crossing, wrote a brand new story in DF2506 Presents (A Stop Motion Week, staring Dejibo and Kikaro), and read some of Fried Green Tomatoes. Tomorrow I plan to...do nothing. Well, maybe study. lol. Oh and Animal Crossing. Always Animal Crossing. DF2506

Oh my gods, I love snow. I'm not being sarcastic either. I could live with snow and winter all year long. Even most Canadians think I am crazy when they hear me say that. I just really like winter and snow.....a lot! It snowed yesterday. I loved it. Except for one thing. I took a nasty spill on my way to work yesterday. There was a sheet of ice on ahte sidewalk and it was covered with snow so I didn't see it. When I stepped on it I slipped an fell. It hurt. But at the time I felt like I COULD have tried and maintained my balance. But I have an old knee injury from years ago. If I would have tried to maintain balance I would have torn that ligament in the knee and I would have hurt myself even more. SO I felt it was better to just roll with the fall and slightly hurt my elbow. Atleast I am still able to walk. lol

Well its still snowing like crazy. We are up to about 6 inches now.
I cant believe this. I havnt seen it do this in years seriously. We get flakes here and there and maybe a small amount of the ground covered.
This is so fucking pretty. Im stuck at work. I did make it out for lunch to pick up some lunch for a few people here in the office. It was pretty rough as people in Oklahoma have no clue how to drive in this. YOu slide you do NOT slam on the breaks. Seriously. When I went into the turn lane only the back of my car went. It was fun and scary as hell cause there was another car still in the other lane and they were not stopping. I finally got my self straightened out and even made my turn.
Where the hell did I learn to drive so well on this crap? Since ive been driving we have had maybe one snow storm. Crazy.

Braking on ice is a definate no-no. Its common sence. I don't even drive and I know that. If you lose control all you have to do is take your foot of the gas and steer through it. I may not drive but I did forklift work a few years back and I had to deal with slippery conditions. The same holds true when driving on the roads.

Well its melting. Today the high is 60 degrees. I swear our weather is retarded.
Driving in was a nightmare. the roads were not slick, only a few spots here and there. But the roads were wet, and the sun was so freaking bright it made the roads so reflective. I couldnt see a damn thing.
Ugh I hate the sun.

We got snow last night, but its starting to melt. Still a bit of snow on the ground, not much. Snow in Spring is just so...odd. lol. Not doing much today. Played a lot of Animal Crossing. Also, putting off my big writing assignment for Nonfiction too. lol. Boy, can't wait till May gets here! Not only will that be the last month of this semster, but also: the new Star Trek will be out!

Ive been offered two graphic design commissions. One is for a DJ. He wants a logo, and another is for a band called Salsa Rhythm Project. They want a new poster/logo.
I got these a while ago but things have been so hectic I had no time to work on them. I finally finished the initial designs( I wish I could show but not sure the customers want that yet)
I got them scanned into the computers and managed to get teh font on the salsa band set up in photo shop. I made my own font for this project and let me tell you, Font making is a bitch.
The DJ logo is for a local dj, DJ Iso. I have the ISO in a big metallic backdrop with little robots with long arms (Think the sentinels in Matrix arms) wrapping around it building the logo. I like it.
For the Salsa band, I have the font perfect but cant decide on a background. I was thinking either a beach with some palm trees, or a silhouette of a saxophone player.

well, the house is staged, my belongings are boxed, the place is spotless, I mean surgical clean, and tomorrow is the listing day, but...we have decided to wait 2 weeks. There are many rumors here about a gaming parlor going in to the town next to us. If that is the case, it would be a HUGE boom for this place. Our house price would soar, and the amenties around here would skyrocket! it would be a huge huge bump to the isolation factor here. They are going to be voting on it. So, we are waiting to see what other houses are going up at, and what the vote will be. If they vote yes, we may just want to stay. it would be huge huge increase in property values, and lower taxes. So, here in sit in my clean, boxed out, staged house, and ...nowhere to go.
