Most common quote: "No, *that*'s not the sign." One of my favourite comedies, actually (though I usually prefer dramas). I even liked the five dumb barbarians - specially the leader whenever Gabby writes something new in her scrolls - "They headed east". Light dawns on barbarian's face as if a stroke of genius has just struck him: "We'll go East!" Aphrodite and Ares, minus their powers, were excellent. Like you, I don't usually care much for Xena-lite eps but liked this one. What I want to know is, what happened to the three naked go-go-Gabby's? Did they catch the five barbarians and settle down to a happy Bohemian life of - well, I think that's maybe best left to the imagination ;) Thelonius ========================================================= This has been a message to the chakram-refugees list.

I did hear of a UK Xenafest where a Joxerfan (yes such strange creatures do exist!) paid some ridiculous sum of money like thousands of pounds for a Joxer sword. Myself, I think it was a silly looking sword. Xena's looked kinda plain and rough, but reasonably workmanlike. Actually the propmaster said it was intended to reflect the 'forged in the heat of battle' theme. Ares' sword was distinctive, but kinda ornate. Baroque, maybe. I liked Callisto's sword - very elegant blade, square-section at the hilt end merging into the traditional tapered blade, with a slightly fancy feminine butt-end to the hilt. Of the 'generic' swords, the winged Amazons were the most distinctive, but the neat little Mark 2 Amazons with the single-edged blade were better balanced. The natural place to grip a winged Amazon so as to balance it was right forward with one's thumb and forefinger wrapped across the winged crosspiece. Not a good place to hold a sword in battle. The wear on the paint on one of the swords I've seen suggests that's where the stunties gripped them. cr ========================================================= This has been a message to the chakram-refugees list.

So for the first time I was thinking I'd actually be able to get to a Cherry Hill con, then I hear that ROC is going to be there, which makes me jump up and down for silly joy, THEN I find out the date has been changed to a weekend where I already have plans to be out of town!!!

Everyone is >fine. congraters to all. but damn! it's spooky. although i think about the show and the characters rather often, i don't particularly think about the actors except when i'm discussing them on a list or thinking about their work on the show. all day yesterday i was thinking about lucy and rob. i kept having very clear. . .i dunno. . .images i guess. more proprioceptive than visual, of lucy in labor and rob angsting about. i was thinking about all the women who give birth under various circumstances: at home, in hospitals, in forests and war zones and so forth. the images were so strong, i nearly posted to ask sharon if lucy were okay but i consider that intrusive, so i didn't. feels spooky but i guess it isn't really. i mean, she's been due and my SO works in a neonatal ICU and she'd been present during a particularly, um, well, scary crisis situation a couple of days ago on the strength of which she was worrying about lucy giving birth at home. i suppose it just all came together in my head. glad all is well. rob's probably exhausted. i wonder if he can manage to stay out of the director/producer role during a delivery. md ========================================================= This has been a message to the chakram-refugees list.
