Entertaining addendum to the whole missionary position thing: "One of the principal findings was that the classic so-called missionary position, which is so easy on earth when gravity pushes one downwards, is simply not possible [in zero gravity]."

You bring the best news stories. "Only four positions were found possible without "mechanical assistance"."

Enquiring minds want to know what the positions actually are. What a mission briefing.

Which Trek do you prefer? (I can't think of a decent question.)

I love DS9, but I still have to say TNG. TNG was my Trek. I remember when it premiered, and it was the Trek that was there through my formative nerd years.

First, I really like your icon. It's...unique.

Second, not that you're asking me, but I don't understand the question - is WHO a visionary or nutter? (Roddenberry? Jack O'Neill? Who?) Thanks!

I decided to go check her out and got sidetracked by the S/J fic...

That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!

Best. Icon. EVER!!!!

Okay....questions....

1. Do you think Sam and Jack had sex in "Beneath the Surface" as Jonah and Thera?

2. What's your opinion of Sam's ability in command situations?

3. Do you think any member of SG1 has any reason still to be a competent (non-wibbling-and-drooling) and functional individual (if they were real in the real world)?

4. How would you rank the competence and effectiveness of the four leaders of the SGC we've seen (Hammond, Weir, O'Neill, Landry)?

5. What are five of the things you think Teal'c did during "Window of Opportunity" as stress relievers when we didn't see him with Jack (as in, other than the slamming of the door and the juggling and the golf)?

Ha! You're asking essay questions! Not fair. :) I'll have to get back to these.

Okay, so I read this:

"Two guinea pigs then tested them in real zero-gravity conditions. The results were videotaped but are considered so sensitive that even Nasa was only given a censored version."

And I'm thinking, 'How sensitive could it be? It's two little furry animals, yo!' Then I realize that no, they were referring to actual people, though the article doesn't really make that clear. Okay...

But then I remember seeing an MRI of two people having sex in an MRI machine. For science, right? And I saw this on the *freaking Discovery channel*. (or The Learning Channel, or what-the-fuck other educational channel). And NASA is such a bunch of prudes that they have to censor the whole Sex in Weightlessness thing? Bah. Silly.

I know, J ;) Only *I* would watch a show about fucking in MRI tubes. D'oh.

I will always love you for keeping a more or less straight face while I was fitted for suspension cuffs.

I so read it that way, too. And then had the same realization!

So how does one volunteer for THAT duty?!?!?!?

*has visions of Jack reading THAT report and determining he needs more empirical data and plans to visit Sam in the weigh-station before she gets the gravity fixed*

*thinks about Doctors Carter and Lee on said station and now needs to scrub eyes and brain with lye*

Best Trek Captain for:

1. Leadership ability
2. Pure Sex Appeal/animal magnetism
3. Courtesy/gentlemanliness
4. Looks (not necessarily the same as #2)
5. Fun canon pairing with someone on their crew

What's your fave "rare" (i.e., non-canon) pairing for each Trek show?

What's your fave "rare" (i.e., non-canon) pairing on SG-1?

splash_the_cat December 14 2007, 04:07:38 UTC
1. Picard or Sisko.
2. Kirk
3. Picard.
4. Sisko.
5. Picard/Crusher.

I didn't really go much for pairings in Trek. As for SG-1, my two non-canon pairings are Sam/Vala and Sam/Ronon.

I totally think that once he gets past the fact that she's not Elizabeth, Ronon would completely respect Sam and find her hawt. And how could anyone not find HIM hawt. :D
