    • Got my check! Only took 6 hours. #fb #
    • Apparently 1031 vets got checks today at the LA office. I was # 474. Any who showed up after 1031 got turned away, told to come back Mon.#fb #
    • Sonofa…! Get home, sit down to watch #sgu and the cable's out! #
    • Cable's back on. @syfy is still playing The Mummy in the Pacific time zone, so we're good. #
    • @Mefran Fortunately the cable came back on with time to spare. It starts in 7 minutes in this time zone in reply to Mefran #
    • Watching the 1st ep of Transformers from 1984: "Sorry, Hound, I shouldn't have tried to shoot Megatron." "Shouldn't have missed, you mean!" #
    • HELLS YEAH! #SGU is starting up on @Syfy! Four minutes in and I can already tell it's 12 kinds of awesome! #fb #
    • @skela1979 Use the # in front of a word to turn it into a hashtag, making it searchable. Click it to search for more tweets w the same tag #
    • @skela1979 SGU is the new Stargate series, Stargate Universe. The first episode aired tonight, and MAN is it good. #
    • @super_spock but if it were told linearly, I don't think it would be nearly as interesting. I doubt they'll do every episode like this #
    • @super_spock SG1 went 10 seasons, so it's more TOS/TNG combined. Atlantis ended after 5 seasons, so it didn't get a Dominion War. #
    • @super_spock I guess ripping out some big hunks of metal from somewhere inside the ship to weld over the door that won't close is too simple #
    • @super_spock Or, maybe, they could use one of those camera spheres to hit the button by remote #
    • @dannymcguffin Well, some of them won't survive the pilot, and from what I hear, the body count will keep rising for the next few eps #
    • #SGU was pretty good. Started strong but ended kinda weak, though. #
    • SG-1: TOS/TNG, Atlantis: DS9 sans Dominion War, #SGU: Voyager, so I guess the next Stargate series after this will be a prequel #fb #
