This is the best thing I've seen on the internet since the
first time I'd ever used it to find popular song lyrics. (And
that was almost ten years ago.)[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]What I really want to see is an OFFICIAL statement from the Henson people. Still, I'm pretty happy anyways.[/color:post_uid0]

Is it this one? :D[/color:post_uid0]

[FatMatDuhRat]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Sometime in June (I'm guessing that it will be released
in the Summer of 2004) or maybe later (if not then, it
should definitely come out in the Fall of this year) we'll
get to see the official 4-EP series that TPTB in charge
of [b:post_uid0]Farscape[/b:post_uid0] are going to release for all the rabid fans
throughout the world.

Sing it with me:
I can't wait! I can't wait! I can't wait! I can't wait! I can't wait!
I can't wait! I can't wait! I can't wait! I can't wait! I can't wait!
I can't wait! I can't wait! I can't wait! I can't waaaaaait!

[b:post_uid0]I CAN'T FRELLING WAIT!!![/b:post_uid0]

(Sorry about the extra exclamation points, [b:post_uid0]Zeke[/b:post_uid0]!)[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]::joins in the FatMat chorus::

Nic-- nope, it's the one which goes "Ole, Ole, Ole, Ole"... Maybe it's a Singaporean thing; I don't know, I don't watch much football.

::sings:: Farscape, Farscape, Farscape, Farscape...[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]GASP!

You have violated the Prime Directive!

(of course if you go back and edit out the exclamation points, you`d be violating the Temporal Prime Directive... either way, Zeke will probably vaporize you)

As someone who never got the chance to watch Farscape (the official statement of the HTV network: "We`re currently airing Enterprise and our policy is to have just one sci-fi series on our weekly schedule, so we are not interested in airing Farscape") but is very curious about the series, I join in your victory dance! :D[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]GAHH!
That must frelling SUCK! No offense, Zeke, but I think they made a serious error in taste when bringing in [i:post_uid0]ENTERPRISE[/i:post_uid0] instead of Farscape. Someone needs to give them a good hard knock on the head to wake 'em up!

That's even worse than in Singapore, where they bring in half a dozen sci-fi TV shows and air them all PAST MIDNIGHT. Even pop sci-fi like [i:post_uid0]The X-Files[/i:post_uid0] gets shoved into the twilight zone between twelve pm and one (their so-called sci-fi band). Is it any wonder that all my current scifi addictions were fed off the Internet?

It's the same all around the world. Television executives have their brains in their BUTTS. Smartheaddumbasses...[/color:post_uid0]

[Nic Corelli]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I should be grateful because that network at least airs some sci-fi. The others don`t!

They started with DS9 a few days ago, btw, :)[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]ARGH YOU GET DS9?!
Did you mention something about having living space in your apartment some time back? ;)[/color:post_uid0]

[Nic Corelli]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Yup, but I already found a roomate. And he`s from Switzerland, :D Still, if you`re willing to come here ALL THE WAY from Singapore, you`re absolutely welcome! :D

I get the room with the TV and video, of course, so I can stay up watching TV till 5 a.m. You can get the room with the computer, but don`t stay online for hours and hours, the phone bill will be atrocious! :D[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]What you're trying to do, won't work, Nic. She said she thinks [i:post_uid0]women[/i:post_uid0] from Europe are hot. :D

Isn't it kind of useless for 17 to fly all the way over to Europe to watch DS9 and then NOT getting to watch it? :eyeroll:[/color:post_uid0]

[Nic Corelli]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Well, perhaps Mira Furlan will come here and visit her family, so 17 could see her in the street, :D After all, Mira Furlan and I were born in the same town.

Hee hee! Mira and I are pals, :D

(no, we`re not...)

(I had too much chocolate today...)

Come on, Cat, you don`t think I would be so tyrranical and wouldn`t let my roomate watch telly with me, now do you? :D I WANT company! If my roomate will not prove an entertaining DS9 co-watcher, I`ll return him and ask for refund. :p[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]::spits water all over her keyboard::

Really?!
Does she have a sister, Nic? Does she? Does she?

::ahem::

Great, now my computer's gotten water all over it again. GAH!

This forum gets more and more interesting by the second.

Nic-- why don't you participate in the story threads in Miscellaneous? Since you're posting so much everywhere else.[/color:post_uid0]

[Nic Corelli]

[quote:post_uid0="taya17"][color=#000000:post_uid0]Nic-- why don't you participate in the story threads in Miscellaneous? Since you're posting so much everywhere else.[/color:post_uid0][/quote:post_uid0]
[color=#000000:post_uid0]I would like to, I really would, but... I don`t have the time... :( I enter the Forum, I read and post a few posts in News and 5MV Talk, maybe Science Fiction, and all of a sudden I`m out of time, I have to go somewhere, I have to study again, my sister is screaming like crazy, demanding the computer for herself... And I never make it to Miscellaneous... AAAAAH!

But I`ll try... perhaps one day I`ll succeed...[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Would that also be why you're never on any kind of messenger?[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Nic-- I have a suggestion. Every alternate time you come to this forum, start with subsections on OPPOSITE ends. That should enable you to get through each subsection every once in a while.

Works for me, at least... :)[/color:post_uid0]

[Nic Corelli]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Yup, that`s why I`m not on messengers... :(

Thanks for the advice, 17... Although, my family is moving out this weekend, so from now on they won`t be interrupting me anymore, and I`ll have much more time, :D[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Does that also mean you'll be on some messenger again? :p[/color:post_uid0]

[Nic Corelli]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Hardly...

They have finally moved out, and I had to help them with all that, which was the reason I`ve been away from the Forums, and the site, for SIX DAYS!

I simply didn`t have the time, at all. I had to clean up the apartment, it was a ghastly mess after the moving. Fortunately, it`s sparkling now, :D

And I`m back...

17 - my roomate from Switzerland changed his mind, he`s not coming. DS9 is halfway through its first season, so you better get here before they discover the Dominion, :D


EDIT - About the "Hardly" part - since now I`m living alone, I`m paying the phone bill out of my own pocket... so I won`t be able to spend much time on the messengers anymore, :D[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Nic! You're back! Yay! :)

A couple of my class mates are fixing some people up with cheap (if illegal) ADSL. Maybe I can convince them to go to Croatia for that? :D[/color:post_uid0]

[Nic Corelli]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Ooo, lovely! I`d really like something quick like ADSL... my internet connection is so damn slow sometimes...

And also if you know someone who is looking for an apartment, send him here. I want the rent money! :D[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Halfway through the first season, you say?
::riffles through the papers:: Idiots! Why don't they have the price of a ticket to Croatia listed in here?! ::THWAP!s papers with a rolled-up newspaper::[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Irony? No, I never bother with that. I just get my stuff straight out of the tumble-dryer.

But I [i:post_uid0]can[/i:post_uid0] wait. I can wait about the time it takes me to watch four seasons of Farscape. :p[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Cat-- if you ever get your hands on seasons 2, 3 and 4 of Farscape do let me know, as I haven't watched most of it yet.

Yes I meant that as a "If you get them online and have them on a computer or ripped onto a VCD" kind of thing. ;) Pirate extraordinaire, me.[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]How extraordinaire? I mean, I'm not so bad myself. :D

I've only seen the first four episodes for now, due to the fact that you can only download one at a time.[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I ::was:: right! You WERE watching FS! WHoohoo!

Now, if only I could get you to watch B5 ::rubs hands::[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I promise I'm going to watch it whenever it'll be aired here, which... might take a while. :eyeroll:[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I really wish they showed them over here - they might possibly be on one of our cable channels, but I have no way of knowing. Still, my uncle and aunt and one of their sons are big big fans, and they have something like three dozen B5 tapes as well as the [i:post_uid0]Crusade[/i:post_uid0] box-set and at least two of the films.[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]You're going to need my address for that, so let me know when you're done. :D[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Oo, oo, ship them over here as well!

My address is Trnsko 31 A. The block that looks like it survived a nuclear war.[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0][quote:post_uid0="Nic Corelli"][My address is Trnsko 31 A. [/quote:post_uid0]
How do you pronounce [i:post_uid0]that[/i:post_uid0]? And also, wouldn't I need more information than that to send a package over? Like what CITY you live in? :)

[quote:post_uid0]The block that looks like it survived a nuclear war.[/quote:post_uid0]
You mean it didn't actually go through one? Damn! That means my nukes missed... erm, heh heh. You didn't hear that. :D[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]It could be pronounced "Tern-sko". It means "Thornville". :D

The city is Zagreb (it`s in the profile, actually). Trnsko 31 A, second floor - left, 3rd door out of Six. The sign on the door says Capet-Valois De Olympique Marseille Corelli [i:post_uid0]ming[/i:post_uid0]. :p[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]So, if I were to mail anything, it would be addressed to:

Nic Capet-Valois De Olympique Marseille Corelli [i:post_uid0]ming[/i:post_uid0]
Level 2 Trnsko 31-A
Zagreb, Croatia

No, that's not right... I still need the exact unit number and the postal code.

Aren't you worried that I seem extremely interested in getting your address just right? <strike>letterbombletterbomb</strike> Errrr, I mean, fan mail, yeah. That's right! ;)[/color:post_uid0]

[NAHTMMM]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]You forgot the italics. :smile:[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Sorry ::goes to fix it::[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]It`s so boring here, a letterbomb would be an exciting diversion, :D

And what exact unit are you referring to? I don`t think you need it. And don`t worry about the postal code, there`s only one Zagreb here - any international postman will find it easily - it`s surrounded by a big cloud of smog, that melted all the snow before it even hit the ground...

That`s right... this is my first winter without any snow whatsoever! Even the CNN forecast said there will be snow in Zagreb last week... but nooo!

:angry because he can`t make a monstrous snowman in the park:


:madder:[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]As in, unit number? Like, I live in an apartment block, and my flat's unit number is #04-14... you know... or else how would you tell the flats apart?

Are you SURE you wouldn't mind a letterbomb? :D[/color:post_uid0]

[Nic Corelli]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Oh, that unit number...

There is no such thing here. You tell the flats apart by the family names on the door... Capet-Valois De Olympi... in my case, :D :D


EDIT - Depends... Is it a chocolate letterbomb? (delusions caused by sleep deprivation... I think it`s time to go to bed now...hopefully I will wake up before 16:30 when Special Unit 2 starts...)[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Ohhh, alright, I will just write the whole "third door of six on the second floor" instruction thing then. ;)[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0][quote:post_uid0]The sign on the door says Capet-Valois De Olympique Marseille Corelli [i:post_uid0]ming.[/i:post_uid0][/quote:post_uid0]
It really says all that? Geez.

[quote:post_uid0]It`s so boring here, a letterbomb would be an exciting diversion[/quote:post_uid0]
Agreed. I mean, I don't usually open the mail anyway. :D

[quote:post_uid0]Ohhh, alright, I will just write the whole "third door of six on the second floor" instruction thing then.[/quote:post_uid0]
Then mine would probably be something like "A mile out of town, thataway, second farm on the right." :p
But really, if you'd go the other way, there's always someone near who can tell you where I live. And not because I'm such a well known person.[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Do you want a letterbomb too, Cat? I'll put one with a proximity mechanism on it so you don't even have to bother to open it up! :D[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Sure!

How sweet of you - not only you`re sharing free letterbombs, they`re also user-friendly!

[quote:post_uid0]It really says all that? Geez.
[/quote:post_uid0]

Yes. My next fiver will begin with - "Five-Minute XY, by Nic Capet-Valois De Olympique Marseille Corelli [i:post_uid0]ming[/i:post_uid0]".[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Maybe he's referring to the Klingon opera [i:post_uid0]X and Y[/i:post_uid0]?

[color=#000000:post_uid0]It`s a secret... but you`ll find out when Zeke publishes it in 2008. :D[/color:post_uid0]

[Zeke]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]What? I've never heard of a -- oh! Right. [i:post_uid0]That[/i:post_uid0] series. Yeah, 2008.[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Alright, so when is it aired, next year? ;)

Or maybe 2008 minus "soon"? I wonder when that would be...[/color:post_uid0]

[NAHTMMM]

[color=#000000:post_uid0][quote:post_uid0="catalina_marina"]Or maybe 2008 minus "soon"? I wonder when that would be...[/quote:post_uid0]
That would be 2009.










As in "2009 B.C."

;)[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Your faith in Zeke's "soon" is wonderful, nah. :D[/color:post_uid0]

[Nic Corelli]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Hmm... After months of off-topicking, I somehow noticed that the topic is called "Save Farscape"... :D

So, what`s with Farscape? When is it coming back?[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Somewhere around next year. I'm trying my best to catch up on four seasons minus twelf episodes before that. :D[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Cat-- where are you getting your FS sources from? /me wants 'em. :)[/color:post_uid0]
