Did anyone else notice this episode was allover a zombie flick? I mean, obviously they weren't Zombies per se (that was already done in SG-1 after all, on Earth no less) but the whole trapped in a shed with boarded windows, thick fog, creatures running around in the dark that aren't quite human, weird tilting of the head with some Vampire like reflexes, running through the forest, and of course protecting the girl. Oh, the repititious dual travel music intermidded by sharp attack notes, the lack of eyes, the repeated need to shot a thing as many times as possible... anybody else see the traffic direction? And before I forget, the scene where idiot-alien man gets pulled through the wall by zombie-come-aliens (though I'm not sure they'd admit it, I'm positive it's a direct theft (artisicly borrowed) from a certain spoof movie made by some brits that will go, for now, unnamed.
So yeah, cheesy, but okay. I'm just not really one for Zombie fics. And very little McKay, Teyla *or* Ronon. How unfair is that? Ronon and Teyla, doing without, is evil. Going with so little McKay is just death worthy.
The spiderman wall climbing bit was kinda cool though

Might Seem A Little Random...
So I was watching 'Land Before Time' with one of the neigborhood kids, and I thought to myself- where in the fuck are all these little adventures happening. So, despite that some of the little toons are from Jurassic (littlefoot) and some from Crustacious (I know I'm spelling that wrong- but I mean Ducky, btw) they are all native too one of two places. Utah and Alberta.
But, thing is, a few of them don't exist in Utah (only one of them)
So, officially, for anyone who cares, the Land Before Time movies only work if they little dino adventures live ' in ' southern Alberta, Canada. And, seeing that, it looks like the 'Great Unknown' is actually an area called the Badlands. Which would probably make a great selling point for the Drumheller museum (site of the most dino finds in the world).

7 Billion People, 1 Planet
Okay, so a longer post then normal, but I'm actually on the web this time, instead of my little blogger addon. Which, though helpful, doesn't quite mesh with my, at times, somewhat long winded mentality.
I was on Yahoo! reading about (yet again) disappearing ice caps (shock and surprise! gasp! -not.) when I decided to comment. And, as I'm sure any Yahoo! explorers know- there are a few idiots who like to comment. Some people may consider me one of them, for all I know, though I would hope otherwise.
So, basically I said to the world: even if the environment goes through natural cycles (which we all know it does) there *are* 7 billion people on the planet, most of whom (the very, very grand majority) are doing negative impacts. You bike instead of drive? Good for you, but you still need to mine the materials for the bike, put it through a processing plant, paint it, use rubber for the seats and handles, blah blah blah. Run isntead of bike? Woo for you! But then, think of all the materials that go into your shoes too.
So yeah, even the most environmentally friendly person is, in some way, doing something wrong. If you're not living in a cave, naked, eating rabbits and deer that you caught with your own bare hands, your not a truly earth-lovin' person.
So yeah- 7 billion people on the planet, each making a negative impact; natural cycle or not, there is no way in ever loving hell that the planet is just completly ignoring the fact that we're here. We're here, we know it, she knows it, and she is being affected.
In summery, this is the qoute of what I posted on Yahoo! "Do you honestly believe that with nerly 7 billion people on the planet, we're *not* making a negative impact? It's kind of hard to ignore that many ppl, and all their pollutants."
At which point this moron on Yahoo! says, to qoute, "So, jeanniewood, what have YOU done to reduce your 'carbon footprint' (laugh!)? Sold your car, stopped wasting electricity just surfing the web, have you been sterilized so you don't add to those 7 billion people? Remember, you science drop-out, that CO2 isn't pollution. Clearly you've been brainwashed by the Greenies."
Does anyone, anywhere, see my use of the word CO2? Does anyone, anywhere, see me saying that I'm not just as problamatic as anyone else? Seriously, moron needs to get a freakin brain and realize that I'm not blaming any particular person- I'm stating the fact that we're bitchin' up the planet.
But, shrugs or whatnot, I suppose. Whatever animal manages to get through what we've done to planet is the next biggie, I guess. Probably alligators and crocks. And sharks. They've been around for a plenty long time already. The planet will certainly change in major ways, and it may be the end for *us*, but that doesn't mean its the end for everyone.
As a sidenote, the guy who made himself look like an idiot on Yahoo! was named todmtodm. I really hope he gets stuck in his garage with the car on. Seriously. He needs to realize that he doesn't actually understand what's going on- maybe feeling like what the planet must for a while will help. Suffactate in CO2 guy. Seriously.
/// And as a sidenote: I don't drive (I cant afford gas prices and do school and morgage at the same time), I didn't fail my science courses, and while CO2 might not be a pollutant (yes, its a natural biproduct of nature) the obscene amounts we pump into the air isn't doing anybody favours. Too much of anything *is* a bad thing. And the 'Greenies' as he so callaously called them, are at least putting in an attempt to postpone the result, unlike some people.

Website Fun
Okay, so it's not like im trying to create a new wikipedia or anything- I just like to retain the information of where I got stories and icons, and keep those links for future referance.
So why I decided not to for the fanfiction on my webiste really pisses me off- I can't let this just go unchecked, which means that my website (usually much fun to be had) just became like... work.
Egh. Damn it.
...Ah well...

Daily Post
Okay so... i've slept for the first tim (for more then 2 hours per every 24) in four days. Going without sleep at all is easy- becasue its like, whateve, im just tired. Getting to sleep for 2 hours then having to wake up again is freakin hell on earth.
My longest full stretch with no sleep is 86 hours. I was seeing things, and had this weird issue about fruit flies- and catching them out of mid air, by the end of it. Which I managed, by the way. An orange juice spill under my fridge managed to get quite a collection of the little buggers- each of which i managed to catch and kill while high on exhaustian.
So yeah, not being able to sleep at all is easy for me, in a way. but trying to go back and forth is an issue.
Which inevitably leads me to rambling, you see...

SGA S05E04 "The Deadalus Variations" 3/5 stars
okay... so I just finished watching Stargate Atlantis S05E04- "The Deadalus Variations"... and yeah, it was okay. Admittidly it may be the fact that I'm just so looking forward to next weeks episode of SGA (okay, has anyone *seen* the preview? I'm going to cry, I just know it!) but this week just didn't do it for me. Kind of like last week.
The episode itself was a good concept, but slow. There wasn't any real character interaction, very little in the way of character development (Teyla getting a bit more into the schematics is pretty cool) and it
s even a little... silly when it shouldn't be.
Why would four people die all together, in a single corner, looking generally as though nothing in the world had actually happened to them? I mean, McKay at least should have shown some very obvious signs of having gone through hunger stress. Hypoglacemia anyone? But no... they looked like they all just gave up on day, which obviously wouldn't happen.
And the bad guys... anyone else think they looked like the writers had decided to just throw in a Borg out of lack of imagination? I mean, without the cool tech though? *shrug*
The end was cute, I liked Shep's and Sheppard's interaction, as well as the continued interest in an obviously failed project that Rodney has.
One other sidenote: Rodney & baby... wow, uncomfortable much? lol. Funny, but very stressed.
Oh, and that bit about Ronon just mashing on the control keyboard. ...I did that once on my computer, but I was high on some medication and not thinking clearly. lol. Then again, Ronon has been through a lot lately.
...I wonder if Rodney ever actually brought up his drug thing from a few seasons ago to the others, or if it just ended up an unspoken thing in the reports- which Ronon would have never read.
...There's a plot possibility in that.
Anyway, peace out.

Brought over from LiveJournal
Thing is, I never update my livejournal. Literally, I just checked, and last time was in 2007. So maybe my fans (the whole 2 imaginary ones) that come and visit only actually see something new and shiny every 6 months or so.
Sucks to be them.
Anyway, I decided to bring over my only really worthwhile thing as far as creations go- images. I started making these little icons for phrases from Stargate back while I was still into creating images. I sucked at it, so now I collect them for my webiste (go visit, its updated every day!) but don't actually create. And likewise go to my YouTube bit; I actually created this awesome help video on how to make your damned fucking annoying... damned, damned, damned fucking annoying Vista work with dual monitors. Some ppl can do it, some can't- but it turns out I had a rather unique problem, far as I can tell- and maybe other ppl just don't realize they have it too.
Anyway, here's the icons. Enjoy, or don't. lol. Drop a line either way. http://hjwood.livejournal.com/tag/icons
Enter, stage right-
So I'm actually using my little blog spot vista addon to do these posts- which is pretty cool, 'cause I think I'm much more likely to keep on posting away with such.
*shrug*
Who knows though- 'cause I sure as hell don't. We'll find out for the future though, I suppse.
So yeah, these posts are always gonna be a little short- 'less of course I'm on a rant.
Peace out.
Exit, stage left.
