Galactica Tidbits

So season three of Battlestar Galactica ended leaving a few questions. One that I’ve been debating with friends is whether or not Starbuck reappearing means she’s a cylon. I’m inclined to say no. Nothing indicates she was resurrected. Nothing says she wasn’t somehow saved by the mysterious cylon ship seen just before her ship explodes. It looks like I might be right.

Despite Kara’s re-appearance she is NOT the fifth Cylon it seems. Moore says he thinks we will meet the last Cylon model next season.

It’s an interesting article and gives a few clues for season four like who the fifth cylon is, that the “final five” are fundamentally different (and therefore so is Tyrol and Cally’s baby), and that something happened on/concerning Pegasus that will affect season four.

In other Galactica news, I am incredibly insanely irreconcilably jealous of this guy who got to visit the BSG set during filming and conoodle with the cast and crew. Some of the pictures are amazing and his descriptions, such as that even the binders on the CIC have actual content and not just filler, are revealing.

Jealous! *sigh*

Like a Lake

I’m bummed. Yesterday Jerome and I took our long overdue comp day and went out to go surfing. We haven’t been out in the water in about half year and I was pretty psyched to go.

But when we got up to Bolinas the Pacific was like a lake. In fact I’ve seen lakes with bigger waves. I don’t know about Jerome but I was rather disappointed.

On the advice of Nick at Two Mile Surf Shop we went and checked out Rodeo Beach at Fort Cronkite. It looks like surfing there will be pretty nice… once there’s a swell. We hiked down the beach to see if we could spy San Francisco around the bend but it got a bit rocky and slippery.

We did discover that the coast road up Highway One is finally open again and almost completely rebuilt and repaved in the spots that had been severely damaged in the storms last year. It was like driving a completely new road to the coast! It kind of threw me off, actually.

So over 100 miles of driving and nothing to really show for it. Not exactly the day I was expecting but honestly, it wasn’t so bad. I just wish there was something out there to surf…
