I believe I was warned about Apollo and Lancelot in Horatio Hornblower. How the duece, then, did my fellow geeks fail to notice that WEDGE was Captain in this bloody series!?! WEDGE!!!

No wonder he's made captain. By this point, he's still the only Rebel pilot* to make it through all three original Star Wars movies, so he'd better be a frakking captain...




*ETA: Besides Luke, of course, but he doesn't fairly count because he cheats and uses the Force. But Wedge is way up there, yo.

We watched this week's Battlestar Galactica and were bored. Why? Because Her Royal Highness was nowhere to be seen. Then the previews promised us a Starbuck-heavy next episode, and we realized she was just recharging. That's twenty-odd episodes without a break. I fear the onslaught now that she is rested.

So, too, should the rest of the world. When I think of the great tragedies that could have been prevented had Starbuck been around...

--The Black Death brought to an early end when Starbuck not only hunts down and destroys all plague rats everywhere, but her killer immune system fights off the plague and brings a cure to millions.

--The Great Chicago Fire is prevented when Starbuck slaps Mrs. O'Leary's cow and says, "Knock that the frak off."

We should be so lucky were she to favor us thusly. Alas, her kind has not made it so far as Earth just yet...we can only hope she might do so soon...
