I love Stargate. I don’t enthuse much about it around here because I’ve already got a lot on my plate, and I do try to keep things at least marginally related to game design. (Yes, yes, I could rant about Stargate Worlds, but they have kind of slipped off of my radar. Woe is me.)
Still, if you’ve ever had a fandom tingle in your bones for Stargate, especially SG-1 or Atlantis, you might get a kick out of what my little sister did recently:
Yes, that’s a very punny riff on the Gou’ald name for the Stargate, the “chappa’ai”. She’s an English major, so she’s got to get it out of her system now and then. My little brother is an artist, so of course he had to chip in.
Oh, and yes, I have seen the pie in person, and it’s awesome. I just wish I’d had a hand in its creation because I like that sort of creativity.
I almost feel guilty for introducing my family to Stargate, considering that they have taken the fandom *coughobsessioncough* WAY past what I’ve ever done (Gou’ald logo design)… but at the same time, there’s just something heartwarming to see my siblings employing their talents and having fun with something that I happen to like too. I hope that I can do better for my children; give them the good while not sending them off the deep end.
Then again, perhaps this isn’t a surprise, though. My mother did introduce us all to MacGyver, so SG-1 was a natural successor to the throne. RDA is the man.
Anyway, go check out her blog. The pie isn’t the only great part about their party.
Cool blog, thanks for the link
My bro is a big SG fan too. I used to watch it a lot but I haven’t watched it much since RDA left. Great guy, I concur
I loved the earlier episodes especially the Groundhog Day one when O’Neil and Teal’c get stuck in the time loop and start playing golf through the Stargate. Classy 
Making my way through Star Trek Enterprise now. It’s pretty decent.
Oh, yes, “Window of Opportunity” (the Groundhog Day episode) is brilliant. It’s the favorite of almost everyone in my family.
I never did get into Enterprise. The Vulcan catsuit and first couple of episodes killed it for me. I wanted to like it, since I held Scott Bakula in high regard, but it just didn’t work for me. Here’s hoping you enjoy it, though.
I’m starting to feel a tiny bit famous over this thing . . . you know what I realized? My post on Gateworld has a glaring grammatical error. I said “Nerdiness at it’s Extreme.” Sometimes my English Major-ness fails me. Sigh.
Well… considering that puns aren’t exactly the height of fine literature, let’s just say that you’re still recovering.
