[21:30] <PHREAKER> kirk didn't wanna wake up with the same broad everyday

[21:30] <Bynw> hiyas BoJay

[21:30] <dragon> naval captains don't interact with their crew that way

[21:30] <allyzoo> well, that may be the case, but they perhaps only included the alien affairs because they were not everyday occurances

[21:30] <CaptBohr> Hello BoJay

[21:30] <bsgbojay> I know all Richard's secrets and I will reveal for a suitable bribe

[21:30] <PHREAKER> exactly

[21:30] <PHREAKER> really

[21:30] <PHREAKER> how much

[21:30] <CaptBohr> how much?

[21:30] <dragon> how much

[21:32] <PHREAKER> hey jack

[21:32] <CaptBohr> BoJay...will you be at DragonCon this year???

[21:32] <bsgbojay> just another crappy day in paradise here

[21:32] <dragon> yeah?

[21:32] <bsgbojay> probably no dragon con this year - - the con doesnt pay expenses

[21:32] <PHREAKER> come to canada make it better it sucks ass up here

[21:32] <dragon> what con will you be attending in the near future?

[21:33] <allyzoo> what about vancouver?

[21:33] <bsgbojay> i would rather concentrate efforts in getting to places i haven't visited

[21:33] <PHREAKER> vancouver is a dirty place

[21:33] <bsgbojay> Canada is the best

[21:33] <PHREAKER> halifax

[21:33] <allyzoo> thank you

[21:33] <PHREAKER> canada rules

[21:33] <bsgbojay> TT was ther best con I ever attended - -

[21:33] <dragon> cool

[21:33] <PHREAKER> awesome

[21:33] <bsgbojay> they will not have us back 2 yrs in a row

[21:33] <dragon> going again>?

[21:34] <dragon> shoot

[21:34] <allyzoo> yes, but there is always next year

[21:34] <PHREAKER> dammit

[21:34] <bsgbojay> but I think I am going to be in BC in August - - Richard too

[21:34] * b5kosh is a computer geek :-)

[21:34] <dragon> bc?

[21:34] <PHREAKER> well time for a road trip

[21:34] <allyzoo> when is the bc thing?

[21:34] <CaptBohr> Well, we will miss you at Dragon Con..I truly enjoyed the 1 man show last year

[21:34] <CaptBohr> It was great

[21:34] <bsgbojay> look in your con sites - - Victoria - - Aug 3 i think

[21:35] <dragon> is there a website for bc?

[21:35] <dragon> victoria... got it

[21:35] <bsgbojay> the cabaret is my favorite thing to do

[21:35] <PHREAKER> to bc aug 3 victoria bc i'll be there

[21:35] <CaptBohr> Well it was a hit

[21:35] <dragon> I'll hit it

[21:35] <allyzoo> I'm really sorry I missed that at TT

[21:35] <CaptBohr> I have to say my fav you did was from My Fair Lady

[21:35] <bsgbojay> my con appearances are very limited - -Sophie says she is having trouble booking dates

[21:35] <PHREAKER> i am not sure i was in bc nice place

[21:36] <bsgbojay> Evidently Dirk is hitting the cons this year - -he is more valued by the promoters than me

[21:36] <dragon> is there a battlestar con in the works?

[21:36] <PHREAKER> so your still cool

[21:36] <CaptBohr> Jack...I know Richard and Dirk are planning on being at DragonCon, is this a hint to more being done with Battlestar

[21:36] <allyzoo> unfair

[21:37] <CaptBohr> And is there anymore news on universal

[21:37] <PHREAKER> yeah

[21:37] <bsgbojay> but - -I will be at Gateway in St Louis in July and Archon in Ill in October - - possibly Grand Slam in LA in March

[21:37] <PHREAKER> we want more battlestar

[21:37] <bsgbojay> the news on BSG

[21:37] <bsgbojay> nothing as far as I know

[21:37] <PHREAKER> dammit

[21:37] <bsgbojay> Richard concentrating on Magellan

[21:38] <allyzoo> oh, on the Space station they are now playing a clip with Richard talking about his new vision of BSG

[21:38] <bsgbojay> I honestly think there is an unseen power within Universal that is saying no BSG

[21:38] <dragon> when he done, is there plans for one>?

[21:38] <PHREAKER> i have space

[21:38] <CaptBohr> What do you think about the rumor of Sci-fi channel doing a new Battlestar without the Galatica??

[21:38] <bsgbojay> consider all the other revivals - -Lost in Space- -Bionic Man - - why no bsg

[21:39] <PHREAKER> space has bsg on every week

[21:39] <PHREAKER> mars attacks

[21:39] <dragon> anyway to find out who that power is?

[21:39] <bsgbojay> consider even Glen after all the public announcements came up empty

[21:39] <allyzoo> yes, but sadly , last week they started to run Galactica 1980

[21:39] <bsgbojay> scifi channel stated they were going to do it and then had to retract

[21:40] <dragon> so even they came up short

[21:40] <PHREAKER> what ever it is i will take care of it for a small fee

[21:40] <Ila> I'd rather there be no BSG rather than what S/F had planned!

[21:40] <CaptBohr> Agreed!!!

[21:40] <CaptBohr> Long live the Galactica!

[21:40] <PHREAKER> same here

[21:40] <bsgbojay> Who is a big cheese within Univ with another big pic coming out that might have a sore spot where BSG is concerned

[21:41] <allyzoo> point taken

[21:41] <bsgbojay> this is a quiz

[21:41] <PHREAKER> no

[21:41] <PHREAKER> i think

[21:41] <dragon> evil!!!

[21:41] <allyzoo> lol

[21:41] <bsgbojay> no guesses?

[21:42] <CaptBohr> no ideas

[21:42] <dragon> i'm you huckleberry

[21:42] <dragon> shoot

[21:42] <bsgbojay> then may the force be with all of you

[21:42] <Bynw> george lucus would be my guess given the history

[21:42] <bsgbojay> AH HA - -

[21:42] <Bynw> wrong though it may be....and i like both

[21:42] <PHREAKER> BoJay you will be the other big celeb i've since shatner came to my highschool

[21:43] <bsgbojay> there is nothing concrete - -i have no proof - -just a sneaky hunch

[21:43] *** Quits: genLee (JAVGUEST@=KAFJ19005A.ipt.aol.com) (QUIT: )

[21:43] <allyzoo> yes, but as guessing goes, that's probably a good one

[21:43] <bsgbojay> If UNIV will remake Chipos and the Dukes of Hazard - -why not BSG

[21:43] <dragon> that was the quiz? I'm lost...

[21:43] *** Joins: Lacy (gdfgd@=Gqg541-qek4.akl.ihug.co.nz)

[21:43] <CaptBohr> Very good question

[21:43] <Lacy> Hi

[21:44] <allyzoo> they like shows with class?

[21:44] <allyzoo> I am being sarcastic

[21:44] <dragon> chips? class?

[21:44] <CaptBohr> it would seen that there is enough fandom to bring back BSG

[21:44] <PHREAKER> exactly that bullsh*t right there

[21:44] <Ila> Anybody that can carry a grudge that long is sure to have ulcers and such

[21:44] <bsgbojay> I don't know if GL put the word in somebody's ear - but he does have an agenda - -and he does have emmence power at Universal

[21:44] <CaptBohr> After all Trek did it over and over again

[21:45] <dragon> anyway to buy the rights from universal?

[21:45] <bsgbojay> Richard has done everything he can - - he is moving in another direction now

[21:45] <PHREAKER> i'll kick who evers ass stands in the way of bsg for ya bojay

[21:45] <allyzoo> Well, we all know how many Chips fan clubs there are

[21:45] <dragon> i've got explosives

[21:45] <bsgbojay> with the hope if Magellan gets on somewhere and is successful then the studio might come back to BSG

[21:45] <CaptBohr> I hope so

[21:45] <PHREAKER> there is enough demand for bsg

[21:46] <bsgbojay> re buying the rights - - we tried - -Univ will not sell them

[21:46] <allyzoo> if Magellan is half as good as the trailor for BSG, it'll be a hit

[21:46] <dragon> but... anyway to buy the rights.. or force them to sell

[21:46] <CaptBohr> That's odd...any reason why?

[21:46] <dragon> k

[21:46] <bsgbojay> you cannot force them to sell

[21:46] <dragon> why didn't they sell?

[21:46] <bsgbojay> thats the big question - why not remake BSG given the obvious fan demand

[21:46] <PHREAKER> or maybe they are thinking how successful another series or movie would be

[21:46] <Ila> Why would they hang onto it?

[21:47] <Ila> And not use it?

[21:47] <bsgbojay> that is the hidden agenda I referred to

[21:47] <Ila> Ah

[21:47] <bsgbojay> who is saying NO and why?

[21:47] <PHREAKER> debating well we can take a risk ad possibly loose millions or make millions

[21:47] <dragon> well time for an infiltration mission...

[21:48] <allyzoo> yes, send in the daggits

[21:48] <bsgbojay> As to my good pal Richard - -he called me in the middle of the night from MO last weekend

[21:48] <Ila> Sounds kinda like a Count Iblis power trip to me

[21:48] *** Parts: b5kosh (JAVGUEST@=XS9Vuwf23.tnt3.knoxville.tn.da.uu.net)

[21:48] <dragon> get someone on the inside..

[21:48] <bsgbojay> I think he had gotten into the sake and missed having me with him

[21:48] <PHREAKER> haha

[21:48] <bsgbojay> He is coming up here to visit me in a few weeks

[21:48] <allyzoo> I haven't heard of anyone drinking that stuff in years

[21:49] <allyzoo> Say hi for all of us

[21:49] <Ila> Tell him we haven't give up

[21:49] <bsgbojay> No sake - -you need to be at a con with Richard and me - - first night - -the nearest Japanese restaurant for s

[21:49] <dragon> I think theirs someone high up who is willing to spill the beans

[21:49] <bsgbojay> sake and terayaki

[21:49] <PHREAKER> i heard people have called richard and congradulated him for being on surviver

[21:49] <allyzoo> sounds good to me

[21:49] <Ila> LOL

[21:49] <bsgbojay> talk about a coincidence

[21:50] <allyzoo> you can't get sake where I live

[21:50] <bsgbojay> you can get sake everywhere - -even in CANADA - -we did

[21:50] <dragon> survivor guy... i'd sue him... using an already established name in the professional world

[21:50] <bsgbojay> anyway - let me encourage you all to keep up the letters and other publicity

[21:51] <allyzoo> hey, the nearest thing we have to exotic food is Burger king

[21:51] <CaptBohr> with regaurds to Richard....How is the Magellan project coming along

[21:51] <dragon> sag

[21:51] <dragon> screen actors guild.

[21:51] <dragon> i think

[21:51] <PHREAKER> that would piss me off people calling in the middle off the night

[21:51] <bsgbojay> Magellan is being finalized into a trailer like BSG - -I am sorry not to have been in it

[21:52] <CaptBohr> cool

[21:52] <dragon> burger king? yuck!

[21:52] <bsgbojay> I was never available the days he shot

[21:52] <CaptBohr> sorry to hear that

[21:52] <bsgbojay> Also the behind the scenes from BSG will be out soon

[21:52] <allyzoo> too much tennis

[21:52] <CaptBohr> cool

[21:52] <PHREAKER> burger king kicks ass

[21:52] <dragon> cool

[21:52] <CaptBohr> that will be great

[21:53] <dragon> hope so
