It's such a shame that the BBC didn't have people of enough discrimination to realise what a peerless and priceless asset the dear little man would have been to the crew at *any* time in the series (or even as the star of Series 5). _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

Off the backburner and onto the plate...

This one, to my irritation, took a while... Regards Joanne The Thief's Lament (Way Over Yonder In The Minor Key; lyrics Woody Guthrie, tune Billy Bragg/Wilco) I was made to go by that great bully And then a little girl pulled a gun on me She took me to a man mad as can be 'Cause there ain't nobody who can steal like me She said that I lie so badly But to that door I was the key Only way to get what they want, you see And there ain't nobody who can steal like me Ain't nobody who can steal like me There's no other in the galaxy There's no other in the galaxy Ain't nobody who can steal like me I thought someone had heard my plea When I knew that she had followed me There is no one as sweet as she And there ain't nobody who can steal like me With just my girl for company I thought this is the place to be T'was then I saw I'd found my fee And there ain't nobody who can steal like me She thought that we were home and free I wish that it was meant to be My little girl's now lost to me Still there ain't nobody who can steal like me There's no other in the galaxy There's no other in the galaxy Ain't nobody who can steal like me Now I have flown so far away And I know I won't forget the day I had to let my girl go her own way 'Cause there ain't nobody who can steal like me Ain't nobody who can steal like me There's no other in the galaxy There's no other in the galaxy Ain't nobody who can steal like me _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

I suppose Mission Impossible (although I didn't see it or the series), Star Trek (although they get it wrong every other film), and Beverly Hillbillies . . . made money. The first couple Superman films weren't exactly travesties and I suppose Batman was pretty on target. Let's just try and be hopeful, here. _Maybe_ they'll get it right. _Maybe_ the past year was spent listening to fan concerns and making revisions. Maybe Travis really knew how to aim and Servalan actually did have as much dress sense as she thought. It's possible. Maybe. And, no, I did not have my mind and opinions reconfigured by Federation Psycho-surgeons before writing the above. And if they can just get it _half_ right, I'll be happy. So long as it's the right half. Ellynne ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO! Juno offers FREE or PREMIUM Internet access for less!

Re: [B7L] Zine lists coming up

Thanks for posting the zine lists, Sarah. Sarah also wrote: >1) There is roughly about four times as much gen as erotica-- and the >latter category includes not only slash but heterosexual publications like >Horizon's zine =Ultra=, as well as mixed zines that include many gen >stories. This is an interesting statistic. At risk of waking the [[...]], might I ask how is your zine database organised -- would it be easy to analyse trends over time wrt the proportions of gen, slash, het and mixed ? Tavia

Things you might hear in a B7 episode
by Ellynne G. 31 May '01

31 May '01

Was just browsing through a children's book (Broken Sky #6) and came across two lines that would fit perfectly in a B7 story (which is not to suggest anything else in the story, which is strongly Anime inspired, would). "Err . . . so explain to me again why I got volunteered for this when I got one of the long straws." And, in another scene a character is facing a difficult decision while claiming not to _really_ care about the people involved, not _personally_. "The combination of solitude and denial did wonders for his concentration." Well, that is Avon's MO.

Excellent. Still think you should produce a Jarriere zine. -- cheers Steve Rogerson http://homepages.poptel.org.uk/steve.rogerson Redemption 03, 21-23 February 2003, Ashford, Kent Celebrating 25 years of Blake's 7 and 10 years of Babylon 5 http://www.smof.com/redemption
