Battlestar Rochambotica
Now that I’m all up to my ears watching Battlestar Galactica on DVD, everything seems to have a gritty trillium sheen of space opera subtext. (Yes I know that sheens and subtexts represent a literary disconnect. I’m wrestling two very active kids and that’s the best I can do right now. I invite you to offer any improvements you consider worth the effort.) At the same time, Zach has learned how to play Rock-Paper-Scissors (or “Rochambo"), and he really loves robots. So not long ago he asked to play “Robot-chambo.” I love his creativity, but I’m afraid of the implications of losing a game of Rock-Paper-Cylon.
O crap gotta go.
that's just the way it seemed to me at 08:21 AM
