soul food

Went to Seoul House on Somerset. Food was yummy. We sat in the booth. The booth was a little bit warm but otherwise a nice spot, very private. posted by Richard at 20:58 / permalink (post) | permalink (numeric)

getcher galactica 2 news

Season 2 of the new Battlestar Galactica will start airing on the Sci-Fi Channel in the US of A on July 15, 2005. The Space channel in Canada says it will air here "in the fall".

The only complaint I have about the otherwise amazing BSG is the spoiler montage they run at the beginning of every ep. I just skip it / close my eyes.

Also, those of you who have only seen the NorthAm version, rather than err, "previewing" the UK version, have missed out on the awesome UK theme music.

The NorthAm music is some kinda blandly heroic symphonic stuff.
The UK is this freaky vocal thing.

As luck would have it, you can download both versions from the Space BSG downloads page.
