Cylon Attack Thwarted By Denver Bombsquad!
From my sister - we are such BSG fans…I sent her a Cylon ‘Toaster’ for her birthday a few weeks ago!
From the Denver Post: “The Capricans in Denver, Colorado should can consider themselves blessed by the Gods. An 8-inch tall Centurion was spotted near Coors Field park, prompting one citizen to notify the police. You probably know what happened next: adjacent 20th street was closed causing rush hour traffic to pile up, and two hours later, after being unable to determine at the time if it was safe, the bomb squad remotely detonated the little Centurion. Move along, nothing to see here. It’s not like they walk among us in human form or anything. Yet.”

Today from Scott Ostler of the San Francisco Chronicle - this priceless tidbit - Knucklehead of the Week:
“The Giants (NY) were booed at halftime, at home, and Antrel Rolle said it wasn’t fair, because nobody boos soldiers returning home from the war in Iraq. “We risk ourselves out there on the field each and every day also,” Rolle said. A day later, Rolle’s agent read a prepared, stilted, sort-of-apology statement.
GI Joe and Jane responded with their own jointly prepared statement, read by their agent: “Mr. Rolle, we soldiers admire your courage. By the way, when you are playing football, how often does the field explode?”
Rolle is recovering from a heart attack he sustained after his paycheck was accidentally switched with that of an American soldier.”
*I’d link you to the remainder of the Ostler article, but it won’t be available until Tuesday.

Thanks for the post about the 8-inch robot! That is priceless! Not sure if I should laugh or cry over it (sad how stupid we are becoming). And my whole family Loves the TV show, so I have to send a link to the article to all of them ;D .
Thanks!
Dear Vicky - thank you for noticing this post. I think I’m the only BSG-er around!
