  • We won’t mention Ivanova’s huge… tracts of land.

    I can’t believe I’d never heard of Babylon Five’s Flying Circus. Where have I been all this time?

    SINCLAIR: One day John, all this will be yours.
    SHERIDAN: You mean the curtains?
    SINCLAIR: No, not the curtains. All that you can see. That will be your kingdom.
    SHERIDAN: But I don’t want any of that.
    SINCLAIR: Listen up, I built this space station up from nothing. All there was was space. All the captains said it was daft to build a station in space, but I built it all the same, just to show them. It blew up, so I built a second one. That one blew up. And a third one, and that one blew up. I built a fourth one, that one disappeared in time. But the fifth one stayed. And that’s what you’re going to get John, the strongest space station in these sectors.
    SHERIDAN: But I don’t want any of that. I’d rather…
    SINCLAIR: Rather what?
    SHERIDAN: I’d rather … just … SING!

  • Isn’t that sweet?

    Look what somebody sent me!

    (The ducks, not the sticker. That came from someone else, but I couldn’t resist putting it into the picture.)

    So, do you think she’s trying to tell me I need sweetening up? Or that I should be trying to get my ducks in a row? What do you suppose the meaning is, here…?
