Casual Fridays
The Colonial Ministry of Information offers these tips for detecting Cylons around the workplace.
- Do they ask questions about classified subjects?
- Do they seem unusually strong, smart or self-assured?
- Do they say God instead of Gods?
- Have you seen them before, but you know it's not the same person?
- Do you see them hanging around secured or restricted areas?
- Do they seem to hear music that no one else can hear?
- Do they seem unusually fearless, as if death has no meaning for them?
- Do they exhibit sociopathic behavior around other humans, especially defenseless children?
- Are they unusually adept, almost empathic, with machines?
- Does their spine glow red when they get... excited?
UPDATE: Frak me... that was it? I expected more. I feel teased. Well, I guess that they couldn't exactly give it all away in the first episode. And no, NVH, I haven't gotten the poster - yet.




Less than nine hours to go... :-)

Here in the UK they are thought to be responsible for undermining English language studies in colleges by asking students: 1.Why is "Abbreviation" such a long word?
2.Why do lexicographers think it necessary to include "Superfluous" in all authoritative English dictionaries?

No, J. but I was first alerted about these people when I caught a glimpse of someone of pensionable age in my shaving mirror, and noted that on this poster it says:
"Have you seen them before, but you know it's not the same person?"

Everyone is waiting, J... Please answer NVH's question. Did you or did you not buy that poster? 5th Amendment does not apply.
