Hello Colonials!

Another weekend & another Hero award to pass along...but first of all news from the BIG FISH of Conventions...of course that being the San Diego ComicCon beginning this coming week.

You may have seen Richard Hatch's schedule that I posted to all of you these past weeks, but as a reminder I'm posting a message directly from his fanpage on facebook as a reinforcer!

Unfortuantely, I'm not making it down to the Con this year, but last year I sat in with Richard for the duration and we had a blast with the fans.

So be sure to go see him and have a chat & be sure to NOT miss those panels...some very special guests will be joining him for his 35th anniversary panel.

Of course, this message would not be complete without our Hero award....and this one goes out to a very pivotal character in the reimagined series....and as often as not, this character was full of surprises and one who stirred as much controversy as Richard's character...Tom Zarek...did on the show.

Hero of Villian?

It depended upon your point of view...as much as real world politics is concerned & I will borrow the phrase "One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter" that particular description is aptly applied here.

As much as his character fostered political commentary and discussion....the actor himself contributed mightily to the BSG universerse and we honor him today.

Alessandro Juliani everyone!

So Say We All!
