It's not an article, it's an interactive photo which will probably take forever to load on your dial-up.

Got to wonder if there's some misinformation there, especially about the final cylon not being at the table. Who else could it be? De'Anna's words when she spoke to the final five are key I think, as I can't imagine her speaking like that to any of the other four.

It would have to be someone she knows and has some respect for, so iI find it hard to look further than Adama, Roslin or Starbuck.

Hey, Montressor, I never noticed the Poe in your sig before. Has that always been there? Great moment!!!!!

It's been there for about a month or two, I think. Yeah, it's awesome. That tale is where I get the name from, obviously, and Montressor's response is - for me - one of the most chilling in literature.

Meh, that was just a cylon bluff...either that, or Adama is the most inept enemy agent of all time... ;)

Beorn noted the quote for the first time last night.

I have not read the story, so the comment is beyond me. I am curious if it makes sense to those who have...

Ok, need some input. I haven't watched any of it. My husband loves it and Barnes & Noble has a buy 2 get the 3rd free deal going on.

How many seasons have there been? It's a little confusing.......there is season 2, then 2.5 and then season 3 (He already has season 1). What is "Razor"? And then there is Battlestar Galactica, The Mini-series!

:? Can someone please clarify?

Season One includes the miniseries. Season Two was split into "2" and "2.5". Season Three won't be out until 03/25/08. "Razor" is a miniseries/2 episodes from Season 4.

It would be too fun for them to make it true. I'm not sure they'll be able to resist. :lol:

Seasons 2 & 2.5 have been ordered. They'll be tucked away for Valentine's Day. Once again, many thanks!

If you mean the quote from Poe, all I can hazard a guess at is - Fortunato is in fancy-dress as a jester throughout the story. If it's the joker, as in the Batman Joker, I can only guess that some Batman comic or other referenced the Poe story and drew links between Fortunato's costume and the Joker. Though, I think it's a safe bet the Joker would rather act like Montressor than Fortunato.

No...
He is not referring to a comic.
It must just be his off the wall processing.
Thanks.
