that would be U.S. Air Force Chief of Staff General John P. Jumper?

i can't name the episode, but he made a guest appearance on sg1 fairly soon after he became chief. the former chief had made a guest appearance earlier and story has it that this was one of his priorities after getting his promotion.

apparently sg1 works closely with the air force in what they should and shouldn't do (for realism) but of course it is a SciFi TV show, so i doubt they worry too much about things like that. i do know that richard dean anderson just recieved some kind of award from the air forces for his work on the show, so maybe there is something to that. i also think i read that sg1 was the first "anything" to use that spiffy new air force logo you have.

From what I understand, apparently everyone expected me to show up at C3 looking like my picture on page 1. That prompted me to come up with some new pictures to post. Unfortunately, I can't find the ones I wanted--they're buried underneath all the SW junk somewhere. So, here are some others.

I didn't realize it until now, but this must have been me in my Obi-Skel Kenobi phase. Or maybe it was Qui-Gon Skel. Either way, the full beard didn't last long. Actually, that's the day I got my hair cut

The last pic is at C3, around 4:30 am in the Lucas line.

I was also going to update my profile, but it still holds true. So I'll add some new trivia. I've found I enjoy dicovering random bands that I like, including Skinny Puppy, Rasputina, and Scissor Sisters. I also enjoy the written works of Neil Gaiman and Edward Gorey.
