2/10/06 Battlestar Galactica

Anyone else find this to be another episode with parallels to today. There were some lines in it that sounded very familiar. Particularly the bit about not negotiating with terrorists.

"Just give them what they want!" , "What if the terrorists are right?"

sound like things we hear a lot these days. When i heard "Just give them what they want!" it really reminded me of the way people react to hostage takings in Iraq today. In fact I think Jill Carroll said the same thing in a video the same day this was aired. That is something that immediately struck me.

Anyone else think the widow was a Cindy Sheehan type of tragic character. One who has had a loss but then goes off the deep end taking out her anger on the military and the government.

I'm sure they'll release them. Thankfully, I have them on my DVR. And they show them in HD on the Universal Channel in 16x9.

It's the only thing I watch on TV. Period. I don't even watch news anymore. BSG and MST3K tapes.

Y'all might like this. I was watching my DVDs again and did a bit of research
Here's a screen cap of, "Fragged."

Notice Baltar's rifle?
Here's the Beretta Storm:

I looked at the credits and didn't find Beretta mentioned. Is this the same weapon?
