November 16, 2009: Look, I don’t have time for titles…I’m being charged by the keystroke here.

·

Aw c’mon!!!! Now a screw-up on the part of my internet provider has booted me off-line. The telus rep is hopeful I can be back online tomorrow. Tomorrow?! But today is TODAY!!!

As a result, I am painstakingly tapping out this entry on my iPHone. If I still had my Blackberry, I’d be hooped right about now. Well, even more hooped.

You have until midnight tonight to get those questions in for Peter Kelamis, SGU’s Adam Brody. And start reading next month’s book of the month club pick: The Misenchanted Sword! And clean up after yourselves! What am I, your maid?!

Good thing I uploaded the following video earlier today, otherwise you’d have all dropped by for nothing.

    The video is here for all us not-paying-by-the-kb readers.

    Thanks for advertising the talk on your blog — one very friendly fan from another department came by, bringing the grand total of audience members up to 6 people. …it’s a bad time of year to give talks!

    For the various readers who emailed me about recording my talk: I’ll be giving improved versions of this talk as time goes on; this was my first attempt with non-high-school students and was at times painfully bad. Once I smooth out content and pacing, I’ll record a better-practiced version and post it for y’all.

    For Peter,

    I hope you’re enjoying your experience on SGU. How did you get your start doing voice-over work? Is it more difficult than a regular acting gig where you can actually interact with your fellow performers?

    Hey Joe,

    I’m avoiding comments in the hope I can see Time without knowing every detail of the episode before watching it (wishful thinking).

    Was hoping to get your ideas and anyone else that feels like offering it on the below matter. It was an interesting exercise.

    Nath had picked up a wine barrel from a friend to use as a table on our decking. For some reason they decided to remove the metal rings before transporting so the barrel quickly went from being an object in which you can place items on to firewood and a set of really, really big and very, very dangerous Coits rings.

    He’d labelled some of the pieces so when he got home, placed all the pieces on the lawn and started to put them in order. It was then he realised he hadn’t numbered all of them. We noticed the pattern went 1 big plank, 2 small and the wood was aged differently so you could get an idea if the plank was in the right place.

    He started to re-assemble it. He asked me how I would go about it but my idea was quickly dismissed. He then asked for my physical help, but there’s only so many planks of wood I can hold and he got frustrated when I could only hold 3/4s of the planks (I thought that was pretty good!). After 1 collapse of the half built barrel and my offer to Google was rejected he started again. He had sweat dripping off his nose and was doing his best to support an entire barrel worth of vertical planks. Another collapse. I offered once again to Google. He was adamant this was going to be resolved without Google and without my help. So I went inside, got a dip, some crackers, a nice glass of Sauv Blanc, my Reader and went back to sit and watch him. Another collapse. He stormed out of the yard and into the garage so I couldn’t hear the barrage of abuse he was about to unleash and then I cracked.
    It started with a giggle and then…
    Uncontrollable laughter.
    I thought I had it under control after about 5 minutes, but then he would look at me, I’d lose it again and would have to suppress wine from coming out of my nose.

    While I was still in fits of giggles and on the receiving end of a glare that just made me laugh even harder, he came up with an idea which was identical to my idea except instead of glue, he said double sided tape. He started again using a different technique after deciding his previous idea was too much like mine and if it worked would have to admit I had been right. I asked about half way through, “How heavy is this going to be to try and move seeing as it’s in a completely impractical place now?”. He didn’t appreciate that. Another collapse. More uncontrollable laughter. Eventually it got dark so he gave up.

    Last night I came home from work to find a fully assembled barrel! And yes, it was the same barrel.

    Before I tell you how he did it (if you’re even interested!), I ask you Joe and others reading this, how would you go about re-assembling a wine barrel?

    @ Narelle – Ha! Funny story! I have a few ‘husband’ stories like that, like the time he tried to make a cat cage out of wood and screening for our kitties so they could go outside, and the thing had gaps in it so big an elephant could fit through! I SO wish I had taken pictures of that!

    As far as the barrel – no idea. A while ago I made a stained glass lamp shade, and if I remember correctly, I laid all the pieces out in a circle, and brought up the pieces in the 3, 6, 9, 12 o’clock positions, secured them, then fitted the rest in place. But that was a different sort of thing altogether.

    Joe – just a few quick questions for Peter Kelamis:

    1. Stand-up or working on a series – which is more challenging?

    2. Hockey or Aussie Rules?

    3. Hardest accent to pull off?

    4. Boxers, or briefs?

    Gotta run – hubby just got home and is demanding my attention, like a puppy! 😀

    @Narelle: The wine-barrel problem reminds me very much of both physics and calculus. (Or pre-cal, or trig. . . .)

    I suck at both physics and calculus (and trig). However, I’m intrigued by how Nath finally got the thing back together. Until I read the answer, though, I might be laughing as hard as you were. — Could it be that he finally gave in and googled? That, and stopping to ask for directions when lost, are two of my most basic approaches to the practicalities of life. *w*

    — Oh no, now I’ve caught your uncontrollable giggles. Thanks for the funny story.

    @Joe: Clean up after myself?! That’s what former big-roller, now-discredited Wall Street players are for. You can tell who NOT to hire when you get shifty looks in response to the statement that you *will* be filing wage/earnings forms with the IRS. (HAHahahahahahah. . . .

    Dear Mr. Kelamis,

    Your character, Brody has grown on me as SGU goes on. Even though it seems like the Eli Wallace character is the joker of the show, I really enjoyed your various Kino-related scenes-your good bye recording, when you put on the suits and tripped, and the intercomm chatter with the Linda Park character. My question is, do you draw more from yourself in these scenes or more from the guidance of the script and crew?

    Ok dang. That’s a quick deadline. So let me shoot ot a few questions.

    1. If you were in control of your character for an episode (like you could write for him), what would you do with him. Would you have him visit his family, would you have him be the hero of the story, would you have him go to dark places?

    2. If you were actually Brody and you yourself got stranded on the destiny, how do you think you wouldd react. Would you have a nervous breakdown, would you keep your head, would you try to ease the situation using your comedic gift?

    3. Out of all the SGU characters, who do you admire most? Who would you want to be like and why would you want to be like them?

    Oh and thank you Peter for taking the time to do this q&a!!

    And thank you Mr. M for offering us the opportunity.

    Goodnight fellow commenters a Mr. M,

    Thanks so much,

    2. Did Brody leave family behind?

    3. Who’s the toughest scientist on Destiny?

    4. What have you found most surprising about working on Universe?

    5. What book are you reading at the moment? Or the last great book you read.

    About the video thing: The iPhone doesn’t support Adobe Flash, which is the software platform that most in-browser video services use. However, due to the popularity of YouTube, Apple has found a way to make that specific service work with the iPhone.

    Thank you for sharing the video! Was that the silhouette of Alex Pappas there in the foreground?

    Really enjoyed watching ‘Time’ last week. Interesting how the Destiny appears to know before the crew does what is needed — she even made sure to stay longer than the (up to now normal) 12 hours at the planet.

    But you have to wonder how long they time looped for a human body to be reduced to a skeleton. Unless…the Destiny isn’t the first ship with humans aboard to visit that planet.

    Looking forward to this week’s episode, ‘Life.’

    Will be brief. Had a pretty crappy week, but feeling in a better mood today so will post quickly before it goes away.
    Finally saw the “Time” episode, though it was awesome, had to watch it twice. Like mind picking episodes, great shoots, like the visuals, great story. Like the jungle panic shoots, the night vision with the creatures, the reflection capsules i.e Eli, TJ, Greer, Scott alone both time when everybody else is dead. Could go on for a while.
    There a nice article on the Space channel site called The mind-frak that was “stargate universe: time” by Pix Princss under the SGU forum. Think you should read, you’ll probably like it.
    Curious to see your work…not that I’m comparing… well you probably know what I mean…

    (p.s would have like to post this comment for today’s blog, but it’s not up yet and I”m will unfortunately be out of town til Friday.)

    Hey, you can use your IPhone to provide a internet connection to your laptop by activating the “Internet Tethering” option in General -> Network -> Internet Tethering. Just plug the IPhone with the regular cable. windows automaticly use it as an internet connection so i assume that is the same thing with a MAC.

    Have Fun !

    P.S.: I don’t know if Bell allow it but Rogers do.

    Oh, how fun, wait i have been to your blog before, (posted previously on the nov19 blog) well in any case, this looks fun. screaming seems like something I would enjoy.

    glad you’ve got such a good crew together, although as far as characters on SGU I can’t say I am a big fan of lieutenant scott or Chloe. I don’t quite understand how they ended up together. Had some personal experiences similar to what Eli (these are just your characters I am talking about) is experiencing in his relationship with chloe. broke all ties with the chick and a year and a half later I ran into her and she is married and super preggers (this was at an anime convention, specifically she was in the last week of her final term and was going to the hospital the next day). Wouldn’t a pregnancy on the Destiny be something to go for? eh you’ve got it all figured out anyway…although that would destroy eli, and Lt. scott would just be repeating his past mistakes. you’ve tossed this around already I am sure so I will shut up now…

    The new Stargate Universe series lacks. The soap opera human aspect has gone too far. This is prime time television and sexual scenery has no place in science fiction, just for the sake of entertainment- come on. This series does not deserve to use the Stargate name. I keep waiting for action and science fiction special effects – a resolution to a story line. I find the mind puzzles a bit interesting;however, the human soap opera story line has become old in a hurry to me and does not hold a candle to Stargate and Atlantis action. I do not think you will last long with the current approach. Too bad
