Well, the old timer is back home and resting comfortably. He's going to be taking it easy easier for a while. That means no playing or rough housing or going up stairs or jumping - none of which he used to do anyway, but it's good to know. Thanks for all the well-wishes! A few…
August 8, 2016: The Seven Samurai! Who’s the betrayer? And why you should be watching Dark Matter!

August 3, 2016: Looking ahead to “We Should Have Seen This Coming”! Looking back on “We Voted Not To Space You”!
Hey, notice a pattern with the episode titles? Yes, they're drawn from actual lines of scripted dialogue. I say "scripted dialogue" instead of just plain "dialogue" because, in a couple of cases, the "scripted dialogue" didn't make the final cut.
