Torment of Tantalus Riffs


"Look! Up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's Superma....wait...no....It pretty floating elements!! Yaaaaaaaay!!!!"

Ernest couldn't help but smile when both Daniel and Katherine fell for the old "Look! What's that?!" trick.

It wasn't Daniel's fault. Everyone knew that. In Archaeology school they always tought him "When in Rome, do as Romans do". However, they could not supress an obvious stare when Daniel, mistaking Ernest for a native, began to strip his clothes.

"Teal'C! This is great! And you've never told anyone about the DHD's portable TV feature?"
"I have not."
"This is so cool! Look at this! It....whoa....it even gets the Playboy Channel. Let's not let the colonel see this one...he'd be just way too overjoyed."

Daniel was *happy* to see Katherine, there was no disputing that. However, being as polite as he was, he neglected to inform her that she was choaking him to death, and died as a result.

" I have determined that the writings on the wall are, infact, ancient alien songs. I translated one and this is how it goes:
I'm an alien
I'm an alien
I'm an alien
I'm a really big alien
And you're not
Such findings have astounded me. I believe it to be the very first attempt at a humourous song for this species. Their humour is very light, however, and I feel that the aliens may have been taking advantage of the fact that the other three races simply could not read their language.
