Day off tomorrow, yay! But amongst all the joys of sleeping in, shopping, and having dinner out with parents, I mustn't forget that it's the last season 1 AIM rewatch for [profile] redial_the_gate, tomorrow evening. Watching Within The Serpent's Grasp. Black ops SG-1 ftw (don't they look adorable in their little hats?). 

After next week's discussion of same, it'll be the redial hiatus. *sadface* Except, of course, we have stuff planned, so it's not going to be wholly silent. And of course there is the open invite for anyone to post season 1 meta at that time, too (if you want to do that, comment in the Season One Volunteer Post  with your meta idea and when you'd like to do it, so that we can give you posting access and so there's not more than one per day).

And I was looking through some old posts, and found one pondering a question to which I never did find out a definite answer. So, just in the interests of completism... does anyone know what the acronym CFB stands for? I found it in a Stargate fic (by Abby Eddey), in the context of Sam saying something along the lines of "I want this understood, C.F.B." (I think that [profile] shinysilvergrl's guess at the time, "Clear as a F*cking Bell" is probably right, but I'd love to know for certain.)

It most likely is "Clear as a F-ing Bell," given the context. I looked up in the Military Acronyms DB, and it listed "Configurable Function Block" and "Cipher Feedback," and then a general Google search also yielded "Canadian Forces Base".

*iz sad about Redial hiatus* But we don't have too long to wait until we start Season 2!

Yeah, I wiki'd it, and got:

- Canadian Forces Base
- Commission fédérale des banques
- Cipher feedback
- Circulating fluidized-bed
- Current feedback
- Clube de Futebol «Os Belenenses»
- Continental flood basalt
- Customer FeedBack

...None of which sound right. *g*

Didn't [livejournal.com profile] surrealis convince that author to start an LJ? If so, we should just ask the source about the acronym!

Aw, but I like the thrill of the finding out for myself. *g* (But I should post to her and say how much I liked her fic, though.)

Don't be sad! It's not long, we're much nicer than Skiffy. And we'll have fun in the meantime! Really!

I know, you guys have been wonderful! *hugs comm tightly* And we'll all be busy w/holiday stuff anyway, right?

Hey, I was meaning to ask you guys: maybe we should have a post for fanworks that aren't necessarily Season 1 episode tags, but are set in Season 1?

Oh! That's a cool idea! I'll mention it to the other mods! :-)

I have no idea what CFB means either.

So inordinately excited about the redial chat. :-)
(you should post the reminder on the site, pepper)

Yes! Will do, later - leaving work now. No time to write personal nouns, even! :D
