Just started the week with prep for "Allies". Nope, can't say anything about that. At the end of the day, as usual, I went for a long training session at Franco's Kickboxing. 3 out of 4 fighters, won their fights last Friday night. All the wins were by KO in the first round!! Yes, team Franco rocks! The opponents were tough ones as well. It is nice to see people that you train and spar with achieve their goals in such a dramatic fashion. All of the fights were pro debuts. The names are mentioned on the "ASK BAMBAM" thread for those who are interested. After training, I went to see a late show........"The Exorcism of Emily Rose". Wow. Powerful. I originally went to see it because it was shot in and around Vancouver, but I enjoyed every minute of it for its own merits. If you feel like being scared, or at least creeped out a little bit, check it out........apparently its a true story. Last week we came back from our 1 week hiatus with a bang. We finished shooting "The Long Goodbye", and what a great way to finish off the episode. That rehearsal Ivon saw out his window paid off. When you all see the episode, you will know exactly what I'm speaking of! Weir is seen in a very different light on this one..............you will love it! Paul attended a convention in Atlanta during the hiatus..........apparently he was asked about head butts!! We are still trying but can't seem to find the correct place to put one in any show so far..............the season isn't over yet. I'm very happy with the responses I am getting on the thread regarding the sparring scene from "Conversion". Joe and Rachel did a great amount of work preparing for that one for sure. Shooting that fight was special for us because Rachel's parents were on set watching everything. It was the first time they saw her do her stuff....fight, I mean. Very proud parents they were that day, as they no doubt are everyday. I am particularily happy with the editing done for this fight..............Judy, take a bow! Don't worry folks...........more on its way...........more fighting......more stunts............more drama.........wow, I sound like an ad for something. I'm not. Ivon tells me the stunt piece for the special features is coming along smashingly........no pun. Myself, Rachel, and Jason just did an interview for "Inside Kung Fu" magazine................it won't be out until January, I think. Look for that one, should be cool. The cast and crews of both shows all came out for the 1rst annual Stargate SG1/Atlantis softball tourney on the weekend...................I don't know who ended up winning as I was late. I was more concerned with our producer at the bar-b-que, or rather the hamburgers he was cooking. All had a good time together. We've become a very large family. Sniff...............shooting season is almost over............sniff. What to do..............? Conventions are fun............I've only been invited to the April 2006 one to far......................that's in Vancouver. Sounds like a good time. All of you out there should come and hang out. Prepare your questions now. I'll take you all out for dinner later after the show.......................just kidding. Wow, it's late!! Where does the time go?! Goodnight! One more thing..............Thanx for the ice cream last Friday Joe!!!! Ok..........now..........Goodnight!!
