Photos of Earth IV

You'll never get this one...
.
Okay STOP! Goodness. (Hmmm, why DID I ask that question?...)
.
I'm pretty darn sure (85%) that I'll be going to Pegasus 2 in London, February 3-4. Negotiations continue!!!
.
I look forward to meeting the North European / UK Sector of "The Crazy New Worldwide Phenomenon known as Zelenkism" as it continues its march around the world. Look forward to meeting you!

"I Wouldn't Belong to Any Club That Would Have Me"

Well would'ja lookit that. The "David Nykl Yahoo! Group" now exists. Sounds a bit enthusiastic. What's it mean?...
.
What do Yahoo Groups do?
.
What?
.

Kde jste, znalci českých vesnic?

Nice work Carolyn. Just goes to show that the best knowledge of small southern bohemian towns comes from Wichita, Kansas. Partial points for the guess of "Southern Bohemia" and "taken from a church somewhere". Although I also like "from a train window" (man, those trains really FLY...) and Vienna, Czech Republic. :-)
.
Did any of you turn up anything interesting about CZ in your searches?

What's Up With All the Squirrels, Piranhas, and Lemmings?


Sometimes it really is a faraway place - the Earth Internet. Particularly certain corners of it. I hope it all turns out...
.
At the risk of turning this into a trivia site I'll post ONE MORE and then maybe NO MORE of these pictures. This is meant to be a SERIOUS and NECESSARY communication tool and not some place you go to while away time while bored at work.
.
waitaminit...
.
The winner of THIS trivia picture guess (remember - I want exact location) gets yet another super-ultra durable Zelenka Picture, printed on extra absorbent paper, featuring eyes-that-follow-you-around-the-room-in-a-creepy-yet-strangely-endearing way, and a completely non-official Dollar Store Knock Off Stargate Party hat. How can you turn that down.
.
Now let me see.... how about this one:

Photos of Earth III


Last one.
This is fun. Okay, for real this time - whoever gets this one gets a Zelenka SuperPhoto Deluxe, complete with signature, featuring eyes-that-follow-you-around-the-room and extra bonus stargate party hat. For real.
.
If you guess correctly, you have to email me a mailing address though, so I can send it to you.
.
I'll leave this one open for a few days...
.
Curious...

I got this picture in a recent databurst from a friend in the Maltese Government. Can you guess where it is?

Technician Chuck Raised by Wolves


Most people don't know this, but our very own Chucknician - the glue that holds the control room together - was raised by wolves in a suburban Toronto park. This well guarded secret was let out during the annual Atlantis Christmas party where Chuck and Dr Vogel got notoriously drunk and the truth was let out. Upon checking his personal records (you wouldn't believe the passwords I have access to...) I found his SGC application indicated he "...had a close-knit childhood" and "moved around quite a bit". I tried to approach him on the subject the next day but he just growled and said something like "You don';t know what it's like..." I thought it best to just leave it there.
.
Just goes to show you may think you know who you're working with -- but do you really?...
