I have a question of great importance: if you could have any Star Trek actor announce the birth of your child to the world, who would it be? I'm leaning towards John de Lancie or Avery Brooks, though of course, it'd be hard to go past William Shatner. "It's a ba-by...girl.......Spoooooooock."

Cause Gerard and Lyn-Z have set a high bar when Levar Burton's twitter is how the news of Bandit Lee Way's birth was revealed (Mikey just retweeting Levar's message made me lol - laziest new uncle ever). And confirmation that Bandit was a girl was apparently made by Frances Bean Cobain. How's that for making an auspicious entrance into the world?

I'm amusing myself at the thought of a band made up of the offspring of bandom folks - Bandit, Bronx, Hero, Danger (Keaton Lazarra going by his middle name), Vio?let (keeping the family tradition of random punctuation) and Wikipedia Nonsense (she changed her name because she didn't want to stand out with a boringly 'normal' name).

Cause I need amusement - I'm on the mend from this cold (slowly), but somehow, despite not having been to the gym or swimming since the weekend, I've managed to hurt my back. It's so stiff today, I can't bend properly, and I don't know why :(

And why did my sister email me saying "You didn 't say anything about there being a stargate altlantis movie!!!" (actual copy and paste, abusing punctuation runs in the family). What is she talking about (man I've completely fallen out of that fandom, apparently), and why did it go to spam mail?

... I had no idea Keaton's middle name is Danger. My God, but I love every single person in all of these bands and their ridiculous baby name choices. :DDDDDDDDDDDD

Keaton Ari Danger Lazarra, allegedly :D

Contrast to their peers, a band made up of offspring of Nsync and Backstreet Boys: Briahna, Baylee, Mason and James.

John de Lancie will do it for $20. He'll also phone anyone you like for $20.

that was totally one of the reasons I thought of him :)

[cool-rain-kiss.livejournal.com]

Ahahaha I love it.

That would be an epic battle of the bands, oh my God.

Cheap and easy, babe, cheap and easy.

Saturday night movies, right?

I only just realised: Howie joked about naming James after AJ (Alexander James), but he also named his kid after Lance Bass (actually James Lance Bass). Nevermind me :)

The best part is that the boybands offspring's band is actually the best punk-hardcore-thrash-metal band that anyone's heard in twenty years, while the r'n'b-pop stylings of the Misnamed Ones make tween girls swoon.

yeah, which time do you prefer - 7pm (we could grab something to eat beforehand and dessert after) or 8:45pm?

[iibnf.livejournal.com]

I'd prefer 7pm. Either are okay, but 8.45 is getting a tad late afterwards.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

yeah, that's what I was thinking, but it just means eating earlyish, so I thought I'd give the options :)

oooh, we could always have a drink first! what time does Marble Bar open on Saturday?

[sperrywink]

I lol'ed that Mikey just retwittered Levar Burton's message too.

If you were gonna place a bet on how the baby's birth would be announced, NO ONE would have picked what actually happened :D

[iibnf.livejournal.com]

Between 3 and 5, kinda randomly. I'll phone later.

I'd love Wil Wheaton to announce my kids birth to the whole of Geekdom on the internet, but I love Wil like whoa.

Also, did you know that ALazz actually CALLS HIS KID DANGER? Not a joke, my friend.

You know, I'd thought that I'd hear about the new baby via one of my friends who are into bandom, I never expected to find out about it via Levar Burton *g*. Very bizarre ;-).

The SGA movies (IIRC there will be 2) were announced when they announced the cancellation of the show. It will just like what they did with SG1.

Everything about the announcement of Bandit's birth is pretty amazing!

Who are hero and violet?

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I think I knew they were talking about it, didn't realise it was actually happening :)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Hero is Disashi Lumumba-Kasongo's son and Violet is Steve Righ?'s daughter :)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

oh, of course he does. Oh, Adam /o\

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I still want to know how he and Gerard became friends :D
