Breaking Battlestar Galactica news regarding Season Four

News just came out that the SciFi Channel has just order 22 episodes of Battlestar Galactica for the Season 4, nine more than originally planned.  With that many shows, I understand this upcoming season will be the final year of the series.  With Tricia Helfer signed to star in new pilot on Fox call Them and Katee Sachoff set to be in the new NBC series Bionic Women, the end of the series looks more like a reality.  Do not be too fracken sad just yet.  Executive Producer David Eick and Creator/Producer Ronald Moore are in the process of creating a prequel to BSG called Caprica, when it yet to be determined.  Also being talked about is a BSG movie to fill in between seasons three and four.  The season three finale airs March 25 and season for is not scheduled to air for at least a year.

 

Wow, 22 episodes that is spectacular.  However, I have a heavy heart that one of the most cleverly written dramas on television is about to end.  Like any die hard fan, I wish the series could go on forever.  But I guess all good things must come to an end.  As I mentioned above, I have hope that the BSG universe will continue in the form of the prequel Caprica.   I just hope that NBC/Universal (parent of SciFi Channel) is smart enough to give the new series the green light.  Good news is the movie is a go…Yeah.  It cannot get on the air soon enough. Well since season four will be the last season, I just hope they find the lost 13th Tribe and it goes out with a bang.

The Perfect Accessory for Every Beer Drinker – the Beer Launch

If you are like me, you like a good cold beer once in a while, but are normally too preoccupied (by the TV) to get up and get it.  Well, John Cornwell, an inventor, might have invented the answer to our prayers – a way to make the beer come to you.  (And who said that laziness isn’t the mother of all inventions?) 

 

Wow, that is what we all have thought from time to time.  With that simple question Mr. Cornwell begin a quest to answer it with an invention – the Beer Launch.  How does the Beer Launch work?  The Beer Launch, which can hold a case of can beer, pulls one can from the 10 in the magazine (the other 14 are in reserve) sitting in the refrigerator and puts it into a catapult mounted on top of the fridge.  The catapult then rotates until it is properly aligned with your hand and launches. 

 

Apparently targeting is still a little questionable, having pelted the head instead of hitting the beer drinking hand.  But
Cornwall assures that a little practice cures this problem.  Or he could have been hit one too many times and doesn’t notice anymore!

 

Still the thought of a cold frosty beverage without leaving my chair is an attractive one despite the risks.  If I could talk my wife into buying one for me for Father’s Day, I can stop training the twins to open the fridge and bring me a beer!  Cheers!
