    Well Hello Sweetie! Any fan of the Doctor is a friend of mine.
  • FELLOW WHOVIANS!!!

    Sorry... got excited, since I was wearing my Doctor Who shirt earlier. :)

    I'm really only familiar with the new series (2005-present), but I've seen every episode at least once (and some of them way more than once...)

    You listed "Sci Fi", yet you didn't include Battlestar Galactica.



    This friendship would have never worked.

    Hi

    I'm a massive Firefly and Game of Thrones fan. I also love books, animals and tea. I can't crochet but I do knit and embroider. Can I join you? I really want to increase my fitness levels so it would be great to have a knowledgeable friend with brains I can pick!

    I never thought that anybody could love a Kindle as much as I love mine... I sleep with mine too, and I think my husband is jealous of it. Now, I have to agree with the Sci Fi… if Stargate (SG-1, Atlantis, and Universe) and Battlestar Galactica are not included… I don’t know. Now a question; a) Dark Hunters , b) Ender's Game, c) Mortal instruments, or d) 50 shades?

    @Lynnsr1 - C & D but only because I haven't read A or B yet. Just give me some time.

    I am a geek! I love Stargate SG1 and Atlantis, think Jason Momoa is the sexiest man alive :). Love ScyFy channel, Warehouse 13, the BBC version of Being Human, Grimm and so many others. I have only watched a few Dr Who episodes but liked them (don't have enough time).

    I also used to play WoW - had to quit due to time but loved and miss it.

    Also, I live in Indianapolis and have GenCon here every year!!!

    Hummmm, C) is a great answer, but D) could be a deal breaker.... On the other hand I could hug you just because you mentioned Jason Momoa (*sigh*). Add Dark Hunters and Ender's Game to your "to read" list and it will even things out. :wink:

    I am a bibliophile who was raised on Star Trek and Star wars, and loves firefly and Dr. Who. I'm a DC nerd and play an obscene amount of time playing video games (Mass Effect 2 right now) while loving on my two feline fur balls and drinking tea. And when I'n not doing that I work on cross stitch projects. I think I fit. Friend up!

    Hi and welcome! Feel free to add me, I need someone to laugh at my dorky jokes! Just hopped on the Dr. Who wagon and I love the series! Battlestar Galactica is amazing too. So many indoor cycling sessions were accompanied by the likes of Starbuck and Captain Odama :)
