Everytime Stallion tried to engage in battle with Languatron, though, it went nowhere. To him, I was just another Universal Executive, or Neuromancer in disguise. I had to take a different approach.But what?During this time, heated rumors about Galactica’s revival prospects were flying all over the place, and everyone on the board was poring over ...

Languatronwas a lone wolf. That is to say, some people agreed with some of the points he made, but nobody interacted with him on a personal basis. He didn’t seem to have any recognizably human characteristics – it was all business with him all the time, and his business was complaining about what was happening ... Read more

(Editorialnote: Perhaps this is boring you. But I'm enjoying writing it. So off I go, knowing that comments will not be thick on the ground.)When I entered the Battlestar Galactica discussion, I didn’t use my real name, of course. I didn’t want these people to know who I was or where I lived. But I, ... Read more

Thedictionary defines a “languatron” as “a Colonial device that acts as a translator, capable of translating speech in real-time.”No, wait. That’s not the dictionary.

Sincewe're starting over somewhat, I thought it might be a good idea to revisit where the whole "Stallion Cornell" name came from.It started out when I was stuck. And being stuck is no fun.I don’t have to tell you that, but we have to accept that as common ground if we’re going to get anywhere ... Read more

Goodevening.Real life has been an absolute nightmare for the past few months, but I wanted to relaunch this blog in style. Rest assured, I'm going to be posting regularly again. I don't know if anyone cares at this point, but here it is.Blogger has been a major pain in the tuckus, and they stopped supporting ... Read more

Itry to stay apolitical on Facebook. I really try. But the whole global warming thing gets my dander up, and once my dander is vertical, all bets are off. The most recent dustup concerned this link, which demonstrates the blatant hypocrisy of the global warming folks. If you’re too lazy to click, then allow ... Read more

Yes,this blog is neglected. Facebook is essentially consuming any recreational Internet time I have, and I'm professionally busy writing a bunch of stuff that's appearing all over the Internet, but not under my own name. (Actually, this isn't my own name, either, but you know what I mean.) Anyway, look for me elsewhere as I ... Read more

Harry Reid referred to President Obama's light-skinned blackness and his lack of a "Negro" accent. Trent Lott, on the other hand, said nice things about a 100-year-old Strom Thurmond at his final birthday party without mentioning race at all.
