deird_ljWhen my New World Order takes control of the galaxy, people's names will have to be pronounced exactly as I expect them to sound based on the spelling.
After a year and a half of seeing "Dr Rodney McKay" in print, I'm now having to adjust to the fact that his name does not rhyme with "sigh" (as all previous "McKay"s I've known did), but instead rhymes with "say".
This is confusing me...

Yeah, it was fun. Though the queues sucked. Poor David had such long lines for autographs and photos...! He was a very good sport though. Check out my FB profile pic... :-D

much warmer and friendlier too. And a good sport- hour after hour of signing, smiling for photos, talking to a packed room, being made to try vegemite on stage....
