July 6, 2023: Stargate SG-1 outtakes!
Today, I dropped off about a dozen more cassettes for digital transfer, dailies covering two more episodes: Revisions and It’s Good to be King. Meanwhile, working my way through the footage for Window of Opportunity and Wormhole X-Treme and came across a few more great outtakes…

July 3, 2023: Fasting!
Intrigued by all this talk about the benefits of fasting, Akemi and I embarked on our respective fasts yesterday. I felt better prepared because I tend to, inadvertently, practice intermittent fasting – not eating after 6 p.m., skipping breakfast, and then not eating again until 11:00 lunch the next day – roughly 17 hours. Akemi, on the other hand, always eats a light early dinner, but gets downright hangry if she misses her carb-laden breakfast of either french toast or croissant.
So, I stopped eating after yesterday’s lunch, around 11:30 p.m., while Akemi had a final snack (muffin) at 2:30 p.m. When dinner rolled around, I was feeling pretty good – and not all that hungry. We usually eat big lunches and light dinners (she has miso soup while I’ll usually go with a couple of eggs followed by some kefir and blueberries). Around bedtime, I was still feeling fine while she was definitely feeling the hunger pangs.
The next morning, to my surprise, Akemi had elected to forego breakfast, determined to stick it out – until lunch time at least. I was my usual unhungry morning self. But as we crept past 10:00 a.m., hunger got the best of Akemi and she caved, satisfied with her 21 stretch, and enjoyed two eggs and a cup and kimchee pancake containing a cup and a half of kimchee.
Unlike Akemi, I wasn’t feeling overwhelmingly hungry, weak, or dizzy, so elected to push back lunch and join my wife on a shopping trip. Throughout, she was worried that, in my weakened state, I would pass out under the hot sun – but I’m pleased to report I made it there and back with minimal discomfort. BUT, by around 1:30 p.m., I started feeling hungry. I suppose I could have stuck it out longer but I didn’t want to go to bed after a huge dinner, and the prospect of waiting until tomorrow at lunch to eat was problematic insofar as I have a zoom call scheduled for 10:00 a.m. and I suspected I would not be at my best.
So I ended my fast at 27 hours with a half rack of lamb ribs, sauerkraut, a half an avocado, and some dark chocolat.e And for dinner tonight, it was some kefir, manuka honey, blueberries and dark chocolate.
I’m feeling pretty good. But exhausted. Earlier today, I figured that in my food-deprived state, I’d be unable to focus but, to my surprise, I was pretty sharp this morning, managing to write the tease to my new pilot.
Anyone else tried fasting, intermittent or otherwise? How’d you do?
Today’s Yes/No…

June 27, 2023: Behind the scenes on Window of Opportunity – Daniel Jackson edition!
So I’ve been going through dailies from my old Stargate days, specifically, recently, footage from production on two episodes: Wormhole X-Treme and Window of Opportunity. I’ve been pulling various clips and posting them for fans to enjoy but, as I said yesterday, for more meaningful, dedicated clips, I’ve decided to send them to individual cast members so that they can have the exclusive. Well, yesterday, I sent Michael Shanks three Daniel-centric clips and he quickly posted them over on his twitter account (over at https://twitter.com/MichaelShanks – As if you didn’t already know) so I repost them here for your viewing pleasure…
