After much hassle I finally managed to get hold of a version of BSG:Razor the two hour special that tells the story of what happened aboard the Pegasus somewhere halfway through season two.

I’m not one to talk to loftily when it comes to the subject of alcohol, like just about every other person in the whole damn country it has been my main vice since my mid-teens, it matters not that I’m not officially supposed to touch the stuff for some reason I always come back to [...]

The day before last you found yourself in someone elses car, me still wondering at my defeat at the hands of what we could laughingly and not without a trace of irony term the simple plurality.
