About Ramblings of a Hopeless Khowaga

Welcome to my Web site. My name is Chris, and I’ll be your host. I\'m an opinionated, snarky, gay academic with a predilection for the history, the Arab world, languages, photography, food, and music. I live in Austin, Texas. You can read more about me, learn 100 random things about me, and if you’re wondering what the heck a khowaga is, click here. Feel free to browse, read, and leave comments!

In Galactica, It’s Politics as Usual. Or Is It?

Am I allowed to have a moment of completely unwarranted smug satisfaction over the fact that The New York Times has a piece about Battlestar Galactica today (In Galactica, It’s Politics as Usual. Or Is It?) that echoes a number of the comments I made in a posting two weeks ago (Musings about a World on Fire)?  It’s nice to see the press giving some recognition to a show that’s largely been avoided.  It’s also nice to have the New York Times agree with me.  I’m sure it was my column that made them take another look (I almost kept a straight face while I wrote that!!).  It’s also nice that the plot has been dug out of the hole it left itself in at the end of last season, and that we’re starting to move forward again.  I’m all for allegory, but let’s get the story moving already!
OK.  Enough unwarranted glee.  Happy Thursday.
