Don't know about the rest but the "are you coming on to me" line was
in Syzygy, before the Baywatch episode. At that time Scully was also
spewing a lot of scientific talk.

Why would x-files want to rip off Baywatch when they can ripoff previous
x-file shows?

You are either a dumb Okie or you misunderstood that this is a civil
group. If you are the later I apologize, if you are the former you will
not understand this sentence and it does not matter.

BTW, what is it you really want to say.

Three points.

One. How you can equate a show the quality of X-files to to a show that has no
other purpose than to crank out bathing suit babes is beyond me. (Don't get me
wrong. I have great appreciation for the by-product of Bay Watch)

Two. This was civil, but now it is not. I was not born in Oklahoma, so I
cannot consider myself an Okie, but I would rather live in Oklahoma than in
your AOL account.

Three. Moron, your bus is leaving.

Please move out of your mothers and fathers guest room, take off your
"I want to believe" t-shirt, get therapy, then get a job. After you
have finished those things then come on back in and play.

If you can't see the humor in Baywatch and X-files with the same
storyline then you truly are taking yourself and x-files to seriously.

Yeah...I seem to remember them doing an episode about silicon-based
lifeforms...

Damn, your right, that must be what the problem is, I don't have a job. Of
course, not having a job and all, get plenty of theropy. My shrink and I talk
constantly about how "I want to believe". (Seems you got most of it right)
However, when I return to my house (not just a guest room), that my mother and
father gave me, and pull my beemer into the driveway, I think, Hmmm, not having
a job sucks. Then I go into my house, pop in one of my X-Files tapes, boot up
my p166, login, then check use-net to see what bozo pissed me off today with
their mindless dribble. I then sit back in the yard by the pool and think
seriously, oh yea, this is why I don't have a job.

Fact is. X-Files is entertainment to stimulate the big head, offering thoughts
on alternative subjects and ideas, while Babe Watch is entertainment to
stimulate the little head, offering thoughts on bathingsuited babes on the
beach.

Once again your post proves that both your heads are small and rarely
used (:>).

now seriously
Lets put things in perspective on a scale form 0 to 100. Babewatch is
25 and x-files is 30. Better but not much better. Both are basic brain
candy. I enjoy x-files because it is brain candy. It is like reading
the alpha murder mystery series. Before you start you how things will
turn out but you need the diversion from serious day to day topics.

How many post in this newsgroup do you see people posting the physical
attributes of GA and DD? How about just under 50%.

I have seen 60-70% of the x-files shows. Could you be specific about
what parts are for the "big head?" What alternative have been offered.
If you want "big head TV" watch McLauglin Group, Crossfire, ER.
