Spawn...from JMS FB feed...

I�ve mentioned before that I still hear the characters from Babylon 5 talking in my head at all hours, especially at night when I�m trying to sleep. I alluded to one of them at the last convention I attended. I generally scour them out of my head when they come because if I don�t, if I let them accumulate, pretty soon character A has something to say about what character B said and it starts going nonstop. But this one, despite being brief, was rather tenacious. What follows is the exchange in full.

Visualize, if you will, as I unwillingly did, Londo walking alongside Sheridan. Unsurprisingly, Londo is doing all the talking here.

�I�m afraid I have a slight problem with your concept of a �bulls-eye.� I have investigated this matter at length and it is simply a series of concentric circles with a dot in the center. It looks nothing at all like a bull, or an eye, or an eye of a bull. Not even a bull that had too much to drink the night before, unless you know something about the genetics of these creatures that I failed to discover in my research. Insofar as I can determine, a �bulls eye� is nothing more than a big stiff piece of wood with a target on its front. Which brings me at last to YOU, Captain Sheridan....�
