While it is true that you missed my point at first, I would love to hear you rant about the linguist in Stargate.

Xav, my freshman year, my friend Jason requested Stargate every time we wandered out to rent a movie. Every time. For six months. We agreed once, and then couldn't find it anywhere in town, at any of the six video stores. I have vivid memories of the Egyptian Chick's power.

Ah -- I wondered why KQ's link listed two different people as playing the part of Sha're -- and that would explain it! Mili Avital and Vaitiare Bandera....
(trying to remember if I saw the movie version)

Yeah, technically he's an archaeologist with a special interest in Egypt, languages, and the link between Mayan and Egyptian cultures, or some such.

He also seems to know just about every language ever known to mankind, and a few that weren't. He can recognize cultural influences after 5 seconds of observation, down to the specific century and Native American tribe, where applicable. Plus, he's dead sexy.
Truly a man for all seasons.

We're supposed to overlook the fact that he seems to know everything about every single human culture ever to have graced the surface of the earth.
Afterall, he IS very very smart.

Wow. Get him out of the ill-fitting air force gear and he looks a lot likeBenBowder from Farscape.

Yup. The piercing blue eyes. Except, I think Ben is actually quite hawt. I think it's his whole "crazy act". And he makes me laugh. Not boring at all.

Michael Shanks is the one I think is hottest. He's just got this sweet mannerism, you know? Both in and out of the role. Plus, yeah, hot. Hot hot hot. And Richard Dean Anderson is much hotter than Kurt Russell. Yummy. *drools*

Ditto, ditto, ditto.
In fact, why am I here? I have a completely-unwatched SG dvd waiting for me!
For some obscure reason, my husband put the Clone Wars DVD, which is completely available online (we have my friend's Hyperspace un and password, so we get in free) on our Netflix queue, and it's holding up our SG-1.

If he's georgeous, buffed, well-dresses, and eloquent, I think it's fair to say that he's no geek.

Hmm...I know some Hatrackers that fit the above description but are still, definitely, geeks.

And, he's totally a geek. He gets all excited about science and history. He'd rather not be buffed, it just is kinda essential when you might have to be running and fighting for your life at any time. As for well-dressed, it's not too hard to dress well some of the time when you spend most of your time in fatigues. And what he gets eloquent about is usually geeky stuff- at least to the military types he hangs with.
Daniel Jackson is a geek.

Haha, no I don't add the 'n', because "bag" is already a slang term for the concept you are thinking of .
