It is actually a Raptor.

and if only it were a dove in Lee's apartment. It was a pigeon. Dove makes more since but even RDM said it was a pigeon.

Guess I should lay off the whiskey next time.

Fixed both, thanks!

Thompson I thought the ending was great, save one point. I realize that Moore was trying to make all of us part Cylon with M-Eve, yet people did not leave Africa for parts unknown before 50,000 BCE. It would be another 40,000 years before farming shows up. I think it would have been better and made more logical sense had it been 8-10,000 ya. This would tie back to the original series that the Toltecs, Aztecs, Egyptians, etc came from "out there". Plus farming is only 10,000 years old. so we are to believe that the colonials descendants dumbed down for 140,000 years. had this one point been different, it would also tie into many current fantasies (hypothosies of alien intervention) that we humans could not have built the higher ancient cultures without help.

Anyway, thats my only pet peave, except its over. Guess if thats all I've got to gripe about, I am doing pretty good.

It was absolutely perfect in so many ways. And then you find out it was all "God did it." I was on a high, buzzing in geek ecstacy and then I crashed. Deus ex machina is a crap way to end such a brilliant series and leaves me really frustrated after 4 amazing seasons.

Emailed to my brother directly after watching the last season to let him know that BSG was one of the best and most satisfying series I have ever watched. Before hitting send, I deleted "one of".

Great job. NBC's Lost should hirer BSG's writers.

Here we exist and place all these expectations on a GOD. Yet, all our expectations are so human that they cannot apply adequately. If God truly directs what happens and when, I doubt we would ever blatantly know it. Largely because the simplest things in our lives can cause us to take such a route where we end up where we are.

Gaius Baltar said something at the end, or near the end, that really struck a chord in me. Something to the effect of "God is not interested in good or evil. That is only us."

I was also intrigued by the use of the opera house as the dream world meeting ground of the humans and cylons. Opera has been said to be the "Divine theatre" in the past. Not sure if the writers of BSG thought of that or not, but it made a hell of a lot of sense when Gaius and Caprica-Six decide to enter the "Opera House" which is the CIC and inside is cylons and humans all working together, in concert, to fight for their survival. That part truly gave me chills.
