Stargate books up for grabs

Take the entire set; not just one book. I want them gone, all at once!

Stargate by Devlin and Emmerich
SG: Retribution by Bill McKay
SG: Rebellion by BM
SG: Reconnaissance by BM
SG: Retaliation by BM

Please note that these books are NOT Stargate SG-1 books. They are based off of the MOVIES therefore there is NO Capt. Samantha Carter and no Teal'c and a very military, very deadly Colonel Jack O'Neil--only the original characters from the movie.  Unfortunately, I do not have the final book in this series, but you can buy it off of Amazon.

If you're interested, let me know. Best offer.

MacKenzie Phillips and Incest

Hmm. Has anyone heard of MacKenzie Phillips' accusations that her father (a member of the Mamas and the Papas) had raped her for years? She called it "consensual" after she was 19 years old, but it probably started much earlier than that. There was also a story where she said that when she was 14 and coming home from a nightclub, she hitched a ride with someone and was raped.

Clearly, this woman has had a very screwed up life, and noone did a thing to protect her from drugs and inappropriate behavior when she was a child. And of course, no one is taking responsibility now: as usually, the woman who is crying "incest!" is being called a liar, a ho, a druggie with no credibility, etc etc etc. and asking "well, why did she wait until her father was dead before accusing him of this?"

The Mentalist. Eh. I'll Watch It.

No spoilers here. Just my opinion.

It was okay. Not great. New starting montage, they decided to skip the simple black and white "Mentalist" definition from last season.

I have to admit, I do like the actors-especially the secondary actors-in this series. The only name I remember for the characters off-hand is "Cho" because honestly? I see him in commercials all the time these days, and he's got a terrific dead-pan, tongue in cheek quality to him that I just love.  The others are likable, but they haven't hit my "I KNOW THEM!" actor meter.

I don't feel that The Boss really felt like a Boss. It felt like her authority was downgraded somehow from last season-and I don't mean any plot development, I mean in the character herself. It's as if she's been directed not to be so "hard-assy"; but at least the other characters under hers *definitely* respect her authority. The writers made sure the tall white guy cop, who reminds me of a younger, dippier David Boreanaz, called her Boss and was the least sure with them doing anything she hadn't okayed.  It meant more coming from him than the other two.

Also, it could just be MY problem...let me put this out there. I don't think the camera man is filming a specific angle or anything as blatant as what the Stargate crew did with Sam Carter (focusing on her breasts with a backlighted computer monitor). But even tho the women on the team were professionally dressed-more than last season, I think- my eyes still kept slipping to their chests when they were walking. I think their chests are in the middle of the screen, center, during those walks down the hall, or outside, because that's where my eye is falling. Not on the faces or anywhere else! It's bizarre! I found myself noticing this on Castle, too, where the woman detective's chest was located during a scene, and how she was filmed during her scenes.

Anyhow, I'll keep watching The Mentalist, but right now? Psych is a ton more fun with the same type of detective--only without all the Wife and Child in the Fridge Angst for the main character.
