I had a friend who claimed her thoughts were more elegant in French and less inhibited in Italian. I don't know if there's any truth to that, mind you, but it certainly sounded good.

What child wants to grow up to be a lawyer? No, I'd an inkling I'd be good at it and my parents disapproved, which was always an encouraging sign.

*shrugs* I wouldn't know, my own thoughts are usually just a mix and would only make sense to me. I think I was up to 26 languages at last count...

That's true. Do your parents still disappove since you became one?

[alan_shore]

*laughs* You've lost track. That's...humbling.

They're both dead now, although knowing my father he hasn't permitted something as trifling as his departure from this earthly plane to interfere with the scorn he harbors for my chosen profession.

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

*waves it off as no big deal* They say the first two are the hardest. Probably because you can get them mixed up the easiest.

Foster parents for me...not sure how they feel about my profession, I haven't seen them in awhile. and the mun can't remember if they are dead too or not My family tends more towards my coworkers now really.

[alan_shore]

Yeah? I doubt I could name twenty-six languages.

I suppose we're alike in that respect.

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

*smile* Care to learn a word of a language very few people know?
Kree is a good word to know from Goa'uld language. Means alot of things, but loosely translated it means "attention", "listen up", "concentrate" ...or if you like, "Yoo-hoo".

[alan_shore]

And once I've attracted their attention, what am I supposed to say?

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

*hadn't thought of that* Oh um...I suppose you could follow it with "kel sha" if you wanted to say hello or greetings...or "tal'mac Alan Shore"...
I usually have to follow it with "kree'ta" myself...to get someone to quit messing with something they're not supposed to.

[alan_shore]

Like what, your equipment?

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

Er...sometimes. I really couldn't elaborate more...some of the stuff I'm involved in is classified.

[alan_shore]

Oh, come on. I'm in the Coast Guard. Tell me, would the government entrust the safety of its navigable waters to someone whose loyalty was in doubt?

*facepalm* that icon is making the mun giggle

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

*eyebrow raise*

...well you are a lawyer. Your loyalty is to your client, whoever they may be at the time.

ahahaha, have you seen the *Batman* one?

[alan_shore]

...

Fine. Suit yourself.

Icon or episode, though the answer is no to both...I've not seen any Boston Legal

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

...for that matter, how does a lawyer end up in the Coast Guard? That seems like an odd mix.

[alan_shore]

Gosh, I'd love to tell you, but I'm afraid that information is classified.

ooc: Here you are! And there are plenty more ridiculous costumes where that came from.

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

*rueful smile* Yeah, guess I deserved that. Never mind then.


ooc: ahhhh! ok that's just...yikes. *covers Daniel's eyes*

[alan_shore]

*sighs* We--that is, my friend Denny and I--originally intended to join the National Guard, but were thwarted by their ill-considered and discriminatory recruitment practices.

ooc: Ahahahaha! I guess I'll spare you from the scarier pictures.

For now.

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

Discriminatory? Not healthy enough or something?


ooc: Yeah, something I thought I'd never seen Spader wear. :) I have to ask...why? Why all the costumes? Were they all in one episode?

[alan_shore]

Now why would you immediately leap to that conclusion.


ooc: Well, a lot of them were for Halloween (the show ran for five years--that's a lot of Halloween eps), and some of the others had to do with Alan's flair for the dramatic/need for attention/desire to cause trouble.

But yes, one does get the sense that the writers just like dressing Spader (and Shatner) in absurd attire.

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

...oh no! No, I didn't mean...I mean...*now he's embarassed*

I mean, I work with the military a lot and that was the only thing I could think of that they would be sticklers about.

ooc: lol, well writers got to have some fun.

[alan_shore]

*comes perilously close to smiling before recovering his sense of righteous indignation* We were deemed too old to enlist.

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

What? You're kidding? How old is too...no wait *stops himself* I could get into all kinds of trouble with that question too.
I've got to start listening when I talk...

[alan_shore]

I'm 46; as a matter of policy, anyone over the age of 35 is thanked a half-dozen times and shown the door.

*surreptitiously looks Daniel up and down* How old are you?

[stargatejackson.livejournal.com]

Hmmm...34. Guess I have only one more year. *chuckles*

[alan_shore]

Just don't tell them I sent you.
