Raise your hand if you wish that Sigorney Weaver had shown a bit more of herself in Galaxy Quest. MMmmmmROWR!

That’s what I thought.

I’m not a lesbian, but I certainly agree that she should have shown more! Even straight girls can appreciate another female’s beauty! 😃

Wanna see more of Sigourney Weaver? Go rent “Alien” (the first one), and you can get a nice view of her bony butt crack. And she was twenty years younger, no less!

Sigorney Weaver? What is this girl? 40? 45?

Sigourney was surprisingly hot in that movie - actually, suspiciously hot. I honestly didn’t recognize her at first, and after I did I watched the credits carefully to see if “Industrial Light & Magic” were listed as “makeup artists for Ms. Weaver”.

You’re right, handy. There’s no way a woman of that age can possibly be sexy.

Since she’s over 50, he might have meant it as a compliment.

Hey, RT, I just finished _The Other Side of the World_!

The Aubrey/Maturin series is one of my favourites.

Smart is sexy.

Yeah, I was quite intriqued by Weaver in Galaxy Quest. Then again, I’ve always liked her. I’d love to to see her play a lesbian love scene at least once.

Since Ms Weaver does not seem the sort to resort to implants, I assume her “figure” in that movie is a great a tribute to foundation garments as Julia Roberts’ in “Erin Brokavitch.” Ms Roberts said “it took a village” to give her that bust.

This is not to say that neither has a beautiful, normal, REAL, though bony, figure.

She has small breasts. She showed in them in a movie she did a long time ago with Michael Caine. Doesn’t look like she had any surgery, just a push up bra in Galaxy Quest.

She would use a body double. She’s not a stupic chick.

Yeah, that was **Half Moon Street** from 1986. She was riding an exercise bike while topless and it was one of the wierder sexual scenes I have seen. She had a physique that was different than any I had seen though not unappealing by any means and she had a confidence and lack of self consciousness made her very sexy.

rjk, you’re _way_ ahead of me - I’m still waiting for my library to turn up a copy of _Mauritius Command_ for me. But as you have probably gathered, I’ve greatly enjoyed the first three, and expect to have a pleasant summer reading the remaining 17!

[still hijacking]

I haven’t actually read the full set; the libraries I can find are frustrating that way.

And I have no more room to actually _buy_ books until I get another bookcase and do a major purge.
