Buzzard Crest: some of the best juice in the city if not the state

Their only online presence seems to be their Facebook page. If you know, you know, if you don't, go to either Union Square (northeast corner) or Grand Army Plaza on Saturdays. At the former, the line splits across the walkway into two halves, but there's usually a GrowNYC staff member supervising things.

This big half-gallon bastard is $19, so it's not cheap, but even if you wouldn't regularly get it, trust me... it's worthwhile at least as an occasional indulgence. The smaller quart size is $10 and 12 oz. is $5. I go through a bunch of this every fall.

General Hague pays Sheridan a visit; the "conspiracy of light" begins

I always enjoy this scene on rewatches because it's a reminder that the movement against Clark didn't start with Sheridan--might never have gotten off the ground, in fact, if not for this meeting. I also appreciate the description of Clark's initial base of support: parts of the military, the intelligence community, the Homeguard. All sorts of roaches that were always there, just waiting to emerge in the right climate... as mirrors real life. The conspiracy-minded Sheridan is quick to finger the Psi Corps, although, at this point, he couldn't have guessed who the ultimate puppetmasters were.

A gift from my friend, set to the music from the same scene in "Dreamland II" (s6e5)

This friend and I have been X-Philes since the show aired, and she sent me this for my birthday a few days ago. What a total delight.

And I never noticed that it makes an "X" when seen from the side, heh.

You can go out for drinks with one Syndicate member and maybe get him all tipsy. Who do you choose?

#1 choice: Deep Throat. He was always the most personable, and we know he likes his beer. He may also carry around just enough guilt to spill at least a few beans.

#2: Well-Manicured Man. In this case, you're not going to a pub, probably somewhere more upscale, and you're having wine or sherry or some such. He's not divulging anything, but the man is polite, well-spoken, well-educated (and well-manicured), and he seems like generally pleasant company when he's not being a ruthless snake.

First Elder: yeah, right. Although maybe there's a tiny chance that he turns into the complete opposite of himself when soused.

CSM: he ain't giving up shit either, and he's unpleasant at the best of times. Plus the smoke. Pass.

Bill Mulder: you could probably get a little out of him if you got him drunk enough, but boy is he miserable, and it would not be a pleasant evening.

Victor Klemper: his actual personality is not objectionable, and hell, he's German, so he can probably knock back some beers... but, if he were inclined to tell me anything, I'm not sure I'd want to hear it.

Conrad Strughold: I'd probably be too intimidated to even meet the dude. If you saw him in "Fight the Future", yeah, that's not someone on whom booze would do anything good, I think.

(I never considered Mr. X, Krycek, or Covarrubias full members--they were always just allies/subordinates with their own agendas.)

Mulder's mom was no better than the rest of them. She knew everything.

Scully bringing a naive Mulder back down to earth in "Born Again"

We get a lot of Mulder ultimately being correct about paranormal phenomena, and I love this scene because it's not one of their science-vs.-science-fiction arguments, it's Scully saying that even if Mulder's right, it doesn't matter, because they can't do anything about it. Really shows how essential she is in this relationship.

"A true piece of history, Scully. The very first X-File, initiated by J. Edgar Hoover himself in 1946." Bet you'd forgotten about this

This is from "Shapes" (s1e19), an episode that is not one to which I regularly return.
