I have, what, 42...43 more people to interview?" the Colonel says as he pats his hand on top of a stack of personnel folders."Everyone of them has more degrees than I do, is smarter than I am, and is more qualified to be on this team than anyone else on Earth. But you know what most of them lack? A sense of adventure. They get so wrapped up in the technical aspects of the gate that they forget we go out there everyday without the slightest idea of what the hell we'll be up against. Will we come back? Will we meet new friends, new enemies, new....another word for enemies? We don't know. But, you know what? I don't care. And neither should you. Because, when it's all said and done, you know what you'll have besides schematics and new technology? You'll have memories. Memories that will be with you for the rest of your life."Colonel Johnson looks down and writes some notes in the folder he has open on Ms. Wolfe. He stops and looks up again."And, yes, I know what it's like to show a zippo to a caveman. Why do you think I wanted to go to P3K-447?"The Colonel winks as he says this."So what else can you tell me about yourself, Ashley? Family, friends, hobbies? Anything to help me get to know you better as a person, not just as a technician."OOC: I'm not sure what's wrong with the galaxy part. I can't assume that every planet they go to is in the same galaxy.EDIT: BTW, it sure is nice to be a player again. I've been DMing for the last year and I really enjoy it but every now I then I like to just play.</blockquote>
