In today's (9 Jun) USA Today's on-line Quick Cross puzzle - a usually easy 4X4 word puzzle - one of the clues is 'Lucy Lawless character'. Hmmm. LL and the solution uses only four characters. My guess was Xena and surprise surprise, it was right!

Siren: That might be in the show where she's talking to Joxer...Forget Me Not (I think) Unless my memory fails me , I believe you're right, Step.

I'm sure my memory has failed me more than once - but that was pretty clever the way you snuck that in there!

Being called Xena would NOT be a bad thing.
That's a great pic of the yawning horse. A friend's daughter was taking photos of her horse, and caught her in mid-sneeze, which is apparently a very rare shot to get. Hilarious pic. But then, you and I look pretty funny in mid-sneeze, too.

I agree on both counts, Siren! I wouldn't mind in the least being called Xena, and the photo of the horse is great. Not that I have many animals or am ever ready with a camera, but I never get those great candid shots like the yawning horse or your friend's daughter's sneezing horse. There are moments though that I wish I had a camera, and by the time I run to get it, the moment has passed....like this weekend.
At work, I found a beautiful, light-colored misty green tree frog sitting right in the center of a big, pale apricoty-pink daylily flower. Not only was it a great color combination, but the darned thing was so cute just nestled in there, I had to get a photo. Do you think I had a camera? Of course not! By the time I called over a co-worker to take a picture with her cell phone, the little guy was gone.

Ooooo, you know I would have loved to see that froggy! Too bad he didn't hold the pose a little longer.

Just heard on an episode of NCIS: "You're xenophobic!" "I am not xenophobic! That's one of my favorite shows! Leather skirts, lesbian sword fighting, female empowerment. Maybe I am a little Ziva-phobic." This was on again last night - they had it on USA.

Bravo's 100 Greatest TV Characters
The List
100. Xena from Xena: Warrior Princess - played by Lucy Lawless 99. Adrian Monk
She's only 100 in the top 100? That's because I didn't get a chance to vote

Only #100 for one of the most memorable female characters in tv history? That really is a shame.
I heard a Xena reference yesterday. My sister was telling her big red hen, Xena, to hurry into the chicken coop.

She is a big, sturdy hen, for sure. She was one of the first hens to be named.

Flipping through the channels yesterday, the girls ended up on a show called "America's Next Top Model". Contestants on the show compete week to week, shooting different types of photo opportunities and such, to net a Cover Girl contract and magazine spread. One of the shoots involved fighting like a gladiator. One of the judges said of the girl's picture who won, "She could be Xena's sidekick!", and the screen showed the winning photo next to a picture of Gabrielle. (Apparently, this is the girl who went on to win the entire competition - the show's first plus-size model) Here's her Xena's sidekick shots (you have to scroll through the gallery to see them - they're the last four) www.oxygen.com/tvshows/topmodel/photos/Whitney.aspx

No, she couldn't do the nose thing, and while they had a nice picture of Rene and Lucy, I have to agree with your question. Who could say this was the best/favorite 15 and NOT list A Day In The Life?
I don't get the point of the perpendicular thingy in the head band, but maybe they had to make the best of a difficult costume.

Maybe it's actually Minya's costume, instead. I guess we shouldn't object to his choice of eps too much. After all, it's HIS Top 15 list. But how could any bonafide XWP fan leave out "A Day In The Life"? I mean, he includes, "The Quill Is Mightier", a Xena-lite and Joxer-heavy ep, and leaves out "A Day In The Life"? Ah well, to each his own.

I agree. It's too difficult to narrow it down to my favorite eps. It would be much easier to list the "Least Favorite" eps. When people ask me that question--and someone actually did a couple of weeks ago at work when we were discussing the now-in-progress Xena Con--I usually break it down to five or so eps per catagory...favorite comedy eps, favorite drama, favorite Gab eps, etc. It's much easier that way!
And the blond is OK...she does wear the look well. Maybe as an Amazon extra...

Very cool that our beloved WP could assist modern warriors. BTW, did you see the link below the article, which stated that Lucy has pleaded guilty to trespassing on a Shell Oil ship? She could see jail time.
