Happy 2009 everybody!Now that that's over with...
Odd thought of the day: I was looking up Chinese symbols for some River-centric fiction I'm working on, and I now wonder if the show was actually more well researched than I thought. It's true that apples are a great prop on-set because they last forever, shine up real good, and don't break easily, but I thought this symbol too good to miss.
Here's why--according to one symbolism site:
"A basket of apples signifies peace and harmony"
That's why Zoe and the Cap'n always cut theirs, specially when they're from the Feds--makes sure there's remaining peace and quiet afterwards.
Grenades will ruin your day. Oh, the irony!
Anybody find any unintentional little tidbits about the show like that in 2008(or earlier :))?
