Who is the last Cylon?
- Emily
I have only seen one episode and based on what I saw the whole Battlestar Gallactica re-imagined is an astrological metaphor. I have to assume that there is some degree of Greek pantheon worked into the 12 Cylons. As far as I can tell there hasn’t been a consistent Greek god naming pattern so you should probably look for where the Cylons appear. Is there a colony that hasn’t had one yet?
The other possibility is that the Cylons are archetypes of humanity, essentially what robots would reduce us to if they analyzed us. So look for overly stereotyped personality that does not significantly overlap with one of the other Cylons.
I tried your cookie recipe and really liked it. I am curious how you make biscuits.

Thanks Amy! Well, when it comes to biscuits I make them the same way that I make love — with too much butter.
- 1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
- 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 1/4 teaspoons salt
- 2 tablespoons of cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1/2 cup butter
- 3/4 cup cream
Method
Sift flour into a bowl, add baking powder, salt, cinnamon and brown sugar all together. Using a pastry blender cut in butter. Add the cream and stir lightly into the flour mixture with a fork. Turn the dough onto a floured board. Knead lightly for about one minute. Pat till it is about 1/4 inch. Lightly flour biscuit cutter cutter and cut. Bake at 450 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and serve.
