My final Sam rec is another one of the many great stories to come out of samcarterfic. This is an entertaining, silly, wonderful romp of an adventure from a first time SG-1 author.

All heroes have their weaknesses. Superman has his kryptonite. Indiana Jones has his snakes. Brandifer suggests a weakness for Samantha Carter that leads to hilarious results in the midst of a lighthearted adventure tale. (The opening references to "Hee Haw" already shows this isn't your average SG-1 adventure in tone).

I admit I questioned a couple of characterization choices, like Sam answering a call of nature unarmed in the middle of a mission, but the resulting punchline was worth Sam's small sacrifice to the plot here. The IMPORTANT characterization aspect brandifer caught spot on was the banter and team interaction of all our intrepid heroes. I hope she writes more in this fandom.

Go and end 2006 with a chuckle, because I dare you not to laugh at least once while reading this story.

Happy New Year to all!
