Anyway, just thought it was amusing.

Yes, Virgina, there really is a National Loyalty Day.

1. Designation — May 1 is Loyalty Day.


2. Purpose — Loyalty Day is a special day for the reaffirmation of loyalty to the United States and for the recognition of the heritage of American freedom.


3. Proclamation — The President is requested to issue a proclamation —
   
   
   
   1. calling on United States Government officials to display the flag of the United States on all Government buildings on Loyalty Day; and
   
   
   2. inviting the people of the United States to observe Loyalty Day with appropriate ceremonies in schools and other suitable places.

It's celebrated on May 1st, as May Day is a dirty communist holiday that there had to be a holiday created to counter it. Actually, two holidays. Law Day, USA is on May 1 too!

I kid because I love.

John Barrowman has maybe spent a little too much time on the set of Torchwood recently - he's started to dress up like Derk from "Teenagers from Outerspace"!

miss_zedam posts pictures of him and Scott at the Cardiff Mardi Gras, where the unfortunate scifi crossover took place.

Luckily, there was no duck tape seen. Though there is this little black number... = )

Cannon Statement:
Jack is a Fact of the universe.

Theory:
Jack's probability of existence is 1. This only becomes interesting when you realize that everyone else's probability of existence is lower. ( Ex. Toshiko Sato has a probability of 63% )

Not only can people be erased from existence with a paradox, there is - or now there is, since the fabric of time has grown more unstable since the Fall of the Time Lords and their obsessive matenence of a strict version of events - a small flickering in and out of existence based on events that happen do to even minor time travel interference in the time stream.

Examples in Cannon:
Timey-Wimy Sally Sparrow. Harriet Jones' political career. Tim Latimer missing that bomb, and resulting family because he lived. The Great and Bountiful Fourth Human Empire, though I'm not sure this one is a casualty of the Time War or not.

Conclusion:
So even if you made a Paradox Machine and killed Jack Harkness before he became Jack Harkness, he still would exist. And then he would probably kill you twice - before and after he destroyed the Paradox Machine.
