Star Wars/Jedi Religion

One of our local newspapers has a section called "Planet Bizarro". And the following news item was featured:

MAY THE POLICE FORCE BE WITH YOU

Strathclyde,Scotland police said recently that six of its officers and two civilian staff have listed their religion as "Jedi" in voluntary diversity forms....Jane's Police Review editor Chris Herbert said:"The Force appears to be strong in Strathclyde Police. Far from living a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, some members of the noble Jedi order… Continue

They aren't making the new Freddy Kruger funny?!?!

(Taken from the wikipedia article)
"On January 29, 2008, Variety reported that Michael Bay and his Platinum Dunes production company would be rebooting the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise with a remake of the original 1984 film.[4] In an interview, producer Brad Fuller explained that they are following the same line they did with their Friday the 13th remake, by abandoning the things that made the character less scary—the film's antagonist, Freddy Krueger, will not be "cracking jokes" as had b… Continue

Happy 4th of July

North Koreas's missiles didn't make it to Hawaii so they'll have to dip into the budget for fireworks. Stay safe, unless your recording it with a camera.

Klingons, Time Lords, and more Klingons

Well, my Star Trek marathon continues. I'm up to series 2 of TNG, and I was all set to blow it out of the airlock, when I came across the season's first gem - the Klingon episode aka Heart of Glory. This episode did a really good job of defining much of what the Klingons have come to be celebrated for. Until that point, the only Klingons we had met were Lieutentant Worf, who had a limited exposure to the race. Here, they are shown to be more than mouchtace twirling baddies, but a deeply honourab… Continue

Is it time to start the Federation? - NASA BLOGS



In the next few weeks we will get a new Administrator and Deputy Administrator. Shortly after that we will hear from the new Augustine Committee their recommendations concerning the future of human space exploration. So what can we expect about the future direction of NASA? To answer that let me go back four years to the early days of the Advanced Planning Office, when the Director for… Continue

I love Star Trek

I remember one time when my third grade teacher started polling the class. What is your favorite TV show? When it was my turn to answer I replied, "Star Trek." The room erupted with laughter. One boy said, "Girls don't like Star Trek." I put up with the taunts and teases for quite some time but eventually people realized it was more than just love of a show. I had hopes and dreams for a better future.

I do not care if you like or dislike the new movie. While the Civil War rages between Naysayer… Continue

4th of July

Hi gang, can we really take a moment to reflect on what this holiday means for millions of Americans? It means the freedom to bear arms, live where we want , work hard at a job we choose and make all our dreams come true, practice the religion faith the way we want, the freedom to choose our mate, and most of all THE FREEDOM OF SPEECH. There are military men right now overseas protecting our freedom. Tomorrow North Korea is threatning to blow us to smitherings( I would like to see tham try it) a… Continue

My Grandparents

I found out last night that my 91 year old grandmother died last week, but was revived, and my 96 year old grandfather is not doing well either. They are the only grandparents I have left. I am debating on taking my kids to go visit them. My grandmother is wheelchair bound right now and had to have a pacemaker put in a earlier in the week. My grandfather is in terrible shape. My grandparents have been together for a long time. They had 8 kids together. My grandfather was an artist, and a pretty… Continue

Negativity for Negativity's Sake.... Why Define Yourself So Illogically?

I just came across the rudest person I have ever seen on TrekSpace. I didn't think it was possible. I genuinely believed that those that had an appreciation for all things Trek could safely converge on TrekSpace & discuss their love for Trek, but I was wrong. This person was on the Fans of TOS group offering 41 relatively thin reasons why people should hate the newest Trek film. My reply to them was relatively nice &… Continue

Rita Rudner-- Borg Drone?

Thanks to my friend Mike, I found out today that I'm on the bonus material on comedian Rita Rudner's DVD recording of her Las Vegas act called "Rita Rudner- Live From Las Vegas". There's about a six minute segment from the Star Trek convention there a couple of years ago, and I appear twice.
