The power of Star Trek fans


It reminds me of those "The Power of Cheese" commercials. It's amazing to me how people can get togther and make something happen. On Thursday, Wil Wheaton posted on his site (click here) about why he was cut from attending the 15th Aniv. of Star Trek: The Next Generation Convention next month in Pasadena. It was a bitter tale of money and hard luck. I was drawn in, and felt I needed to voice my anger directly to Creation Entertainment. So on Thursday afternoon, I called Creation. I talked to a lady who told me that all the people that I could complain to were in a "meeting." (Basically, giving me the run around.) So I proceded to tell her that I was dissapointed in the fact that Wil Wheaton was not going to be at the Convention next month, and that I had already bought tickets to the event, when I found out he was going to be there. (His name was listed on the site a couple of weeks ago, and was suddenly taken off.) I told her that she should read Wil's website, where he called Creation cheap (not an exact quote) and felt he had been snubbed by the people who worked there. She was appalled that he would write such things on his website, and told me that Creation is not like that at all. I scoffed, and told her that I would like the email of the person who deals with the talent, so that I could give them a piece of my mind. Conventions used to be about the fans, not about the money. I also had a friend who wrote to Adam Malin (president of Creation) , and expressed his disappointment at this particular move. Well, Creation listened. After tonnes of email, phone calls and faxes, Adam Malin called up Wil personally,and gave him a better offer. And now, Wil Wheaton is going to be at the convention! It only took 2 days, and we totally hooked him up! I'm so proud of us nerds. I suggest you read his site, as he's a much better writer than I, to get the full story on what took place. As a Wil Wheaton fan, I'm thrilled! I'll have to wear my William Fucking Shatner T-Shirt that I got from his website to the convention. That's the one that he signed "Wil Fucking Wheaton." He has such a huge internet fan base, it's incredible.



On to other matters, I talked to Paul today, and he's doing well. He's just as busy (if not busier) as I am.



I finally got in touch with Andy, but our call was cut short by Nano. Damn you, Nano. God forbid Andy should learn how to play the guitar any other day of the week. *wink* But Andy pointed something out that really stuck with me. He said that this last time that I went up, It was really hard to say good-bye. Harder than any other time I've visited. I totally agree. When I finally said good-bye to everyone on that Sunday (after seeing Austin Powers 3 with them), I cried all the way back to the hotel. I cried harder than I've cried in a long time. I released so much, dumped all those expectations of staying there. I was even thinking of somehow trasfering to the University of Alberta. I was seriously considering it. Why? Because it's familiar, safe. I've got such an amazing bunch of friends up there, they have no idea how much they all still mean to me, even after living here in Vegas for 4 years.




Also, I went over to Brandon's friends house for dinner Thursday night. Robert and Susie are big Trek fans, and they are really cute because they just got married! Their living room is covered in Trek goods, and sci-fi bits. I could have looked around there for days. Susie made an amazing meal, seafood pasta, with every kind of seafood you could imagine. They are really cool people, and they have a beautiful home. Another really cool thing is that they are going to be on TLC's "A Wedding Story" sometime in October. I love that show. They had their wedding at Star Trek: The Experience. Now that is cool. A fully themed Star Trek Wedding. That sounds like something I would (or will) do, if I ever get married. I'm in no rush though. *smile*




Want to know something really fucked up about CCSN? Their book store is not open on the Saturday before classes start! I am so pissed. This means that I'm going to have to spend half the day Wednesday getting my book. *anger* Of course, I realize that I could have gotten the book before the first week of class. But I was so busy.




I saw the director's cut of the movie "Legend" with Tom Cruise. Interesting. I'm not a huge fantasy fan, but it reminded me of "The Never-ending Story" which is one of my favorite fantasy flicks. That and "Willow." Ahhh, memories. Oh! What about "The Dark Crystal?" Classic. Those are the only fantasy movies I can think of right now.



So that's it from this side of the hood, peace out.

School


It starts next week. I've decided to take only one class this semester because I need to get my life in order before I decided to stress myself out over school. I'll be taking Engineering Physics. I'm not all that excited about it. You know how I can tell? By now, I would have bought all my textbooks and supplies, and I haven't even thought of it. There is a new college opening up here in Las Vegas. It's cheaper than UNLV, but more expensive than community. They offer 4 year programs, so I'll have to check them out. I think it's called Nevada State University.

I tried to call Andy last night, but he had just left. BASTARD! No, just kidding, I love you Andy! So I'll try to call him tonight. I haven't talked to anyone from Edmonton since the trip (except for Tara, the night I got back.) I've just been so busy! I keep meaning to get the pictures of the wedding up on the site (oh, and I also have to add the pictures that defiantnx sent me for the Vega$ con) but it's such a task. Oh well... They'll get up some time or another.

Smell ya later homes...

Long Goodbye



^^^ They are wonderful and heart wrenching at the same time. I've been able to only get roughly 5-6 hours of sleep a night (sometimes less) for the past couple nights, and I'm somehow still alive. You've got to love Red Bull. My mom is afraid that drink is going to kill me, she gave me a little speech about it, but I'm not mixing it with alcohol, so It's ok.

I've made absolute plans to go to the 15th Aniv. of TNG next month in Pasadena! I'll finally get to see Patrick Stewart! I've been to about 8 conventions, and I've never been able to see him. I bought an autograph ticket for James Cromwell (who played Zephram Cochrane in FC and Enterprise; The inventor of warp drive for the human race) and it's too cool, because he's on my SevTrek poster. I have about 50 autographs on there now. It's my pride and joy, well, besides the Dominic Keating poster, which I still have to get framed.

***smiles***


Hmmmm... ***Smiles*** Today is a good day. I went to a really great club last night, they played all the old school music I used to listen to when I was in high school, and of course, you can't go wrong when they play Sarah McLachlan for 10mins. Happy birthday Grey! The Colombia meeting was good. It was interesting to see the reactions of "normal" people when they see "other" people dressed in Star Trek outfits. Saw some really good costumes. You go Dr. Phlox! I didn't get home until about 4am, but I'm just high on life so it's all good in the hood. ;)

Smell ya later...

Work


You know what I like about my job? I go into my breakroom (which is aptly named 'Ten Forward') and there is a Borg reading a newspaper. I'm so easily amused.

The boy


Ok, so I have to admit this. I can't stop thinking about the boy. I don't want to seem like a stalker, but he's really pushed some buttons that haven't been pushed in a long time. I just erased half of what I was going to write because I'm being stupid. I don't know, I need to go for a walk or something, or for a swim, or for a skydive. SOMETHING. Anything to just make this feeling of needing to see him go away. Not completely, but enough so that I can function as a normal human being. I did clean my room today, and I'm going to finish it tomorrow. You might think that got my mind off things, but no. I'm pretty sure the only reason I cleaned my room was so that he could come and see it some time. God, I'm being so stupid. I feel like I'm 17 again. (I'm talking like it was that long ago...) I really am as giddy as a school girl. Maybe I'll call Heather. Then we can go for a walk in the desert.

Smell Ya Later..

Cleaning


I found out what happens if you register early and don't pay for your classes on time, they just go ahead and un-register you. When I went to check for my classes a couple of days ago, I was shocked to find out that I wasn't registered for the fall at all. But, I called the school, and I registered for the class I want to take. I'm only taking one this semester, I need a break. I'll be taking Physics 181. Finally, I'm going to be taking a class that has something to do with my major; well, math does, but I'm always taking a math class, so that doesn't count.

I've lost 5lbs this week. Whooooooo Hoooo!

I'm going to start to clean my room today, for reals yo. It's just getting stupid now.

Smell ya later...

^^^Don't ask.

So the dates went really well, and yes, there was more than one. ***smiles*** Although I won't go into too much detail, because I just found out tonight that he read my site! We just had a really great time. We have alot in common, and he's a really nice guy. He's pretty cute too. ***smiles***

I'm going out to one of my first Star Trek Fan Club gatherings on Friday, and most of the people there will be dressed up in Star Trek gear. It's not required, but it's encouraged. I'm out of luck, I don't really have a uniform. I'm planning on being able to fit into the T'Pol uniform by February (the SF con). I've totally lost my appetite. I couldn't even eat all of James' salmon on Monday night.

Our last clinic was really good. We did alot of releasing of negative energy, and I think that may be why I have lost the urge to eat. This whole week has been one release after another. Whew! I can't wait for it to be over!

I had a strange dream tonight about the TrekBBS. (I know, if you start to dream about a website, you should probably leave it for a while) We were all in these tunnels, and we were able to watch ourselves through these cameras, but I could only see the people who I knew in real life. Which is pretty appropriate. But it was freaky, and I can't say that it was a joyous occasion, I think we were running for our lives. But then Brandon called, and brought me back from the depths of panic. ***smiles***

Ok, I've done enough smiling here to make everyone barf (all 3 of you). I'll post more when I have something to say. Or if I just feel like blah-ing.

I know, I'm bad



To those two people who actually read this, sorry I haven't posted in a while. Summer has been very busy!

I just got back from Edmonton, where I saw my friends Sabrina and Jonas get married! They are the first out of all of us to tie the knot. They've been together since the 7th or 8th grade, so good for them! I had a blast, saw alot of people, did alot of stuff. I didn't want to leave. It's always sucks to leave, but I know I can't stay. If only some of those people could move down here, now that would be fun.

I was just at a Star Trek convention, where I had a fantastic encounter with Dominic Keating. I ended up winning a bid for this really sexy picture of him, and he personalized it and everything! I even got a kiss in front of the whole crowd, and another backstage! It was really cool. I ended up meeting up with about 10 people from the Trek BBS site that I go to, and we all had great fun! You can see the pictures if you click the menu to the left that says "Conventions", then click on the third link. I met people from all over the US and even someone from Scotland! I think we're all talking about meeting up again (when we all have money) at another convention, which would be really cool.

Let's see, Paul is seeing someone else, I have a date tonight... hmmm... I finally finished Heather's birthday present. I thought I would just make it her wedding present, because her wedding is on Oct. 6. She is hand making all of her invitations using stamps and embossing powder. They look really nice, but they take a long time.

It was Shannon's birthday yesterday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHANNON!

I saw Signs a couple of nights ago, and that movie scared the crap out of me! I screamed 4 times in the theatre, and I've never done that. It was a fantastic movie, scary, emotional, funny and contemplative. All the things that I absolutely love in a movie.

Barry's pictures from Comic Con are up on his website Omnibuscortex.com. Even if you don't know Barry, they are very interesting to say the least.

I found out Wil Wheaton is not going to be in ST:X! That sucks!

That's it for now...

Going to be in Vegas July 4th?


I'm really upset about something that is happening only here, and no one else in the world knows about it. I haven't seen it on MSNBC or even the crappy FOX NEWS channel. Here's the story...



A couple of days ago, there was a man who was trying to call his wife from his cell phone (here in LV). All of a sudden, his phone call got mixed with another (and this does happen, it's happened to me, you can actually listen to someone's whole conversation) and he was about to hang up, when he heard the Arabic language being spoken (he knows how to speak Arabic). The people on the other line said (I don't have an exacty quote), "We are in the city of sin, gambling, legal prostitution. We will get them on their day of freedom." So I'm thinking that holy shit, this is going to be investigated, people are really going to check into this and all that crap. Well, Oscar Goodman (our beloved alcoholic mayor) got really angry because of how this terrorist threat would affect tourism ($ching $ching). So they've been discrediting this guy left and right, saying that he took a lie detector test, but would not disclose the results. What I'm really worried about is that our city is so worried about losing money, that they aren't really going to encourage the FBI or whomever to investigate this claim. Doesn't that bother anyone? It's really making me want to scream from the rooftops about how fucking greedy Las Vega$ is and how hard we're going to fall if we aren't prepared for a terrorist attack that might happen on July 4, when we weren't expecting it. I'm just getting my feelings out of the way, so that if something does happen, we can get that fucking drunk ass mayor out of office (ass-uming we're all still alive) and try to repair our city.

Another note, if Andy is reading this, you had better call me or write me or I will kick your ass.



Another note, The G8 summit is taking place in Kananaskis, Alberta. How? Why? Why not Calgary? It's just weird.



I've been having my terrorist dreams again, I hope they really don't come true.



Paul was just filling in for Jason in the Second City show at the Flamingo Hilton, and he did really well! It was really funny, and he seemed relaxed on stage. He will go places.



I'm trying to get the freaking Star Trek: Nemesis trailer from the internet, and I can't find it anywhere. I was supposed to be at a convention this weekend for work, but they ended up not going. At this convention in Tulsa OK they premired the new trailer. The trailer will be out in MIB II on July 3 or 4, but I wanted to see it before anyone. I wonder how many times I said trailer in that last paragraph? I feel like I'm living in KY. (smiles at Paul's family). Bada boom *smiles at Uncle Steve*.



Yesterday was my mother's 60th birthday. I took her out to dinner and to the Second City show, we had a good time. She got a whole bunch of plants and stuff and she really liked the shorts and shirt we got her.



I haven't been able to get to the gym this week, I'm really low on energy. I'm going to the doctor on July 1, to make sure something isn't really wrong. I've had this lump on my neck for 7 years, I've just now decided to get a second opinion *in light of my friend discovering two lumps on her breast*.



Congratulations to my long time friend Jeff, who just got accepted at Vanarts in Vancouver. He's a really tallented artist, one of these days, I'll scan some of his drawings and show everyone.



I think that's all for now...

The Gym


This is just a little rant about my experience at the gym yesterday. I've been going about 4 times a week, for the last few weeks. It's a coed gym, but there is a seperate room that is just a "ladies" gym. So, I usually go in there, it's less crowded, and well, there's no men ;). I look over at this one woman, who was thinner than I, and kind of greet her as I'm walking toward the stair master. You know, just one of those little acknowlegements that happens when two people pass each other. She looked at me with such pity, up then down. I just smiled and kept walking. I think she might have stopped and watched me walk past her. I then had an epiphany. I was someone else's motivation at the gym. That girl was giving me the "thank god I don't look like that" look. When I look at people who are larger than me, at the gym, I'm always thinking "you go girl." It motivates me to want to lose weight. I guess some people need negative motivation in order to feel motivated.


Then I started to get really sad and angry because here we are all, at the gym, working our asses off (literally) and there is all this other shit going on in the world. I was watching Fox news on my headphones, and I was totally blown away by the events of late. And there I was, on the stair master, worried about some beauty standard that really isn't that important in the grand scheme of things. I was thinking about how that girl who looked at me funny could take her hostility and put it towards a good cause, like Yucca Mountain. I was thinking about how totally unfair it all is, I'm in an air conditioned gym, while there are people all around the world who are hungry, without shelter, and have no family.


Then I started thinking that I was a hypocrite. We all are. I would not give up this lifestyle, for anything. I would not go live in Afghanistan for 6 months, just to feel thier pain. I really just wish that things were good for everyone, or at least not so abso-fucking-lutly horrible. I realize that we need bad in our lives to recognize the good, but there is just so much bad right now.


On a lighter note... I have a job on Monday's and Tuesday's at my college as a math tutor. They pay me and everything. I will be tutoring 6 hours a day, and it's kind of like a drop in thing, where I'm there for 6 hours and people come and go. Maybe when the fall semester comes, I'll quit Star Trek and tutor full time. But I have to see how I like it. I might hate it more than here, but I doubt it. I just need a change. I'm getting restless...

Saturday, June 01, 2002

YEY!


So I'm just sitting here at work, minding my own business, when I hear the doorbell. (They have to ring it, and then I let them in). Who is there? Paul. What does he have? Spider-Man 12 inch action figures! Holy crap! They look pretty good too. I really have to clean my room, and make it so that I can display all my toys. Not very feng shui, but oh well. Nobody's perfect. I have a waterfall near the door, for prosperity.And my bed is angled north/south instead of east west. I'm trying, damnit. I've also been going to the gym. It never fails, whenever I have to see people from Edmonton, I always feel fat. I have to go to the gym like 85 times a week. I think I need to just calm down.

Rico Suave


I saw Original Sin last night with Antonio Bandaras and Angelina Jolie (sp?). Pretty good sex scenes, good story line. I've just been spoiled on Sci-Fi and fantasy movies. I haven't been able to enjoy a "regular" movie for the last couple months. I'm a sci-fi snob. Oxy moron? Well, that too. Anyhoo, that's all I have to say right now.

Friday, May 24, 2002

House follow up...


Well, they passed the bill *shock, surprise* that I mentioned in an earlier post. Click HERE to read about it. They actually stayed until 3am (EST). Maybe that's the third shitty thing that will happen this week.

On a happier note... I'm going to see the monks tonight at our local library. It's a free show that promotes tolerance, healing and awareness for the people of Tibet. I really need to see something postive today.

Boldly not going...


Well, I didn't get into Caltech. Big surprise, I suppose. There was just this little "maybe" that had been in the back of my mind for the last 4 months. But you wouldn't believe how hard that "maybe" had burried itself into my head. Oh well, even Captain Picard had to try twice to get into Starfleet Academy. I'll send an email out to those who knew I applied, because I'm sure no one really reads this. Sorry, I'm just on a self bashing rant. Oh, and Paul and I have decided to remain "just friends"(tm). Everything comes in 3's, right? What the hell will happen next? Stay tuned for another addition of "God damn mother fucking bastard."

You can't be afraid of the wind...


I hope everyone watched the season finale of Enterprise. There is no way I can explain it, I barely understand it myself. Temporal mechanics gives me a headache. It was really good, and I'm angry that I have to wait 3 months to see what happens. I'm also relieved that I'm angry, because that means it was a good show. I have all of the first season on tape, so I'll just have to watch those all summer.


I talked to my friend Tara a couple nights ago, and I'm really psyched to be going to see them in 2 months! I'm thinking of getting a tattoo while I'm there, but I have to design it first. My friend's wedding is taking place in a hotel. This hotel happens to house the bar where I spent my 18th B-Day (good lord) and many other drunken occasions. I think we're planning on spending some time there, it should be interesting. Geez, I hope there isn't too much drama. We were really good for that in high school. I'll just be drinking wine and laughing....hahahahahahhahahaha... i'm giggling now just thinking about it.


While talking to Tara, (discussing Tobey Maguire) I realized that when he doesn't shave, he looks like an old boyfriend of mine. That's not really a good thing, considering we used to call him bacon, grease, scrub and all that jazz. Hopefully, Tobey doesn't stalk his ex's and give them diamond rings after they've been together for 2 seconds. Ba dum... shit.


If I see the preview for Minority Report one more time, I'm going to boycott the theatre. It's driving my crazy! It's like I've seen the movie already. Boo, Hiss.


I don't know if anyone has actually sat and watched C-Span for more than a few seconds, but last night, I couldn't stop watching. The republicans are trying to introduce a new legislation that would increase the national debt by $750 billion dollars, in the name of war. Now, I understand that the "war on terrorism" is important, and yes, I enjoy living safely (?) but that money would come directly out of social security. I don't have to collect SS for another 35 years, but I really want it to be there when I can't work anymore. What fascinated me most about this whole play (and it was just like it) was that the representatives from the states that spoke out about all of this were really passionate. They were yelling and spitting, and almost swearing. These people are really fighting for us, It was refreshing. This was in the House Of Representatives. Alternatively, I watched the Senate (boring) while the majority whip (D-Sen. Harry Reid-NV) went blah blah blah blah for about 5 minutes. All those people really wanted to do was go home, where as in the House, they stayed late (it was about 10pm and they were still going strong) and postponed their flights home to see their families in order to try to sway the majority into not passing this legislation. I was really proud to be an American. I think we should all watch C-Span everyonce and a while, just to see what our government is up to. That is why it's there, they just really think that no one is watching. Prove them wrong. Make them accountable for their actions. Vote! Stay informed! Don't be a sheep! BAAAAAA! Ok, I'll step off the soapbox now. Just my two cents.

Mars, here we come!


It's official! On Wednesday, there was a bill introduced that will set a goal for human exploration of space. Read the press release below:



PRESS RELEASE
Date Released: Wednesday, May 15, 2002
House Science Committee, Democratic Membership

Lampson Introduces Bill to Stimulate Human Space Exploration
(Washington) - U.S. Rep. Nick Lampson (D-TX) introduced bipartisan
legislation today to establish a series of goals to advance the
nation's human space flight program over the next twenty years.

Among the goals specified in the bill, the eight-year goal would
require the development and flight demonstration of a reusable space
vehicle capable of carrying humans from low Earth orbit to libration
points in space, which could be used to assemble large-scale
scientific observatories far beyond low Earth orbit. The twenty-year
goal would require development of a reusable vehicle to carry humans
to and from Martian orbit, development of a human occupied research
facility on one of the moons of Mars, and development of a reusable
vehicle to carry astronauts from Martian orbit to Mars and back.

The bill will allow the best, most innovative mission concepts to
compete. The bill also sets tough requirements for periodic
independent cost and schedule reviews to ensure that the exploration
initiative is properly managed.

"The real obstacle we face in overcoming the drift in the nation's
human space flight program is not technological and it's not
financial - it's the lack of commitment to get started. We don't need
another national commission to come up with goals for human space
flight beyond low Earth orbit," said Lampson. "What we need is a
national commitment to carry out any one of the many worthy goals
that have been articulated to date. The Space Exploration Act of 2002
provides this commitment with a concrete set of goals for the
nation's human space flight program after the International Space
Station."

The Ranking Democratic Member of the Science Committee, Rep. Ralph M.
Hall said, "Rep. Lampson's bill is an important step in establishing
a vision for NASA's human space flight program. I'm pleased to be a
cosponsor of the bill, and I hope that the Science Committee will
incorporate these goals in the NASA authorization bill when we mark
it up next month."

The bill also establishes an Office of Exploration within NASA to
carry out the programs to meet the goals and authorizes $50 million
and $200 million for FY 2003 and 2004, respectively.

How amazing is that! I might actually get invlolved in this one. Maybe I'll even call my congressperson. I really would like to be able to go to Mars. If they have a 20yr plan, it would be perfect. I would be 43. That is perfect. I'm so excited! I need to start training now!

With great power comes great responsibility



I went, I laughed, I cried, it became a part of me. You probably think I'm talking about Star Wars Episode 2, but NO! It's all about SPIDERMAN! What a fantastic movie! I've seen it 5 times. Yes, 5 times. There is not one bad part in the whole entire film. Tobey Maguire is excellent, as is Willem Dafoe, and Kirsten Dunst. I never read the comic book (and yes, I can still appreciate a "comic book movie") but from all the fan boys I know, it does it justice. Now we just have to wait until May 7, 2004 to see Spiderman 2. Danny Elfman's score for the movie gives me goosebumps and tinglies every time I hear it. I am an official Spiderman gusher.



On a less enthusiastic note, I went to see Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones. Um, well, it was good. The only bone I have to pick is that the romance between Anakin and Padme seemed rushed. They probably could have done a whole movie on just that. I'm really impressed at how they really tried to continue every single plotline, and manage to make the movie only 2hrs and 20mins. I really liked the planet scenes, and Yoda. Oh my god, if you ever see one thing in your life, you need to see Yoda with a lightsaber. Good action, alright dialogue, and Jar Jar Binks was only in 3 scenes (Even though I didn't mind him in the first one too much). I really wanted to see it in digital. There is one theatre in Vegas where it is in digital, and I hear there is a huge difference.



And to bring the enthusium back... ENTERPRISE is great! Love that freakin show! I tape it every week, and I get home and watch it religiously. The season finale is May 22, and it will be a continuing storyline with the Temporal Cold War. Or TCP as us nerds like to call it. I really like T'Pol, Trip and Reed. If I ever get around to it, I might post my pictures from the Pasadena Grand Slam Convention where I met most of the cast of Enterprise. Now that school is over for the moment, I just might do that.



Speaking of school, I will hear from Caltech in the first week of June. My finals were harsh. I really kind of messed up my Calculus final, and I got lucky (I think) on my Finite math final. My teacher asked me if I wanted to tutor math in the math lab for the summer, so that's something, right? I'll let everyone know what happens either way (with Caltech).



That's it for now. Smell ya later.

So tired...


Today, I am the most tired I've ever been. I finally took my Caltech entrance exams (they determine, if you get accepted, what classes you will place into), and I totally sucked. I only answered one question on the Physics exam. I've never taken calculus based physics before! The calculus exam was ok, but it was kind of like those math exams that I used to get entered into in Jr.High and High school. They really try to trick you, and if that is all a test is trying to do, then it can kiss my ass. I found myself dreaming about calculus last night, how sad.

I talked to my friend of 17years (Emily) yesterday. I hadn't talked to her for like a year. Man, it's amazing what a person can go through and still be ok.

Is it just me, or are there a whole crap load of people getting married this year? At least in my small neck of the woods. I know at least 5 couples that are for sure for sure getting married in the next year. Do I add my name to that list? No, I don't think so.

Pass the Donuts



Over at The Trek BBS people are just giving no end of shit to Enterprise. So seeing as I'm still a little bitter from a couple days ago, I added this saying to my signature...

"I am an Enterprise whore."

It seems that I am. I don't see anything wrong with it. It's like a children's christmas play where every kid but your own sucks.

I don't like Voyager, but I don't devote several days to writing about how much I hate it. Maybe a few sentences, but that's it.
