Yesterday, I lost my day job. I was fired for some rather dubious reasons, but it boiled down to the fact that someone on the board of directors didn’t like the fact that I had a job, so they lobbied to correct that situation, and thus I find myself wondering how I’m going to make my next mortgage payment, or how I’m going to buy my next beer (answer, no beer until I’m back in the work force).

That being said, now that I’m temporarily unemployed, I’m going to devote much more time to the various websites that I have created and just let coast, including www.internet-d.com www.movieties.com and www.myconfinedspace.com My first task to to create a new “landing page” for mcs. This also means TIMELY posts on internet-d and movieties, so please feel free to visit those sites.

Another thing this means? I’m going to be in the MCS chatroom MUCH more, and I’m going to need people to talk to, so feel free to swing on by. This is going to be a full time gig for a while, so starting 8:30am EST until

I wish I knew what this was about, the plot seems AMAZING.

In the Star Trek universe created by Gene Roddenberry, there are a myriad of iconic images many people remember: Green Orion slave girls, the Borg, phasers, heroes, villains, and that big-headed alien that Clint Howard pretends to be that shows up at the end of the credits of the original series, and more. But take anyone off the street, and odds are they can identify at least one incarnation of the USS Enterprise. Starships have long been one of the easily recognizable parts of Star Trek lore; while Roddenbery’s vision of the future was for the most part peaceful, with brains far exceeding brawn, not all conflict could be resolved by hugging it out.

lots of videos, and I whole heartedly disagree with #1 (and it seems like the guy at TR has no idea WHY it’s so damn powerful), but this list actually reminded me that I missed a couple dozen ENTERPRISE episodes, one of which apparently took place in the Mirror Mirror verse, which reminds me, all the trek episodes are on Netflix… though none of the movies are, wtf.

Space… the final frontier … endless…silent…waiting. This si the story of the Unites Space Ship Enterprise…its mission…a five year patrol of the galaxy…to seek out and contact all alien life…to explore..to travel the vast galaxy where no man has gone before…a STAR TREK.

I’m buying.

Hallmark has taken an iconic scene from the original Star Trek series and added it to their ever increasing lineup of nerdy Christmas ornaments. It also includes dialog from the show.

I have every ornament from the star trek line going back to the second one. dammit, I don’t own the first one. ugggggggh.

After watching the entire TNG series on Netflix, I’m actually pretty interested in this higher quality, because let’s be honest, the current offerings are horrible looking. Not sure I’d be willing to pay money for just three episodes though.
