  1. My little one taking 4 steps by herself :) She keeps taking a step or two, this is the most she has done so far. She'll be 11 months this weekend. That and my mom called for my dad to come out to the dining room for dinner, she called him by his nickname... where my 2 year old cupped her hands to her mouth then yelled out my dad's nickname LOL! And my unborn son is still doing well, so quite a few things made my day today.


  2. Song stuck in my head???!?!?! Uh yeah a couple song snippets actually that REALLY NEED to get OOOOUT!

    "Small Potato Rock! Small Potato Rock!" - Small Potatoes, this is the bit they show in the commercial and it is like brain worms I swear!!

    "Four, five, four five, four five" - that section of the counting song on Choo Choo Soul. Problem is my girls ADORE Choo Choo Soul and dance around to it, and it IS cute but argh....

     

    Then the ones that get in my head that dont bug me a lot:

    "Squirrels in My Pants", "Izzies got the Frizzies", "Queen of Mars" and "Phinadroids & Ferbots"- from Phineas & Ferb.


  3. Putting it back on TV or via a site like Disney or NickJr does for several of their kids shows would be great too for those of us who do not have nor can really afford the iPad or dont exactly want our kids running around with an Android phone. I adored Reading Rainbow as a kid, but until it comes back to TV, website (other than just reruns you find in clips on YouTube), or Netflix/Hulu... guess my kiddos will have to just wait on it then. :(


  4. Everyone who remembers me from my first years as a member here... I was a diehard TNG and especially Data fan, had been since I was 7 years old. Soooo probably would be a surprise for me to say I honestly voted Star Trek (2009). I LOVED the cast & the movie. I know it pretty much took canon and threw it out the window, but I think the series needed a bit of a shakeup.

     

    Went back and watched my beloved TNG movies and series again.... and spent 99% of my time giving it the MST3K treatment. Been transitioning away from being a Data & Soong family fan since mid 2003 or 2004, and with the access that was available for a short time from Netflix I got to rewatch most of it. And yeah.... hands down I think Star Trek 2009 wins my vote!


  5. Dropping by real quick since I just noticed that I still had the link to the site here :) I know I am late in seeing this, but... Thank you for the anniversary congrats:)

     

    Been away doing stuff and keeping busy as I have my hands full with: one of my kiddos is turning 2 next month, one is turning 1 in November, and I am expecting a 3rd at the end of October. My husband & I are working on 2 1/2 years of marriage & in December we will celebrate 4 years of being together :) Plus Im also helping my parents make their doctor appointments. So busy busy busy.

     

    Also mostly not been frequenting message boards as of late, have taken towards facebook since a LOT of my family & my husband's family have joined there recently.


  6. My leftovers from lunch yesterday. BBQ shredded chicken, mac & cheese & cole slaw from Winn Dixie's deli. I have gotten the hang ofmaking homemade pulled pork & beef, I gotta try to make pulled/shredded chicken or turkey one day! :congrats:

     

    Dont know what Im doing for dinner tonight yet because Mom & I have to drive to pick my brother up from the airport, since he is returning from CA. Hoping either the airport has decent food, or we get something on the way there.


  7. AAARRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!! "Rescue Pack's Theme", "Backpack's Theme", "Map's Theme", "Click the Camera's Theme"! I have changed them to less than child friendly versions in my head now, because I am going batty hearing them all the time! I try hard not to sing or sign them out loud :congrats: But I will admit I slipped once and paid for it since my 1 year old announced rather loudly the "a word +hat" in place of "Backpack" in the middle of the store when she saw Dora's backpack in the toy aisle. :clap: oops...

     

    But YES... those songs have been stuck in my head for MONTHS now!!! :(


  8. "Tell Me Why, I Bid On Shatner's Old Toupee..."

    Song: "eBay"

    Album: Poodle Hat

    "I'm fluent in JavaScript as well as Klingon." and "Only question I ever thought was hard was 'Do I like Kirk or do I like Picard?'"

    Song: "White & Nerdy"

    Album: Straight Outta Lynwood

    Additionally, in the music video for this song, the last shot is of Weird Al performing the Vulcan salute.

    I LOVE the song "White and Nerdy"!! My brother & I used to be able to sing it word for word! But then again, my brother & I sound a bit like the main subject of the song anyhow. LOL! Well, moreso when we were both younger we were a bit more nerdy.

     

    Can't say I am no longer a nerd, since my ex-coworkers used to pick on me because I was often seen/heard singing "eBay" in the break room & the pharmacy (I was a tech) when "I want it that way" would come on. Oh, well.

     

     

    Direct indirect references that are a bit more personal... though the inspiration for one of my daughter's names came from a character in two non-Trek movies, and my other daughter's name had other inspirations as well(inadvertantly mythological for both too, after I swore I was not going to do that on purpose). I realized recently my girls both have Trek related names. My younger daughter's is spelled different from a Trek character, and the other Trek character's name is a derivitive/diminutive form of my older daughter's name. LOL! Trek fan thru and thru I guess!


  9. I had a myspace page for a couple years, and my screenname would change randomly... but I quit earlier in the year (as did most of my family. My hubby and his family still go there, but anyways). I quit facebook too, but when I became pregnant with my 2nd child all my friends and family wanted updates so I went back on Facebook. Since to find me it is my real name and has family info on it I won't post the link here on the public forum. If you want to add me there, I would prefer a PM here ok and then I can give you the link to it :congrats: Especially since some of my family who have friended me on FB are still minors.


  10. At least a few of the guys who do Robot Chicken, though that probably has been mentioned a time or two (yeah a tad lazy and about to head to work so didn't re-read the entire thread). I think I have to go back and watch a few of the shows my daughter watches, because I swear it was a Nick Jr or Playhouse Disney character that referenced Trek somewhere


  11. I just read the email sent out by VBG, I remember Joe! Very sad to hear what happened, my condolences & prayers go out to his family & friends (online & off). He was a very sweet person, and was happy to post alongside him here. Was a very cool guy. I knew he was about my age.. didnt realize he was only a few days older than me :notworthy: He will be missed!


  12. Yes, multiple. Though they posted only for a short time. And we threw the mods here for a loop for that time because our accounts were all from the same/similar IP addresses. Also had my sister's best friend(she is pretty much family to us, to the point my sister counts her friend's daughter as a niece) join at almost the same time as my sister, brother and my brother in law :flowers: Though we dont discuss the last one being on here because he only did it as a prank on one of the other members here, even though he was and is a big fan of Star Trek.

     

    wookieofborg was my brother's last screenname here, EmilSoong was my sister's screenname, sexykitten69 was my sis's best friend. And like I said I am leaving my brother in law out of it...
