It's certainly good that they were able to retrieve their one and only grenade.Now if they can just remember whose turn it is to keep the bullet so at least they know where that is.

nevermind

Well my old one (statstarter) was because I am one of the founders of the Star Trek Association of Towson (the folks that bring you Shore Leave ) and Shore Leave's first convention chairman. The treason for the new one is that just oldfan was already taken and I an old and a fan, I watched Star Trek TOS when is was in first run and as I get more grey in the hair and more body aches I feel old.

The only way that having autographed pictures on you wall would be weird is if they are all in the same handwriting.......YOURS.

Wesley Crusher getting shoved out an airlock while not wearing a spacesuit.
Too bad, it would be funny.

After all those years happily together with his partner why would he want to screw it up with marriage? To each his own.

I don't think I'll be going to the chat room anymore. I got tired of "we need more chicks, we need more women .... etc" I'm pretty sure you know who that came from.

Iced Tea, Arizona green tea with honey and ginsing.....good stuff

Kor if your routes include Essex or Rosedale try and buy your fuel in that area, it seems to be the cheapest around Baltimore.

A couple of posts have talked about the characters in the original series being too perfect or perfect, they were far from perfect. Adama had a temper but kept it under control for the most part but it did show at times. Starbuck drank (ambrosia), smoked (fumerellos) gambled (pyramid) cussed (frack and felgercarb) had a temper and was a womanizer (Athena and Cassiopeia for starters). Starbuck never did anything to deliberately hurt a person but it did happen and he did his best to make things right. Apollo cussed (frack and felgercarb) he had a bit of a temper and was rather headstrong. Cassiopeia started out as a socialator (escort/companion) and later became a medic.
They all had their flaws but used them to make themselves stronger for it, after all Trek told us that the darker side of our personality helps make us stronger if it is properly controlled.

The first season of WKRP is available to watch on hulu.com. I could start up the WKRP version of the Gilligan's Island quandry............ Who's better Jennifer or Bailey? Personally I prefer Bailey

I will avoid the easy and obvious bad puns that will get me in trouble and ask if this shouldn't be classified as a Van Roy moment?

I am a big fan of the original series, it had drama, comedy, action and human interest. I even had Boxey and the daggit as a draw for the kids to watch.
Many people say that it was cheesy and it wasn't, you have to remember when it was made, television standards and rules for violence and sex were far more stringent then than they are today.
Back then CGI for effects was in a dream they had, look at TRON and The Last Starfighter a few years later they were the beginning of CGI. Battlestar's effects were state of the art then.
The show had a morality base because of Glen Larson's Mormon religion.
I think the show still stands as one of the best pieces of television science fiction ever made.

They may have added vitamins and reduced the sugar but I'll bet it still tastes like

The mirror universe uniforms were fantastic if you had the body for them and at that time they did.
Off topic..... As much as I liked them, from years of going to conventions I have seen a lot of fans wear them that DON'T have the body for them

Don't forget the curse of the odd numbered TOS movies, any with an odd number did not do as well as the even numbered ones. No matter how you count it this is an odd numbered movie, it's either Star Trek XI or the 7th TOS movie if you count this as TOS.
