I haven't been around because There's hardly anything new to discuss about Star Trek.

That, and I finally managed to create a MB that's successful. Takes up most of my online time.

Maybe all the religion discussion which go on here could move to your board, and we could get back to science fiction and fact.

Whatever.

You can have Trek. I'm growing a little tired of it's socialist ideology and secular humanist baloney anyway.

Wake me up when it's writers manage to produce something relevant.

So, tell me, do you and Michael Richard's share the same quality? Apparently he thinks it's okay to insult a man because of his skin color, while you insult me because of my faith. Either way, it's bigotry.

Pretty unbecoming of an "enlightened" person, eh ?

The local grocery market sells a couple dozen different flavors of Jones soda.

I've tried most of them. So far I only like the Green Apple and Cream. Can't imagine I'll like Green Pea. But what the heck. It's just a dollar. I might try it.

No.

Most of my friends are either only mildly interested in Trek or hate it altogether. They suffer my Trekkie ramblings with good humor, but they could just as well do without it.

Weirdos. :blink:

All I can say is that sometimes some of us get what we deserve.

I may watch Ent's re-runs. I think I saw all of 3 episodes during it's original run on UPN.

I used to be.

And the articles are nowhere near as neutral as Wikipedia would have you believe. Especially the political and religious articles.

Star Trek Cribs - The Directors Cut

Found this at Youtube.

:biggrin:

That does it....

Next time Moses points his staff at you.

Moses

I found these while surfing hobby & collectibles sites earlier today. Bible action figures.

Ha....and you thought your Darth Vader was tough. Just wait until he comes up against the power of the true "Force". I can just imagine Vader charging his light saber, then Moses looking at him, sighing, pointing his staff.....and wham! Vader is parted, like the Red Sea. :biggrin:

The Borg Queen isn't 7's mother.

I agree with many of the arguments presented by those who also feel this way in this thread.

Can somebody tell me how to place content to either side of the discussion forums on an Invisionfree board? My nephew wants me to do this for him and I just can't. I've asked for coding help at IF and on the IF boards I post at, but nobody's responded. Any help would be appreciated.

He basically wants to add little links off-site and such. Buttons.

While I enjoy Sandler's comedy albums and liked him on SNL. I can't say that I've ever really loved one of his films. The Water Boy being, possibly the sole exception. While there are very few Jim Carrey movies I don't like. The man's a comedic genius. I like watching old episodes of In Living Color just to see if I can spot the genius back in those old shows. And I can.

The dream end would have made me go insane.

I would have hated that.

I'm glad somebody squashed it.

I liked Q when he was dangerous. When you couldn't tell if he was just pestering Picard and humanity, or if he really constituted a serious threat. I hated it when he was goofing off and playing with the Enterprise crew (or Voyager).

Well, there goes my primary reason for watching Dr. Who regularly.

I still visit almost daily, but don't post much anymore.

I don't have much to talk about, I guess. Not relating to Star Trek anyway. Except for my fan fiction and I'm getting nowhere with that.....

I guess until some new Trek product comes down from on high I'll be floating around out in the ether.

You are now entering CALIFORNIA.

Hola! We hope you enjoy your stay in MEXICO.

Yeah, there is that. B)

After a morning of pitched combat (over the phone) with Pacific Gas & Electric, I finally convinced them that my new apartment does in fact exist.

Power will be switched on Monday morning. Which means I'll be about 48-hours without power in-between starting tomorrow night. Can't be helped.

So I'm going to buy my sister some sort of battery-powered fan. My nephew and I can sweat it out. Today has been hot, but not so bad as yesterday. And the humidity is also not as bad.

Heck, I used to weather summers in southeast Missouri. If I can handle Ozark humidity, Fresno will be a cake walk.

Other than that everything's super.

My buddy is going to help me finish hauling my stuff away in the morning. He was really busy today, otherwise I'd be moving now. 'till then I'm still at my old place, surrounded by cardboard boxes of all shapes and sizes, sitting on the floor tapping away at this keyboard.

Today (or rather, yesterday) was interesting.

I spent the first half of the day arguing with the local utilities company (monopoly). I called to transfer services to my new home. I gave them the address. They told me that the address didn't exist. So I called the property management company to confirm the addy. I had it right the first time. I called the utilities company back. And spent an hour arguing about whether or not my house existed or not. Which was funny as I was at the new house. Finally the utilities rep told me to call back tomorrow. A few moments later a technician from said company arrived at my new home and switched off the power (left on under the former tenants account). I told him what had happened. He laughed. Asked him to call his company and confirm the addy. He was too busy and left.

Now I suppose I'll spend tomorrow arguing about my home's existance again.

Friends helped me move about one-fifth of my belongings. We got a late start (not because of the call). We're finishing up Saturday. I had to come back to the old house until the power is restored at my new house.....as my youngest sister (who is handicapped) requires a cool, air conditioned environment. The temperature was nearly 100-degrees farenheit today (yesterday) with 80% humidity and zero wind. She would have cooked in the new place.

So, that's about all I did today......

BTW, I've been up since 8 a.m. Thursday morning. It is now 1:10 a.m. Friday morning. Insomnia.

And I have another busy day later on. Starting at eleven. (bangs head on pc monitor).

(MANVERU)

No. The local cops have abandoned the neighborhood, which is why its snowballed. Which is why I'm leaving. It's an election year here, so the local politicians are making a big deal of fixing roads and shaking hands, but they won't remember this part of town after the election. They never do.

(KOR)

Thanks! It looks pretty nice. And anyway, my neighbors are an elderly couple. Which is great since I'm looking forward to some peace and quiet. Here in the old neighborhood rap music starts blaring around 9 in the morning every weekend and keeps going until 2 a.m.

Well I'm moving again.

Just across town this time and not across the country. I've found a great little apartment in an upscale gated community in northeast Fresno. Where I presently live (central Fresno), the crime rate has exploded. I have to run heroine junkies and crack addicts out of my garage almost every other morning (they break in to use drugs and sleep...they've been pooping in my garage as well. Yeah, real nice.) And I can't let my younger relatives play in the backyard anymore because of all the used syringes, condoms, and other such items tossed over the fence from the alley. There's prostitution, and overly aggressive panhandlers at every corner market. The usual crap that goes on in such neighborhoods. Anyway, I'm outta here noon tomorrow.

I should have my Internet services back up 'n running next week at the latest. I hope. B)

Until then, God bless everybody!

I've been spending a lot of time at the 3 Christian boards I belong to.

There are a lot of "unique" individuals there with whom I've been discussing (arguing) and debating (jihad) theology with.

I do love butting heads with atheists and pagans. I should be ashamed of myself. NOT!!!!

Anyhoo, I still visit STF everyday, but I don't post much anymore. I just can't think of anything new or interesting to say. B) And since I don't like Spam, I don't post unless I have something to contribute to a thread, or have a question to ask.

I found this on the 'Net, while looking for images of Trek ships. I really like it. The saucer section seems to be made for that stardrive section.....wow. James Kirk would probably have a heart attack is he were to see this ship. But I like it so much, I'm thinking of using it for some new fan fiction.

Preaching the gospel of salvation in Christ.

There's no higher calling for me.

Before I was myself you made me, me

With love and patience, discipline and tears,

Then bit by bit stepped back to set me free,

Allowing me to sail upon my sea,

Though well within the headlands of your fears.

Before I was myself you made me, me

With dreams enough of what I was to be

And hopes that would be sculpted by the years,

Then bit by bit stepped back to set me free,

Relinquishing your powers gradually

To let me shape myself among my peers.

Before I was myself you made me, me,

And being good and wise, you gracefully

As dancers when the last sweet cadence nears

Bit by bit stepped back to set me free.

For love inspires learning naturally:

The mind assents to what the heart reveres.

And so it was through love you made me, me

By slowly stepping back to set me free.

* this is my first Mother's Day without my mother. This is for her, and for all of the other mother's here at STF. I don't think any of you realize how much you mean to your kids. God bless.

And no, I didn't pen this poem. I'm not that talented.
