A Chance of a Lifetime

"Space. The Final Frontier. These are the voyages of the Starship Enterprise. It's ongoing mission: to explore strange new worlds, new civilizations. To boldly go where no one has gone before!"

Anyone that grew up in the late-80's/early-90's knows this as the first words we hear, spoken by the indomitable Jean-Luc Picard (read: Patrick Stewart), while the majestic USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-D) swells to dominate our 19-35" TV screens at the start of an hour-long adventure. If you're like me, those words brought a feeling of wonder and excitement! Not so much for what the characters of the show will run into, but more for the eye-candy and imagination fodder that only a trip into space could foster. As long as I could remember, my mind has been taking that fantastic voyage on a regular basis. As readers may note, I am much more partial to George Lucas' seminal space opera, but that does not mean I will overlook inspirations for my personal space fantasies.

Hey Kids! What time is it?

I cannot believe it has been almost two months since my last post! Man, what a slacker!

I have a post I was working on last month that I'll finish and get posted shortly. That and I just wanted to take a moment and wish all those out in Internet Land a safe and happy 4th of July! I extend my wishes to those that are overseas as well, especially US Military troops. You may not be home physically, but trust and believe that you are in all our prayers and thoughts.

To the rest of the world, I still wish you glad tidings! We may not celebrate all the same holidays, but may peace and prosperity be with you.

Random post this time, but look for more substantial material here, hopefully later today!

Cheers!
