Star Trek: Boldly Going For 60 Years

I have been a Star Trek fan all my life. This series taught us how to explore strange new worlds and to seek out new life and new civilizations. Gene Roddenberry gave us this gift that has changed the hearts and minds of many. This TV show gave birth to movies and TV prequels and sequels that have inspired and entertained millions.

Trek taught us infinite diversity in infinite combinations and to live long and prosper. I am thankful that I had heroes like Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Scotty, Uhura, Sulu, and Chekov to show me the way of being a nerd and that logic matters. This show has also given us Picard, Burnham, Janeway, Archer, Sisko, Freeman, Ake, and Pike. Thank you to everyone who has put on the uniform of Starfleet.

Tonight to celebrate, we are watching The Undiscovered Country which is the last movie with the original cast.

Happy Labor Day

To all celebrating Labor Day today may the work you do make the world a better place. Also may you be compensated well for the labor you do. Thank you for keeping the world running.

Wordless Wednesday

Happy Birthday to Me!

Today is my 57th birthday. I have chosen to grow old but not to grow up. Life is more fun that way. Being yourself is good. It’s been quite the life, if you ask me. I am thankful and humbled.

Birthday At Work

My birthday is tomorrow and this greeted me at work this morning. I’m very touched and grateful for my coworkers.

Rest in Power Dolly Parton

Dolly Parton, an icon, a saint and most importantly a storyteller from Tennessee passes away at age 80. This is a very sad day for the world she helped make better. Rest in power Dolly. We will always love you.
