Star Trek: The Universal Thread

Just in case you haven't had your daily dose of total weirdness:

I think I'm starting to get my threads mixed.

I actually bought one of William's CDs, Has Been when it came out. I found other CDs by him on the net since then & DLed em. I like Has Been the best thou. He did one song with Leonard Nimoy on Has Been called, I Cant Get Behind That. I need to look for Leonard's CDs. A lot of people may not know this but Patrick Stewart also did a CD. It was only a few western songs that he did for charity. I cant find the DL anywhere even on pay sites & think it was only released as a physical CD. I really should get around to buying it.

The only one of these weird recordings I've really listened to before is his famous "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds." I suppose if somebody said to me, "Would you like to make a few thousand dollars for reading something aloud for 15 minutes," I'd say yes too. It's definitely bizarre.

Very good Discovery episode.

Should've put this one up for Pi Day. (I think they're eating pie, but I can't be sure.)

Well I almost guessed the Red Angel, but not quite.

Happy First Contact Day!

Good lord, that last episode of Discovery!

As a person who will one day end up the same way, I am a Captain Pike fan. I was so pleased to see how they honored that storyline. Pike is a BOSS. Showin’ um how you do it in the Prime universe, assuming that is where Discovery is really taking place. Integrity, sacrifice, commitment. That is what Star Fleet is all about.

I kind of wish they were not doing the “sexy Spock” angle again, but like my husband says, his voice really does sound a lot like Nimoy’s. He’s a good character on his own. I keep trying to imagine him playing the lute and I guess I can, so maybe he’s not a bad cast.

I’m also constantly impressed with the Orville. That storyline with Isaac was hard as F. And I love that my boy Norm MacDonald is finally doing well on a show.

^ I really don't like the appearance they have given the Klingons in this series. They look plastic – neither scary nor realistically alien. The premise way back at the beginning about the Klingon religion was promising, but they haven't developed it well.

"Antimatter supply exhausted. No hope for escape from this planet."

Haven't seen Discovery yet and I am waiting to start once Big Bang is over and then I am devote my attention to being a Trekkie. I also need to watch the rest of TOS and then start on Next Gen because Star Trek is great.
