Stuff about me!

See my complete profile

 

It's Wednesday night and I'm done work for the day. I'm listening to my hometown radio station 630 CHED. I like talk radio and my radio station broadcasts my Edmonton Oilers hockey games and Edmonton Eskimo CFL football games. I just realized that I haven't provided my website address. It's called Michael's Domain.

Anyway Enterprise's The Expanse season finale was last week and I wasn't too impressed with the episode. The episode's teaser was interesting though as the alien satellite cut a swatch through southern Florida. Yikes! In 150 years my apartment will be obliterated! But it didn't have the impact like the devastation that the Borg left behind on other planets. I can't help but compare the show to other incarnations. In fact I was reading Star Trek Chronology: The History of the Future. I noticed that Gene Roddenberry wanted Spock to be the only Vulcan serving in Starfleet. I think he also meant for Spock to be the first Vulcan in Starfleet. So I will be furious if T'Pol resigns from the Vulcan High Command and somehow gets a Starfleet Comission!

I'm managing to work out twice a week and today would be my regular night for it. But since I'm not feeling well I'll take the night off. Last night we had a tremendous amount of rain (about a foot) that caused the airport to briefly close. Several streets flooded too. I've started scanning photos from my trips and one day hope to have my travel journals transcribed with accompanying photos. Hopefully my next blog will have the first installment of my 2000 Middle East trip. I've been contemplating buying a Dell laptop - one day I'm sure I will. With the amount of money that I've spent repairing my car I could have bought five laptops!

Darcy discovered the Friday Fiveness website. It looks fun so I'll play too. May 23 questions and my answers are:

1. Brand of toothpaste I use is whatever major brand is on sale but usually

crest, colgate or Aim.

2. Brand of toilet paper I prefer is whatever brand is available at the dollar

store - I don't prefer a brand.

3. Brand of shoe(s) I wear are Rockport (daily) and sometimes Dr. Marten's. I

actually have two pairs of Docs.

4. Brand of soda (pop for people from Western Canada) I drink is A&W

rootbeer and Coke.

5. Brand of gum I chew is Wrigley's Extra Polar Ice.

Well that's all for now - until next time...
