Inter-Galactic “Talk Like William Shatner” Day

Personal Captain James T. Kirk, talk like william shatner day, William Shatner 1 Comment
Today is William Shatner’s 80th birthday!
It’s also the 3rd annual
“Talk Like William Shatner Day”!
I’ll never pull that off, so I’ll just do my Spock impression…
I’ll stand there stoically, and raise one eyebrow at the appropriate moment.
Happy Birthday, Mr. Shatner!

It’s Super Moon! It’s tonight!
Tsunamis! Earthquakes! Werewolves! Really bad news reports!
The world may come to an end!
Or not.
The full moon that makes it’s appearance tonight will seem about 14% bigger than when it’s at it’s furthest distance from the Earth. The tides will be affected by maybe an inch in most places, and up to 6 inches in some geographically odd locales. Beachfront residents might want to move the chaise lounges back a foot, just to be safe.
It didn’t cause the recent Japanese earthquake. Any quakes that happen today won’t have been caused by it’s nearness.
There’s something you need to remember about the Moon, tonight’s super fullness, and the effect it has on the Earth.

This may be the palm tree version of painting one’s toenails. The flowers are growing on the trunk of the tree itself.
Trying To Make Pretty

commentary, Personal fruitless cherry tree, make pretty, one week, purple tree Leave a comment
Once a year, for about a week or two, this tree is pretty. It must just be putting on airs for the bees, because the rest of the year it’s an ugly purple mess. It’s a fruitless cherry tree, but apparently it’s not quite sure how that works, because every two years it tries to put out a crop of cherries. They don’t look very tasty, and even the birds don’t seem interested in eating them. I’ve threatened to cut it down, several times.
Veteran Speaks Truth To Power, Power Doesn’t Like It

commentary, News, video Isaac Soderstrom, MJC, Modesto Junior College Leave a comment
Veteran Isaac Soderstrom speaks out at a budget meeting in Modesto, California, March 9, 2011. Cuts to programs at the Modesto Junior College are creating controversy in the community. Mr. Soderstrom takes issue with the treatment of previous speakers. The board does not respond well, and the audience vocally supports him. The Chairwoman clearly does not understand what the best course of action should be, worried only that the “rules” be followed. The clip ends with Soderstrom escorted out by police.
