    Just Saying Hello

    It's been some time (many years) since my last posting. Just thought I'd drop in - it's nice to see this place still humming with activity. I'm well, and hope all of you are well! And just for fun here is picture of new puppy, Zelda.

    Wordle addiction

    I actually think it's a big part of why the game went viral the way it has. It feels very "retro," the way everyone's results get posted to a family text chain remind me of my great grandfather doing crosswords. Then the way you can share with emoji blocks that do not reveal the answer is...

    Last movie you saw?

    My wife and I just watched "Girl, Interrupted" for the first time - kind of randomly. It was excellent. A lot of familiar faces, too - actresses who became famous much later (Elisabeth Moss).

    What religion/faith are you?

    I seem to have landed on, "I'm not sure, I don't know - not enough evidence." I do tend toward the belief that there is a greater consciousness/design bigger than ourselves (and even humanity in general) - but that's more of a "gut feeling" than a belief. And I'm not hostile toward religion, I...

    Added the tag to the post (please do so to your screenshot, too). Sorry about that!

    Wordle addiction

    That’s fair - can you add it to the subject line? I can’t seem to edit that or add the tag retroactively.

    Wordle addiction

    I think you missed the point of including a spoiler warning… that was a polite way to let people know they should avoid if they’re still looking to solve today’s puzzle. This is a joke - I love Wordle :).

    This is getting out of control: (Spoiler: today's Wordle)

    I'm still alive!

    Hey everyone -- Long time no chat. Just checking in to say hey -- I've got a little son now and just enjoying life. Discovery is cool. Orville is cool. But way excited about a new Picard series. How is everyone doing? Anyone still around from when I used to post? :D -- Danoz

    PS4 VR & STAR TREK: Bridge Crew

    So my wife surprised me this year with a VR headset for my PS4. I love the thing. Anyone else here playing with VR? Is the Star Trek game worth it? I kind of want to get it, but my read is that it's best if you are playing with multiple headsets -- which seems borderline impossible given I know...

    Jake Sisko - Completely Unlikeable

    So I liked him. It would've been easy to write the character as a strong, confident, mini-Sisko ready to walk in Dad's Starfleet Command footsteps. Instead, he's complex. He makes mistakes. He's smart, and yes -- fairly dramatic and annoying, but he's a real character. And he commands his...

    Jumping back in to DS9 Relaunch (Where to start?)

    Warpath was great, too. Again I fell off the relaunch bandwagon right after Fearful Symmetry.

    Jumping back in to DS9 Relaunch (Where to start?)

    I loved the Worlds of Deep Space Nine. I don't think I need to re-read them, they were really absorbing short stories (I especially loved the Ferenginar one for some reason. Really painted picture, but Keith is a great writer). I ended up hopping on Amazon and bought everything from Soul Key...

    Is Trek Well Suited to Movies?

    Agree. This is actually my biggest beef with the Kelvin Universe movies. They feel like comic strip super heroes in the latest Marvel reboot, fighting evil mustache-twirling villains. Benedict Cumberbatch was victim of a weak script. Where's is Khan's humor? His humanity? His love of poetry...

    Why Didn't People Like Jadzia Dax?

    I never saw it that way. Writers can introduce new likes and interests in later seasons that simply haven't come up before -- people are complicated. And we already knew Jadzia Dax had several lifetimes of experiences, so this just isn't really a valid criticism to me.

    Which "job" on DS9 would you most like to have?

    Hm. I think I'd open a gastropub to compete with Quark's bar.

    What are you reading?

    I just finished Wool and have already jumped straight into "Shift." Really good stuff.

    Is Trek Well Suited to Movies?

    The fact that the TOS and TNG movies feel like big TV episodes is precisely why I like them. Insurrection was one of my favorite Trek movies because it felt like a two-parter with the characters I had come to love so much. It's because they are a continuation of the series. The new movies are...

    Anybody Not Interested In Sports?

    I like sports, as in -- I enjoy attending football, baseball, and hockey games on occasion (once or twice a year). I really enjoy when my cousins who play football or basketball are actually in the games. But I just can't dedicate time to becoming fluent in the day in, day out memorization of...

    Why Didn't People Like Jadzia Dax?

    I'm not sure I'd call it a "total reboot." For me to completely worked, it revealed the layers and depth of her character.
