At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us. — Albert Schweitzer

It’s Wonderful! Marvelous! Fantastic! Spectacular! Terrific!

My older daughter, Zoë, is enamored with words and their literal meanings.  We’ll sit and watch a movie together and she starts laughing at the most mundance sentences.  Awhile ago, as we watched a Star Trek: Enterprise episode, she could barely contain her glee at the phrase “tractor emissions” — she was visualizing actual John [...]

The end of our Star Trek Journey… or just the beginning

On the Cover of a Magazine…

Ever since I was a child listening to Dr. Hook’s “The Cover of the Rolling Stone”, I’ve thought it would be super fun to have my face on the cover of a magazine.  Now with green screen technology (and the fun magazine overlays that came with it), I’m able to do just that.  Here are [...]

Happy Groundhog Day!

This is such an exciting year for my family; Super Star Trek Sunday and Groundhog Day are back-to-back!  We spent yesterday watching Star Trek, playing Star Trek games, doing a Starfleet Academy Training Course, doing Star Trek trivia questions, eating Star Trek inspired foods, and most of all: enjoying the company of our friends who [...]
