Birthday 2020
Monday , 6, July 2020 Family, Friends, Movies, Star Trek, Travel Comments Off on Birthday 2020This year’s birthday was a bit different, and not in a bad way. Usually I’m working somewhere on the road, but this year, thanks to COVID-19, I was able to be with some family and take a short, quarantined trip out of town. The day began with my middle granddaughter, Abby, making me a breakfast […]
Best Sci-Fi Film the Year You Were Born
Wednesday , 28, February 2018 Movies Comments Off on Best Sci-Fi Film the Year You Were BornHave you ever wondered what the best sci-fi film the year you were born might be? Neither have I, but once I saw this link my curiosity was piqued. Now, I’m a pretty big fan of the science fiction genre, from books to TV shows and movies, but I’ve never heard of this movie before, […]
So, if you follow me on Goodreads or see my status updates on Facebook of what I’m reading and where I’m at in the books I’m reading you know that I’m currently reading Walter Isaacson’s “Leonardo da Vinci”, the outstanding biography of the original Renaissance Man. I had no idea that there were plans to […]
Black Panther: The IMAX Experience
Monday , 12, February 2018 Movies Comments Off on Black Panther: The IMAX ExperienceI’m happy to say I have my ticket to see Black Panther: The IMAX Experience this Saturday at noon. I’ve been a fan of this character since he was first in the Fantastic Four comic book back in 1966 when I was 11. That character, created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, has undergone extensive […]

I Asked – Wil Wheaton Answered
Monday , 20, April 2015 Blogs, Family, Movies, Social Media, Star Trek 2 CommentsI’ve really come to love Tumblr because I keep finding more and more of the people I’m interested in over there. Writing, Comic Books, Science Fiction, Photography, and other interests of mine are well represented on Tumblr. My own Tumblr page consists of this blog (auto-post is great!), but it also contains things I find […]
Cold, Celtic Thunder, Fantastic Four & Jogging
Saturday , 31, January 2015 Comic Books, Health, Movies, Music Comments Off on Cold, Celtic Thunder, Fantastic Four & JoggingI’m finally beginning to feel human again, after a week of whatever this cold/flu illness was that I had. I’ve still got a bit of cough and congestion and I’m still feeling very tired, but at least I don’t have all those things magnified along with the aches, fever and headache I went through most […]
I’m not at Wolf’s Haven for the holidays this year, but one of these days I will be and when I am it will be a Carolina Christmas with the Squirrel Nut Zippers!
Severe Holiday Weather Alert
Tuesday , 23, December 2014 Holidays, Movies, Travel, Weather Events Comments Off on Severe Holiday Weather AlertReports are that severe weather over the holidays will affect ground and air traffic, so be especially careful during your travels.
