    Star Trek's 'Sulu' beams out of closet

    Gee whiz, such a surprise. ;) But I bet George Takei is not the only one who's been hiding in the closets of the Enterprise! It may not be big news, but at least it's good news ... I'm always glad when someone famous comes out. Helps make the world a safer place for those who still live in...

    Pea's Cinna Buns from Heaven!

    Stopped by Pea's yesterday and, lo and behold, fresh out of the oven are made-from-scratch cinnamon buns. I knew the woman could cook, but I didn't realize she can also bake. I've decided to start being very, very nice to her to ensure that every time she creates something like this I get in...

    Island Summit a Success!!

    It appears the Canada/US relations are in fine form. Zenfisher and Edgewater made the trek from across the 49th up to Victoria to visit Peapod, Galianomoma and Cosmo. The summit was a success. We gleaned secrets about Rev ( :twisted: got all the goods), discovered Edge's sense of humour (or...

    Censorship or No?

    Both as a moderator and a forum member, I’ve been thinking about censorship recently. Simple topic, right? Nope. To make sure I understood the concept, I read various treatments of the topic by both sides of the coin. The architects of our very society argued this unendingly. I found out...

    For us Dummies

    Ran across a link in my travels that I found quite interesting ... for us less politically inclinded souls. I had a vague idea of who does what, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who doesn't understand American politics. Anyway, for us dummies, it is enlightening: The Directory of US...

    Red Cross ... Comments??

    I credit this find to Curiosity from another board ... pretty interesting. Obviously I support gay rights, but maybe the PC police went a bit far with this one? If it had been the other way around (gay man getting fired for commenting), there would be a huge outcry. To me equality is that ...

    Sick of Tom Cruise?

    I used to think he was ok ... now I think he's nuts. Check out this site: http://tomcruiseisnuts.com/home.php Gave me a chuckle. Our Top Gun has misfired, I fear!

    Right, Left ... where do you fit?

    Meandering around the web and found this little test. I'm not sure of its accuracy or if it carries a bias, but it's interesting. http://www.digitalronin.f2s.com/politicalcompass/index.php Mine was Libertarian Left: Economic Left/Right: -1.50 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.46 Guess I'm...

    Pizza

    RE: Yummmmmmmmmmmmm! Can't imagine low fat pizza!! We order quite often from Pizza Hut ... I always get black olives, pineapple and extra cheese. Unfortunately the dog ends up begging most of the pineapple and olives :)

    Binoculars

    I know absolutely nothing about binoculars, but we need a pair to watch the cruise ships passing by. Anyone got any suggestions for affordable ones? Or have any idea what the numbers (eg. 10 x 25) mean? We want to be able to see quite a ways. We're also considering a telescope instead -- one...

    Stressed Out?

    This guy is amazing ... I bought his book and receive his newsletter. We've corresponded via email and he's quite the character. Anyone with stress issues (especially work) might want to give his stuff a read. http://www.stressdoc.com/

    Alone in the Dark

    Just watched Alone In the Dark with Christian Slater and Tara Reid. Kinda cheesy movie, but fun. The best part was the soundtrack ... if you like metal, check it out. I have a list of the music if anyone wants to download. I also have a great free site for downloading, if anyone wants it. ;)

    Visa / MC Fraud again

    I got this story from another forum I am a member of and thought I'd pass it on ... it came to her via email, so I can't verify it, but thought it should be posted:

    White Noise

    Anyone seen "White Noise" with Michael Keaton? Very cool show! I'm a scary movie freak ... love em! Kind of interesting since it's based on a real technique used by ghost hunters. We also watched "National Treasure" which was a good romp, as was "In Good Company". As you can tell, I am a...

    ??New version of Messenger??

    Anyone using the newest version of Messenger? I'm gun shy about downloading it ... so many things conflict with Norton Internet Security!! Is it worth the hassle?

    Food

    Eeewwwww .... sea bugs! That's what I figure crab and lobster look like. I don't like shellfish of any sort. About once a year I do enjoy a nice Atlantic lobster tail with steak, but other than that, I don't eat the stuff. I'm a very picky eater ... I only eat halibut, mahi-mahi or, rarely...
