Wil Wheaton's blog entry

I follow Wil on Twitter, he tweeted today about Majel's death.

She was one of my favorite people in the Star Trek Universe.

my wish list...

My mother keeps saying, "I haven't gotten a list from you yet"

Which means, 'If you want a christmas gift... you'd best better tell me what you want' 

Yeah, she really talks that way.

Okay, Mom... here's ONE of my wish lists:

I really like the proliferation of "Wishlist" features on websites.  If for no other reason than they remind me of stuff I'd like to buy when I have the bucks.  

I just placed two new items on the Amazon wish list, the Nosferatu (The Ultimate Two-Disc DVD Edition)  and Metropolis (Restored Authorized Edition).

Here is my Gaiam.com gift registry

And my Barnes & Noble wishlist. 

Goodbye, Arthur...

...I've loved you for as long as I can remember!

Arthur C. Clarke died on the morning of March 18, 2008 having completed "90 orbits around the sun". He had been suffering from breathing problems. (Wikipedia)

"If we have learned one thing from the history of invention and discovery, it is that, in the long run--and often in the short one--the most daring prophecies seem laughably conservative."

-Arthur C. Clarke

Bon Voyage, Sir Arthur!
