Ok, at the risk of sounding like a filthy casual, it's only now when I'm digging into Memory Alpha that I realized we're finally getting visualization of what Pike was so miserable about in TOS the Cage. I was like, why does Rigel VII sound so familiar...

This is the kind of retcon I live for!!

It’s like they’ve followed the scam of the night market.

Speaking of night market, can you believe it's $8 this year??! WTF??

Oh good, we didn't pre-purchase tickets. We live within walking distance so I guess it's no loss for us to take a walk to the park to check it out and then decide whether we want to go in or keep going to Crystal Mall/Metrotown.

Holy crap... TIL that the USA has a specialized savings account for medical expenses. Like... if they know it's inevitable that people have to spend money for their health in one way or another, this is kinda like the ultimate "Don't care if you die or suffer" attitude. Surely the bureaucracy to figure out the tax codes behind this kind of thing would costs more than just implementing universal health care... wouldn't it?

You could try F as in Frank. Your best bet will probably be vintage stores if you're specifically looking for local shops. Otherwise, I'm sure you can get aloha shirts at Old Navy, Winners, etc. TBH, you'll probably not find many outside of the big box stores because our coastal style is very different than what you see in Hawaii.

Nah, I'm just taking the piss. I even played games on the really old, really FLOPPY 5.5" disks. Wheel of fortune... good times, good times.

Some lesser quality Futurama is still better than no Futurama

I often feel so gross after going into the water at any beaches in Vancouver proper. Barnet Marine Park is my preferred spot to take a niiiiiiiice cold dip in the highest heat of summer.

I guess we should take a step back, then to determine whether this as a person existed. If the person as an individual didn't, then perhaps it was a group of buddies named Kim, Nyguen, and Singh. Probably a stretch, though.

I'm just wondering if there are no photographs or any other of Roddenberry's war buddies can corroborated this guy's existence. Should he also not have shared wartime stories with his children and wife? AFAIK, they haven't shared any information but it's also possible that no one had asked them.

Drama only exists when people aren't kind to each other. So, no thanks?
