Television on the Edge of Forever
I completely missed the 45th anniversary of the premier of original Trek last week. For others who care, this is a great little article:

Warrior Princess Update
WP came through surgery fine yesterday. There were some problems with her blood pressure (nothing really unusual for any animal/person under anesthesia) but no serious complications. We didn’t visit her last night – didn’t want to stress her too soon after her surgery. There’s a chance we’ll be able to pick her up this evening….

Last night, on my way home from work, I was making a right hand turn onto a four lane highway. The light had just turned green, and while I wasn’t “jumping the light”, neither was I allowing more than a split second elapse from the time the light turned green until the time my right…

What a lovely walk down memory lane! Thank you! I was lucky, my Mom loved TOS, so I got to watch them all as a kid. One of my boyfriend "tests" has always been whether or not they enjoyed TOS. If they hadn’t ever watched, I’d turn it on and watch him watching the show. A bad reaction to the show, Shatner bad acting criticisms aside, meant that relationship was a no-go.
