A post on the *Star Trek Enterprise* BBS: The new Pope’s first official statement contains a call for Viacom to produce a 5th season of “Star Trek Enterprise” and describes “Star Trek” as “a beacon of hope throughout the world. Legion are the stories of youth receiving their first moral and vocational instruction from the […]
Monday got away from me, so the post about *Hard Time: Season 2* will have to wait a day or so while I catch up on work. Meantime, allow me to plug a project with which I have no association at all, except as a reader. If you’re a fan of Golden or Silver Age […]
I’m testing a new anti-comment spam plugin that doesn’t require entering a security code. If it works, this will make things easier for everybody.
