Happy Birthday To Bill Shatner, Captain Kirk's Alter Ego

William Shatner, you sir have given us 50+ years of entertainment and we salute you. Let alone, we could have hardly asked for the 44 years of Trek, but your multitude of artistic expressions have been our pleasure to watch over the years. You sir are an actor, director, producer, web mogul, pitchman, equestrian, businessman, author, and the one and only Captain James T. Kirk.

We hope you have a wonderful birthday, Mr. Shatner!

Wil Wheaton has some serious geek cred.  He, of course, was the young Wesley Crusher on TNG.  He's also been in other "geek" loved movies including "Stand By Me" & "Toy Soldiers".  Well maybe that last one isn't loved, but nowadays he's built an empire of "geekdom" from the several books he's written ("Just a Geek", "Dancing Barefoot", "Memories of the Future") to starring in the extremely popular web series "The Guild".  Heck, he's even occasionally on "The Big Bang Theory".  Oh, and his ever popular blog.

Crewman Becky's Thoughts On Jumpsuits

Crewman Becky's Thoughts On Jumpsuits

Hi corporeal beings! Crewman Becky here. Have you ever noticed that the universe has been nearly completely taken over by jumpsuits? I don’t know about you, but I’m not really a big fan. Really, why are we wearing these polyester nightmares? Is it because “everybody else” is? Besides the obvious unflattering nature of the typical jumpsuit, they really are rather impractical.

I Shall Call Him Reginod. Star Trek Online Season One: Common Ground Update

A brand new update is headed our way for Star Trek Online.  Included in Season One: Common Ground are new Klingon ships, Federation PVP, off duty uniforms, new fleet actions, and you can now buy a Pakled from the C-Store.  Can you make our ship go?  We look for things.

Check out all the details for Season One: Common Ground below.
