We've Commissioned!

This was posted to the Region Six Yahoo Group list on June 28. Admiral Urvand mentions there will be an official notice, that has not happened in the week since this was first posted. I doubt it will ever happen.

"- I'll have the official notice out in a day or so, but I had the pleasure of commissioning the USS Vre'kasht, NCC-33187 into service.Congratulations to her crew!

- With the commissioning of Vre'kasht, I am pleased to announce that T'Plon has been promoted to the rank of Captain and Siran has been promoted to the rank of Commander. Congratulations to you both!

Mr. Spock: The 'Mystery of Masculinity' Embodied

I found this interesting story on the NPR Web site.

by Neda Ulaby
Weekend Edition Sunday, June 1, 2008 · When Gene Roddenberry created the TV series Star Trek, the suits at NBC had some advice: "Lose the Martian."

They were talking about Spock.

But Mr. Spock went on to become the most beloved half-alien in network history. In fact he went on to become, well, one of the most fascinating fictional characters on TV.

Fascinating — four syllables and one arched eyebrow — that's Spock, just as much as his pointy Vulcan ears.

The first time actor Leonard Nimoy said the word was in an episode where the crew of the USS Enterprise faced a strange, sinister entity. No matter where the ship turned, the object managed to be in their way. The bridge was on high alert — so Nimoy shouted out his next line with the same energy: "Fascinating!"

"The director, God bless him, said be different from everyone else," Nimoy remembers. So on the next take: "Fascinating," in that cool, collected way.


As you can tell from the title of this blog, I am Vulcan. And mention of Vulcan or Vulcans catches my attention. Spock was my favorite character on the original series.

"Fascinating" is a word I use for the unexpected. "Interesting" shall suffice here. - Spock

A cool site.

I found this cool site linked to from the Where's George? forum, my other hobby. It is called My Mini City. A person can create their own city or just visit any city every day and that will increase the population or which ever link is clicked. As the city grows the buildings increase on the page for the city. My city is called Vulkansu. As I write this the population is one. Help me out and grow my city! As the city grows the other links become available so that other city functions can grow too.

CafePress Store

"Computer begin recording,

CO's log, stardate: 61627.5

After weeks of work and weeks of waiting the USS Vre'kasht now has a CafePress store on the Internet. It's a way to raise funds for ship improvements and such. The store can be found here. If you like what you see buy as much as you want. We'll make more.

Computer save recording and end."
