This month’s header is about education/school
September is often the month we think of as “Back To School.” I’ve always wondered why because I grew up in the Midwest and we started during the last week of August with a three-day weekend (Labor Day) to take … Continue reading
Let’s hear it for Wonder Woman
Technically, Diana’s 75th birthday was last year because her comic book debut was 1941 but let’s just say it took a while for comics to get distributed plus DC is doing all the cool stuff this June. She’s also a … Continue reading
May is traditionally Summer Movie Season’s start!
Let’s hear it for PhotoFunia again! I thought this art was frickin’ awesome because May has been the West’s traditional kickoff month off the Summer Movie Season since like forever. Well, I’ll go out on a limb and say 1975 … Continue reading
This month’s header (April 2017)
Going with an Eighties look thanks to PhotoFunia. No particular reason though. I just thought it was impressive. A bit heavier on detail than Patrick Nagel’s work.
Another header from Photofunia
I forgot to mention the site being responsible for last month’s header. For February, the best thing they had to celebrate Valentine’s Day (formerly Lupercalia) was a pair of rusted padlocks, something people have for years in Paris’ Pont des … Continue reading
Final Star Trek header for the anniversary
The last televised version of Star Trek, Enterprise gets an unfair shake. Despite it being filled with continuity holes unlike all the other shows, I felt Captain Archer and the crew really got rolling some time in the second season. The whole space … Continue reading
November finally
Well the ‘finally’ is my bit covering the header in the spirit of Star Trek. The second incarnation of Voyager when they ditched Kes and replaced her with a former Borg. I had stopped watching the show by then but thought it … Continue reading
Alright September!
This month it’s the show which helped launch the short-lived UPN (Paramount Nnetwork I know a lot of people like to dump on Star Trek Voyager but it was a difficult premise to maintain, namely over how do you replace lost … Continue reading
This month’s header, DS9 final
No luck finding a picture of the seventh season’s cast that was wide enough for the header but I think I made a good try. Not sure why the hell a space station would need a counselor when they’re orbiting … Continue reading
For June, kind of a part two
ST:NG in their final TV incarnation of the primary crew wearing the nicer uniforms with the high collars.
A new month, new header for Star Trek
For May we’re finally up to the first incarnation of Star Trek: The Next Generation which took up the torch from Kirk’s crew in 1987 on TV. The first season was shaky thanks to Roddenberry recycling his less interesting ideas from Star Trek: … Continue reading
Happy April!
I decided to let April Fool’s Day go. Miette may be 17 but she’s hanging in there with her thyroid issue and Apple turning 40 didn’t really inspire much. Couldn’t think of a good prank neither. The header above is … Continue reading
Welcome to March Star Trek
This month’s header is the third incarnation of <i>Star Trek</i>. You may recognize (unfortunately) the uniforms and cast from the horrible 1979 film which could’ve prevented the story from continuing until Nicholas Meyer and Harve Bennett saved the franchise. It … Continue reading
Weird Science turns 30 today
Weird Science probably isn’t on the short list of great John Hughes’ movies due to its audience being somewhat smaller in range than The Breakfast Club or Ferris Bueller’s Day Off; the poor, oppressed teenage boys who get beaten up. A demographic that … Continue reading
This month’s theme is Pluto!
New Horizons will finally zoom by Pluto, get pictures and other data but I’m confident the whole planet debate will continue. As I’ve said before, I am with the ASU’s position of it is not. The loudest voices in the is camp … Continue reading
