here. her3.

Here, her3.
To sunrises spent in the arms of the woman I love
The voice I know
The wonder she brings to the simple things.

Here, her3.
To making love all night, then fucking it up
Secret whispers born in welcome ears, held close
By eager fists and willing lips pursed tight
Against unwelcome assumptions and misunderstandings

Here, her3.
To changes and traditions and mountains in distances
And knowing we were heard though we didn’t say a word
Our thermal signatures burned forevermore
Into the eyes of our peers and subordinates
And others whom do not matter

Here, her3.
My love.
To learning your evanescent subtleties
Over hot chocolate coffee blends, the celebrant song
Of the coyote, the distant patterns Orion built, and
Wind song storms that showed us the proper way to

Rage against the machine.

what it isn’t.

I’ve spent a lot of time
Carving out the big pieces
Whittling the details
Sanding the edges
Polishing the rough spots
And staining the surface
I am still working out the significance
But I know a lot about what it isn’t …

star trek into darkness.

No if, ands, or buts about it; Star Trek Into Darkness was epic.

Legen’ — wait for it — ‘dary!!

I loved it from the start.

Went to see the midnight showing last night, and I am definitely intending to see it in 3-D, IMAX, and a special viewing on the moon, if I can arrange it.

I don’t just highly recommend you see this movie, I insist upon it.

My Lady, who is not even into the whole “Sci-Fi nerd scene,” loved it. She even went so far as to say, it made her want to see all of the other Star Trek movies.

This movie isn’t just a success; it is entertainment evolution.

It has everything a nerd grrl could want: great graphics, hot chix, hot dudes, fist fights, explosions, alien races, martial arts-esque combat scenes, allusions to previous plot lines, and more.

… there were even tribbles.

Yes.

Tribbles.

Kirk was rebellious. Spock was as dynamic as ever. Bones was chock full of eyebrow-scrunching metaphors. Sulu sat in the chair. Scotty was loud and brilliant as always.

And let’s face it … this most likely isn’t the last time we see Kahn.

I can’t wait for more.

There are plenty of nay-sayers out there, but don’t let them fool you. This movie is a great step in a new direction for a decades-old franchise. When the nay-sayers can write a multi-billion dollar franchise, and ensure its global success across generations of fans; then perhaps, I’ll give them an ear.

Until that time comes …

Live long and prosper, my friends.
