So, new week, new posts.

As I said last week, I want to post at least one thing each day – I’m hoping this counts as my one thing for the day. It’s not an actual entry, I’ll admit that upfront. It’s more an appetizer, a menu of the entries that will be posted this week.

First up, tomorrow I’ll be posting my thoughts on the brand new Nintendo DSi. After giving one to Nadia for her birthday, I had to get one for myself. Was it worth it? Is it worth replacing a DS Phat/Lite with one of these? Find out my thoughts tomorrow!

Wednesday, a rant on the scourge of the English language- How “you know” has seemingly replaced “um” in most peoples spoken vocabulary.

Thursday, I’ll drop my thoughts on the Fallout 3 expansion “Broken Steel” – does the new “ending” fit the game better, and is the new content worth the ten bucks?

And, finally, Friday will be a nice review of the new Star Trek movie. I’ll be seeing the movie – along with Nadia, Rosenberg, Tabby and (maybe) Bighead and my Dad – so I’ll include a wide array of viewpoints on the movie. Everyone from the die-hard Trekkie to new-comers will be represented in this no-holds barred discussion on what is my most anticipated movie of the summer.

So, stick around this week – as you can see, there’s loads of stuff worth reading headed your way.

Warp Core Breach : Best Drink in Existence

Warp Core Breach : Best Drink in Existence

I’ve found it! I’ve finally found it!

After months of looking, I’ve found the fabled recipe for the Best Drink Ever: the Warp Core Breach, once proudly served in Quarks Bar and Grill at the Star Trek Experience.

I remember one night, a month and change before the place shut down, Rosenberg and I hit the place up for a visit… and we got to talking to the bartender, who promised that the recipe would find it’s way online.

Well, today I had a bit of slow time at work… I did a Google query, and found it nestled deep on a Trek BBS somewhere on the interwebs. (more…)

I was talking to Nadia about this just last night, but it’s good to see yet more news on it…

According to “sources”, the Star Trek Experience could re-open as soon as May! Of course, the catch there is it’d just be the restaurant, bar and gift shop – the rides would come later.

Personally, I’m just excited that there’s more forward momentum on this thing… The STE was pretty much my favorite thing to hit in town, and I’m just excited as hell to see it again.

Also: WARP CORE!

Best. Drink. Ever.

Ladies and Gents, I give you: Your great-great-great-great-etc grandthing.

This is presumed to be what all other life on Earth evolved from. Something to do with DNA and Midiclorines, honestly I’m not too up on the science behind it.

So, I guess this is what those weird aliens used for seeding.
