More Pony Besties, Please!

Posted on August 26, 2015 by afolhusband Posted in Horsing around with My Little Pony Leave a comment

Recently, Hasbro announced the release of five sets of ponies based on best friends in entertainment history.

MLP Bumblebee & Optimus Prime at Second Geekhood

Personally, I need Optimus Prime and Bumble Bee, and Lavern and Shirley.  Hopefully, Hasbro will release more BFF pony pairs for next year’s Friendship Day. If they do, here are my suggestions:

Kirk and Spock:  “You are, and shall always be, my friend.”

Xena and Gabrielle:  Have you ever noticed how similar Sunset Shimmer’s path is to Xena’s?

The Skipper and Gilligan:  Probably as close to sea ponies as we’ll ever get.

 

 

Fred and Barney:  Talk about “Friendship Through the Ages!”

Mr. Ed and Wilbur:  Now this has possibilities.  They could do Mr. Ed as a pony and Wilbur as an Equestrian guy, or they could mix it up and make Mr. Ed an Equestrian guy and Wilbur as a pony.  I guess it depends on which side of the mirror you’re on.  Boggles the mind, don’t it?

Have any other BFF suggestions?  Leave them in the comments.

Remembering Mr. James Doohan

Posted on July 20, 2015 by CaptZenos Posted in Geekworld Leave a comment

James Doohan on Second GeekhoodIt’s hard to believe it has been 10 years since we lost Mr. Doohan. It seems like yesterday when we found out about his death. And with so many other Trek cast members passing recently, I wanted to pay my respects to the greatest Chief Engineer in Starfleet. Rest well James, we will see you again in the real Final Frontier.

I Now Pronounce You Nerd & Geek

Posted on June 27, 2015 by TimeSiren Posted in TimeSiren's Time Rants Leave a comment

Are you lucky to enough to be engaged or married to a Geek? I was – 26 years ago May 21st.

3 Culmination of geek mating ritual for TimeSiren and AFOL Husband at second geekhoodIt was the happiest day of my life, because when I was a newly-minted Star Wars fan back in 1977, the boy fans around me were zit-ridden and not interested in me. Sure, they were fans, but we were all too young to seriously think about settling down yet. I mean, c’mon, I was 14 when the bloody thing came out!

Luckily, Geek attracts Geek, and so when my wonderful AFOL Husband, Dennis Amador Cherry, wandered into my roommate’s home to scout out my friend Glen’s place for a shoot for his USC Cinema Television project, I looked out the window and saw his Ford Pinto. It was painted up like the the U.S.S. Enterprise and had the license plate, “ENPRISE”.

It would have been better if he had worn a geek T-Shirt, but this was 26 years ago and they were still scarce in those days. He took being on location very seriously, sporting a tie and jacket – a little worrying back then, but I soon had him out of his clothes…

…er I MEAN, he came to our first date more appropriately attired. We hit Farrell’s Ice Cream Parlor and caught the midnight showing of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. I was the LOUDEST heckler in the room, screaming “NAKED!” during strategic times during “Damn It, Janet.” By the time he drove me home, I was utterly mortified that I had gotten so into the movie and showed off the insanely funny new heckles I had learned watching it in Berkeley, CA (Or Bezerkely, as the locals call it).

As we said goodnight, I knew that was it, game over, man. I had cluster-f*cked up this date on an epic scale…and then a miracle happened.

He came back for a second date.

I tried to play it a little more low-key, exposing him to Weird Al Yankovic’s song, “Another One Rides the Bus”. I was on the floor laughing –  making a fool of myself, yet again, but again, it didn’t scare him off. Why? Because he had been out with the mundane – dated the Tupperware and Avon ladies and they were, in his words, “boring!”

Thank God!

7 More nerd friends herding at the reception at Second GeekhoodSo, he came into my life and I introduced Dennis to my new, nicer, but just as demented friends in a local Star Trek fan club. The fans came and went, but we still dated and eventually one of those Trekkies/Trekkers became a guest at our wedding and is still local, alive and a friend we see at the Gallifrey One convention every year – Jennifer Cole.

So to all the Geek Girls out there…stick with your own kind. Fans breeding with other fans will results in the best outcome: more little fans!

Data’s surprise for Picard

Captain's Woman ST:TNG crossover with Doctor Who on Second Geekhood

This is one I made after a friend made a joke about Patrick Stewart & Alex Kingston working as a team on a possible project. I thought Picard & River would have a lot in common.

And no matter what you do, don’t tell the Doctor.

What would Classic Sci-fi look like if… part 2

In this one, I wondered what Star Trek would be like if it were made in the UK. I though it would be comical to make Rowan Atkinson “aka” Mr. Bean as Captain Kirk with first officer Teddy.

For the Love of Spock documentary

Posted on June 9, 2015 by CaptZenos Posted in Geekworld Leave a comment

 

Leonard & Adam Nimoy   Back around Thanksgiving of last year, Leonard Nimoy & his son, Adam, started talking about how the 50th anniversary of Star Trek: The Original Series would soon be here. They also talked about how there had never been a documentary of Star trek based around the character of Mr. Spock…so they did something about it. Father and son conceived the idea for the film, and Zachary Quinto agreed to narrate it.  

  As talks and negotiations progressed, and as all Trek fans sadly know, on February 27th, 2015 Leonard Nimoy passed away due to end stage COPD. With the show of fan support for Leonard & his family after his passing, Adam has  made the documentary not just about Spock,  but also about his father.

  Adam has continued to work on the project since his fathers passing and is now to the point where he requires funding to do the bulk of the work on the film. Adam is asking for help from us all to complete his father idea of the documentary. So, to that end, he has start a Kickstarter campaign to fund the project. You will have until Wed, Jul 1 2015 7:00 PM EST  to pledge, and support this great tribute the late Leonard Nimoy.
