NCC-1701

Sunrise

We met the three coyotes on the levee again this morning.

    • Thanks, Lavinia. Did I ever tell you I went to hear Roddenberry talk in 1978? I was expecting a real visionary. He was a total tool of Hollywood. So disappointing.

      • I’ve only ever seen James Doohan and Michael Dorn in person and was not disappointed.

        Hollywood has had, and still does have, its unique problems, and to some extent people are all tools of whomever or whatever organization pays their bills. I never met Roddenberry, but do consider him a visionary who left the world with an incredible legacy, and spawned a lot of imagination and creativity in the generations to follow.

        • Listening to him talk, you might not think of him as much of a visionary. I believe he might have gotten a lot of credit for other people’s visions of the future. I may be too hard on him, but he left me cold.

    • The only reason I know it is because I know a woman who painted her minivan the colors of the USS Enterprise and had NCC-1701 on each side and the back of the car. Thanks, Teagan.

  1. Hmm, looks like those Coyotes are “packing” up, food must be getting sparser or hard to capture for the lones one. The war parties have been out around us, you can hear them yipping and howling between each other while hunting our woods and the nearby fields.
