Star Trek: Excalibur

Did I get your attention? Good.

This is information on the purposed web project that my ship's XO - Scott Nakada - is currently involved in [he's the prop master]. They are hoping to get funding from the Pepsi "Good Idea" project. Here's what he writes about it.

------------------------------------------

The top 100 voted submissions get posted to the next month, the top 2 places get funding for their project.

They do have a facebook page and have the support of William Shatner, Walter Koenig, Mike Okuda, and many, many more stars, and celebrities. They want to do a series of 22-24 webisodes (full hour long) a year. It’s a film school set up that currently is planned to not cost the students a dime, the professionals will be passing along what they know, to the students, and the students will be learning valuable skills and getting real world experience. But for this to happen like us with our film project (they also have volunteered to help us if we ever get rolling) they need funding.

So, if you'd like to see more Trek, drop by, register [it's free] and give them a vote.


Note: Scott was involved in "Star Trek: Of Gods and Men" [props master, art dept, extra, etc] and makes props for Roddenberry.com, among others. Another ship member, Peter Christian, was also involved in the project [producer, art director, extra, etc]. I love my ship. We are so multi-faceted and geeky.

Oh holy Crud!

I just applied for the position of DCOFORCECOM [Deputy Commanding Officer Force Command] for the Starfleet Marine Corp. Okay, it's basically a data gathering and data entry thing. Right now it's just to fill in until the end of this term.

SFI is in the process of getting ready to elect it's new CO. Then the new Commander installs his staff, the new Vice Commander selects a new CO for the Marines and said new Marine CO decides on their staff.

But crap! It's a Corps level position [International] and I had kittens all over the place when I was asked to be the DOIC [Deputy Officer in Charge] of 4BN 5 BDE [the WA state area of WA, OR, ID and MT].

I must have taken a serious knock to the head from somewhere.

I may, or may not, post some more personal SFI stuff in the next day or so, but I'm still not sure. I don't blow my own horn all that well.

A kazoo... maybe. But horn? Not so much.

Even in today's job hungry market, you might want to rethink this...
