Ain't No Thing - Week 12
This week's entry on KSTP-AM's "The Next Big Thing" was all about Star Trek. Only it's not going to be. Except when it is, but that's not now. Fascinating.
The "Star Ship Seeker" set sail with its Captain Ed Beal (or Thiel? Enunciate please!) and First Mate Jason. He came armed with a few Mr. Spock quotes that sounded like they were recorded from across the room, and full phasors of course.
He weaved in and around a number of topics. As he also found out, a little show prep can go a long way. He found it difficult to stay with any one topic.
So while it wasn't unpleasant, it really didn't score any good points either. So this week's grade is a C.
But as always, we appreciate the effort. Live long and prosper!

He still was good, but I just can't take the straight blah, blah, blah without a change of pace, something else entertaining to break the monotony of talk.
But, congrats are in order.
