Fleet Android
Got to see Star Trek into Darkness last night, and yes while what is below is more TNG than TOS or JJA, I still was thinking of it while watching the film. As for the film itself; the real reviewers already spoiled everything, it isn’t that bad of a film but really Star Trek isn’t […]

Rumors have floated around my daughter’s game since her first night at an in about the Bugul Noz. Every Fili has at least one song about a foolish noble who went in search of the Fae spirit.
