    I'm sick for the first time in three years, have been living on my couch watching movies, playoffs, whatever almost 24/7, could have started watching so many current shows but I confess that I have instead been watching my new favourite series: Star Trek The Next Generation, hehehe ... The first season was rather stinky, and the entire show is pretty damn formulaic, but I like it a lot. (whatever, I love it)
    The question now is do I geek out and go for Deep Space 9 next? (the thought of the show being stationary instead of flying through space exploring really doesn't seem all that appealing) ... Do I need to watch some of the movies before Deep Space 9?.. Will I end up going to conventions in spandex outfits?..

     

    Yes to DS9... I almost like it better then TNG...

     

    And yes to spandex.... never say no to spandex

    Rate The Last Movie You Saw - 2

    Since this has turned into the "Rate the last movie/TV show"...

     

    The Last Ship: 6.5-8.5/10

     

    aka - BSG meets zombie apocalypse

     

    couple episodes in, and I really can't make up my mind - on the one hand the science and specs are so horrible, it has to take place in another dimension with different laws of physics... on the other hand, once you accept a suspended disbelief, it's a really incredibly post-apocalyptic drama that has a lot of potential.

     

    The casting/acting is terrific, the plot line is pretty cool and I can't wait to see what happens next... despite the annoying 'goofs' that seem to pop up 4 or 5 times an episode, I'm still watching more... plus, it has Jayne from Firefly (Adam Baldwin).

     

     

    This show (so far) does a great job of making me think "What would I do in that situation"...

    What are you listening to?

    idk i thought davids take here gave the original justice. its a lot more haunting with the way his vocals build up towards the end, but then again i like disturbed. my favourite tune from them is stupify

    yeah that's what I meant... it was more then just giving justice... it was one of those "covers made it better" scenarios...

     

    almost wanted to start a WN cover thread from this

    What are you listening to?

    ^ can't say I really like much of Disturbed, they a bit too metal for me... some of their covers and singles are pretty sweet for sure, but this one.... man... hits pretty good....

     

    darkness comes to talk with me again, my old friend.... yeah... not sleeping any more

     

     

    And seriously, who knew Howie Mandel was the lead singer... awesome right?

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    GODS! I need to VK someone right now :P

    THE DONALD’S FIRST DAY IN OFFICE
     
    1. President Donald Trump and Vice President Marco  Rubio are sworn into office.
     
    2. In a rare event on inauguration day, Congress 

     

    convenes for an emergency meeting to repeal the
    illegal and unconstitutional Socialist healthcare
    farce known as Obamacare. The new Director of
    Health and Social Services Dr. Ben Carson announces
    that an independent group of healthcare management
    professionals is hired to handle healthcare services
    for poor and low income people. They are also
    assigned the duty of eliminating Medicare and
    Medicaid fraud. Government’s costs for public
    healthcare are reduced by 90%. Healthcare
    insurance premiums for working Americans are
    reduced by 50%. The move saves billions of
    taxpayer paid dollars. Healthcare service in
    the U.S improves 100%.

    3. Newly appointed Department of Homeland
    Security Chief Ted Cruz announces the immediate
    deployment of troops to the U.S. Mexico border
    to control illegal immigration and the immediate
    deportation of illegals with criminal records or
    links to terrorist groups. New bio-encrypted Social
    Security IDs are required by every American citizen.
    Birthright is abolished. All immigration from countries
    that represent a threat to the safety of American
    citizens is terminated indefinitely. The move saves
    American taxpayers billions of dollars. Several
    prisons are closed.
     
    4. Newly appointed Secretary of Business and
    Economic Development Carly Fiorina eliminates
    more than half of the Government agencies
    operating under the Obama administration
    saving taxpayers billions of dollars. Stocks rise 100%.
     
    5. Newly appointed Director of Government
    Finance Rand Paul announces the abolition of
    the IRS and displays a copy of the new Federal
    Tax Return form. It consists of one page. The
    instructions consist of two pages. The Federal
    Reserve is audited. The move saves American
    Taxpayers billions of dollars and increases tax revenue.
     
    6. Hillary Clinton is in prison, where she belongs.
    Her cell is directly across from Jesse Jackson and
    Al Sharpton who are serving time for "Hate
    Crimes". She bitches at them constantly from
    behind the bars of her cell in what some call cruel
    and unusual punishment.
     
    7. Bernie Sanders is in the nuthouse, where he
    belongs. His room is directly across from Nancy
    Pelosi, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Chris Matthews
    and Al Franken. They meet for tea every day at
    10 AM and discuss the success and benefits
    of Communism and Socialism throughout the world.
    They also wonder when the "Mothership" is going
    to pick them up and return them to their home planets.
     
    8. Windows 12 is released. It is designed for humans,
    doesn’t try to satisfy the needs of every person on
    the planet, doesn’t require a degree in Nuclear
    Physics to operate and looks just like Windows 7
    except it is easier to use.
     
    9. Barack Obama flees the United States under
    cover of darkness and returns to his homeland
    of Kenya before his trial for treason begins. He
    deplanes on a remote jungle airstrip. It was reported
    that he was last seen wandering through the jungle
    singing “Hakuna Matata” with a chimp named Commie.
     
    10. Oscar Meyer announces the introduction of a
    new cholesterol and fat free pepperoni that tastes
    just like regular pepperoni.
     
    11. Not to be outdone, Kraft Foods announces the
    introduction of several varieties of cholesterol and
    fat free cheeses that taste just like regular cheese.
     
    12. A committee is not established to determine
    what is causing global cooling. Billions of taxpayer
    dollars are saved.
     
    13. Dead people are no longer allowed to vote in
    Chicago, a huge blow for the Democrat Party in the
    State of Illinois.
     
    And this my friends constitutes THE PERFECT DAY!

     

     

     

    And this is just the FIRST DAY!!

     

     

    So was this posted somewhere by someone who believed all this or something?

    I don't think he will want to be a healthy scratch for 4 years in a row.

    Hes got about 3 years left in his career tops, probably only one more with Vancouver.

    If he has 3 more years left why would he be a healthy scratch for 4? I think my prediction is much more realistic then yours
