Update O' Rama!

It's been a while since i posted here. Been pretty busy and it's not let up at all.
10 New things in my life include.

1:Going back to school. Almost finished with that. One more year to go!
2:Remodeling the house a bit. Mostly to apease the wife. Although the
lair did get a fair bit of stuff done to it. Alex would be proud.
3:I started up a scholarship at the local high school in Alex's name.
4:I rebuilt the 460 in my old truck. Runs like a champ now!
5:I started a Venture Star sim in BF. It's weird playing straight trek after
all this time spent in the affiliates.
6:I'm most likely going to add original flavor TOS to Expedition Fleet. It's the
number one request I've gotten since i started EF. If it happens i'm going to call
it STAR TREK:The Golden Age
7:I'm reformulating plans for Futility's End once again now that i'm back in charge there again. I'm possibly considering folding FE EF and STGA into one new sim group.Just to make it easier to administer. Names and stuff have always been hard for me to choose. Took me forever to decide on actually calling EF Expedition Fleet.
8:I think i have some sort of record for watching the new star trek movie. I'm up to almost 500 viewings now.
9:I've been taking web dev classes at school. I'm now Dan Taylor yet but i have learned an awful lot! I can't wait to really get into the meat of the stuff this coming year.
10:I finally dropped some of the extra weight i've carried. Over 30 pounds as of today! Alex was always the better looking twin with all his muscles but now i've finally gotten down to a decent weight!

There is a lot more i could go on about but i think i'll stop here for my first new post in forever. Promise to keep this up better then i have. I know it helps to get things out in the open sometimes.

Keep on Trekkin

Coming back bit by bit.

Taking a step back seems to be working for me.

I can see the light at the end of the tunnel

Stuck day 9 .....

Still caught in that place we all hate when we write.

I just can't get my mind to free up enough to work.

sigh.....

Stuck

I'm pretty stuck creatively right now. I sit in front of the computer and try to write and pretty much nothing comes out right now.

I figure it's stress related and all that. I have a lot going on in my life right now that is tearing me up pretty good.



sigh.....

An early premier.

I figure those who actually take the time to read the tripe i post deserve an advanced peek at this stuff. So without further delay i present an amazing project created for me by a wonderful new friend. I brought him some pretty crude line drawings and a few ideas and he delivered all of this wonderful stuff to me. Ricky MadMan Wallace created the mesh and brought the Nu trek design to life you can find more of his wonderful stuff at http://www.madshipyard.com/.

She's a ship with a history that goes back to before Bravo Fleet before Futility's End. Before star trek the next generation and online role playing really. She traveled the galaxy at warp factor awesome for over ten years boldly going in a play by email internet role play and before that in live table top game created by alex.

I present to you Expedition Fleet's "Great Experiment" The most advanced ship in starfleet. She's a new ship that follows in the best design traditions of this newly expanding Nu-Trek universe. Cick on the image below to see the whole big big show!

USS Venture Star!



Short explanation ...Her design borrows a bunch from that other "Great Experiment" Excelsior and our reasoning is that during a known crisis Starfleet advanced the design past theoretical along with the Enterprise and into production utilizing some new technology. Below is the opening for my new Favorite TV show in the universe i inhabit. ;)



Remember this April and then May,9th forget everything you think you know....

March 31st premier

Be here on the 31st for the premier of Star Trek Venture Star! A Nu ship for a Nu golden age!

Been quiet

I've been quiet here for sometime. I just didn't feel the need or want to share anything. That's changed in the last few days. With developments on the Expedition fleet front i figure I'll premier a few things here first before i release them to the world. First is the new design for USS Venture Star along with a video for her and an announcement for Expedition Fleet as a whole. Stayed tuned because i think your all going to be pretty impressed.


I've been disappointed in the last few days about a few things. Decisions at ACEirc have caused me to leave there. I'm not happy about it but i cannot be somewhere or endorse a place that would believe a lunatic over me. It's a long story but suffice to say it deals with being accused of actually being alex again. Doing something about the harassment then having the decision overturned by someone who i thought had my back.

Thanks to Dan for trying and having my back when others pretty much left me hanging. I've been told i should offer up proof of who i am and what happened to my brother. I'm not going to and i'll tell you why. I've been honest since i showed up online in the simming world. Since day one. If you believe me great i thank you for your support. If you don't believe me well...pardon my french but FUCK YOU!

I've done nothing to deserve such treatment and thoughts nor did my brother. Who yes did indeed die in January of 07. The idea that i "popped" up to soon after he passed is insane. I've known about and been involved in alex's online life well before january of 07. Hell i filled in for him the summer before when he got into that accident and couldn't even speak for months let alone move. Alex was always sending us in the family links to things he did online so we could read the adventures he wrote.

I'm familiar with everything because i was a silent observer for so long. After he passed i did loads of research in the materials he kept and printed before i even though of joining this unique collaborative writing you all do.

But i rant.....mostly the people accusing these things are at the worst mentally troubled and at the least jealous of what alex did had and accomplished. Some of them even seem to hold weird grudges of twisted things that seemed only to happened in there minds. I wish them well and only hope they can move on.

To end with a quote or two from alex.

"keep on keepin on."
