Watching the Eagles game today #FlyEaglesFly, and Fox played this song going to commercial. Damn ear worm. I remember this back in the 70's on the radio all the time. Only way to get it out of my head is to hit it straight on - had to play the full song a couple of times.

#StarTrekMarathon Deep Space Nine Ep 133 - Statistical Probabilities - 24 Nov 1997 1/2 A hard ep for me. Most of it is based around a group of individuals who have genetic enhancements similar to Bashir, but aren't functioning on the same level. I have a MUCH different take on this one, because a

39 yrs ago we lost Cliff Burton (27 Sep 1986). What a f'in shame. While I had no problem with Newsted or Trujillo, I always wondered what they would have done had Burton lived. Massive talent. Fortunately got to see Metallica with Cliff once - 20 Apr 1986 opening for Ozzy in Philly. #RIPCliff

So I'm playing another of my Rise of the Triad levels - "Lights Out". I did this cuz I thought it would be cool to have a level with near zero lighting. Even though I KNEW what I had to do, I was like "This is is some bastard level design", but I still like the way it looks. :) @apogeeent.com

#StarTrekMarathon Deep Space Nine Ep 132 - Resurrection - 17 Nov 1997 1/2 The penultimate DS9 Mirror Universe story. TBH, this one and the final one feel like "too far". I thought the first few were cool, but by this point they feel like an obligation. The twist this time is that "they come here",

Got some "new" vinyl yesterday. The 18th Deep Purple album "Rapture of the Deep" got a new remix for the 20th anniv. The OG came out in Oct 2005. I still have that. The new remix will be first up on the turntable today. @deeppurplepod.bsky.social #vinyl #nowplaying #vinylcommunity

#StarTrekMarathon Deep Space Nine Ep 131 - You Are Cordially Invited - 10 Nov 1997 1/2 Basically Worf & Dax get married. There's some drama in the ep about it maybe not happening (surrounding Martok's wife), but in the end you knew it was happening. I was glad they did this, but wished we had more

#StarTrekMarathon Deep Space Nine Ep 130 - Sacrifice of Angels - 3 Nov 1997 1/2 The war arc closes with this action packed ep where we retake DS9 and force the Cardassians / Dominion out. While that part is fun, I also really like how Damar killing Dukat's daughter pushes him over the edge to being

@seanferrick.bsky.social @trekculture.bsky.social is this real?

#StarTrekMarathon Deep Space Nine Ep 129 - Favor the Bold - 27 Oct 1997 1/2 1st of 2 parter to close out the arc. Sisko decides it's time to launch an offensive to retake DS9. The bulk of this ep is mostly however dealing with station stuff (Dukat/Ziyal, Rom in prison, Kira's rebellion, etc). There

The first vinyl to hit the turntable today is the 7th studio album by Dio - 1996's "Angry Machines". Turns 29 today (23 Sep 1996, Eur - 15 Oct US) While Tracy G wasn't my fav Dio guitarist, it's hard to deny Dio himself, and there are some great tracks here still. #vinyl #nowplaying #vinylcommunity

#StarTrekMarathon Deep Space Nine Ep 128 - Behind the Lines - 20 Oct 1997 1/2 Good war stuff here. Kira & Rom (with Odo) have been trying sabotage the relationship between the Cardassians and the Jem'Hadar. The plans are going great until the female shapeshifter shows up, merges with Odo, and at a

Can confirm this works.

@benfineman.bsky.social Love the Cyberman head in your post there. :) I go way back with Who (to 83). Here's two links that show my obsession (and a shot of me with sixey back in the day). How I started: joesiegler.blog/2012/08/new-... My Marathon (every episode): joesiegler.blog/doctor-who-m...

#StarTrekMarathon Deep Space Nine Ep 127 - Sons & Daughters - 13 Oct 1997 1/3 Multiple stories here. Worf's son Alexander gets assigned to Martok's ship, and we have to deal with "Worf as a Dad" stuff - for the last time actually. We have to deal with Dukat's daughter Ziyal and her friendship with

#StarTrekMarathon Deep Space Nine Ep 126 - Rocks and Shoals - 6 Oct 1997 1/2 Sisko & crew have to survive the crash of their ship from the last ep, while simultaneously dealing with a crew of Jem'Hadar who have also crashed there. As Worf would have said "You were outnumbered - it must have been

#DoctorWhoMarathon Ep 898 - Reality War (Story 319b) - 31 May 2025 1/3 Gatwa's last story - the regen was kept a secret (a shock). When I watched this the first time I came out of it saying this - "I REALLY enjoyed this except for the last 20 seconds". I didn't want him to go, but I REALLY didn't

#DoctorWhoMarathon Ep 897 - Wish World (Story 319) - 24 May 2025 1/2 The Doctor & all his friends find themselves in a false 1950's themed reality. This is pushed by Conrad Clark (from Lucky Day) under control of The Rani who has gained the ability to "wish" things into existence. It also teases

#StarTrekMarathon Deep Space Nine Ep 125 - A Time to Stand - 29 Sep 1997 1/2 S6 starts with a 6 part story arc. I love the different vibe here. Even giving Dukat having a station log, the kind of thing Sisko did. Three months have passed since S5 finale. This is where you see the strength of the

#DoctorWhoMarathon Ep 896 - The Interstellar Song Contest (Story 318) - 17 May 2025 1/3 Basically, Die Hard meets The Eurovision Song Contest. When I found out this was gonna be about the song contest, I figure I'd hate it, but I ended up loving it. There's a lot of good surrounding characters that

#StarTrekMarathon Deep Space Nine Ep 124 - Call to Arms - 16 Jun 1997 1/2 S5 finale is the formal start of the Dominion War. With very few exceptions, the show is easily the darkest #StarTrek incarnation there is through the finale. Basically DS9 is attacked, Sisko mines the the wormhole entrance,

#StarTrekMarathon #StarTrek Deep Space Nine Ep 123 - In The Cards - 9 Jun 1997 1/2 A mostly light ep, the last one for quite awhile. Nog & Jake try to secure a baseball card that Sisko wants - to lift his mood. The path leads them through a whole mess of scenarios, most of which drive the comedy of

#AllMyVinyl #152 - "Iron Maiden" by Iron Maiden. #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl #UpTheIrons Back to vinyl with the first Maiden album, now 45yrs old. It has an earlier sound than what they became known for, but still unmistakably Maiden. Title track MAY have been replayed 5x. My thoughts here.

#StarTrekMarathon #StarTrek Deep Space Nine Ep 122 - Empok Nor - 19 May 1997 1/2 A handful of characters (& some DS9 "Lower Deckers") visit the abandoned sister station of DS9 - "Empok Nor". It's a bottle ep for sure, saving $ for finale. They need a part to repair something on DS9 that they can

Breaking news: Robert Redford, an actor whose looks and subtle magnetism in films made him one of the biggest movie stars of all time, but who also forged a legacy in cinema as a patron saint of American independent film, died Sept. 16. He was 89.

#StarTrekMarathon #StarTrek Deep Space Nine Ep 121 - Blaze of Glory - 12 May 1997 1/2 Two plots here. The primary one is the finale of the Eddington story. The title suggests where this goes, but not in an obvious way. I do like the plot here as it ties several events together. It's also the end of

Fun TV show crossover. The actor who plays the father (Jim) on "Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage" on CBS is Will Sasso. He was in one of my favorite franchises - #DoctorWho. He was in the 1996 McGann TV movie as "Pete" the morgue attendant who first sees the 8th Doctor. @willsasso.bsky.social

Love me some Funko pops. I also think this is one of the better looking ones, and I adore it comes with the coffee mug too. #StephenStephenStephen @colbertlateshow.bsky.social @stephenathomes.bsky.social

#StarTrekMarathon #StarTrek Deep Space Nine Ep 120 - Children of Time - 5 May 1997 1/2 A story done by several Trek incarnations. Our crew crash the Defiant & meet their own descendants. They face an ethical dilemma in escaping. In the end you know our crew carry on, so there's no TRUE problem in

I love that @gameinformer.com is back with their print magazine. I always loved reading that in the old days with breakfast. The tradition continues.

#StarTrekMarathon #StarTrek Deep Space Nine Ep 119 - Soldiers of the Empire - 28 Apr 1997 1/2 An EXCELLENT Klingon ep. It's most about Martok and his recovering from being a prisoner for years. The path to that involves Martok in command of a Klingon ship with Worf as his second in command, & Dax

Noticed this in the titles for S3 of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. This shot of the Enterprise reminded me right away of this shot from the original 1972 Animated Series. Not a direct copy of course, but I saw a visual similarity. Intentional? #StarTrek #StrangeNewWorlds @seanferrick.bsky.social

After finishing Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, this picture pretty much sums up the season for me. I forget who did this at the moment - wasn't me. :) #StarTrek #StrangeNewWorlds cc: @seanferrick.bsky.social @trekculture.bsky.social

I love a good broken sign. #NotMyPicture

#StarTrekMarathon #StarTrek Deep Space Nine Ep 118 - Ferengi Love Songs - 21 Apr 1997 1/2 The title refers to two pairings. Rom & Leeta as well as Quark's mother & the Grand Nagus. This is a weird one, these Ferengi heavy eps are hit or miss, and I'm in the middle here . One one hand it does have

50 years ago Pink Floyd's 9th studio album - "Wish You Were Here" was released (12 Sep 1975). While not my favorite of their 70's albums, it does have a lot of good musical moments. Had to spin the vinyl this morning on the anniversary. #vinyl #vinylcommunity #nowspinning #PinkFloyd

My daughter and I at the end of the Nintendo Direct when there was no news on the two games we wanted to have SOMETHING said about. #NintendoDirect #AnimalCrossing #SplatoonRaiders

Pokémon Pokopia just feels like Animal Crossing, but with Pokemon characters. Would rather have a proper new Animal Crossing game - come on Nintendo - still time in this Nintendo Direct. #NintendoDirect

#DoctorWhoMarathon Ep 895 - The Story & The Engine (Story 317) - 10 May 2025 1/2 A HIGHLY enjoyable episode. The sci-fi parts are a bit hokey, but I ADORED the atmosphere. This story exists cuz Ncuti said he wanted a story set in Africa, so we got this in Lagos. While some of the cultural stuff was

#StarTrekMarathon #StarTrek Deep Space Nine Ep 117 - Ties of Blood & Water - 14 Apr 1997 1/2 A sequel to the "Second Skin" ep where Kira has to deal with feelings she had for the Cardassian man who thought she was his long lost daughter. Not as large a scope given the war we've just started, it's

#StarTrekMarathon #StarTrek Deep Space Nine Ep 116 - Business as Usual - 7 Apr 1997 1/2 A darned good Quark ep. His cousin Gaila finally shows up and talks him into being a weapons dealer to cover his debts (which he does). But then has major guilt over it - good internal struggle stuff by Armin.

"You wanted the best - you got the best!" A classic live album turns 50 today - the "Alive!" album by Kiss was released 10 Sep 1975. Got this vinyl myself in 2020 for the first time. So of course it's the first thing to hit the turntable today. #vinyl #vinylcommunity #nowplaying

Prey for the Xbox 360 is on sale right now at $3.99. Was a killer game I was lucky to have a part in creating (a very small part, but still). almost 20 years ago now. It's backwards compatible, so if you've never played it, man go get it! www.xbox.com/en-US/games/...

An odd use of vinyl. Would look funny on the turntable for sure. #vinyl #vinylcommunity #nowplaying arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025...

#StarTrekMarathon #StarTrek Deep Space Nine Ep 115 - A Simple Investigation - 31 Mar 1997 1/2 Basically, Odo gets laid. He falls for a woman who is under investigation. I really wish they had done this when Odo was a solid, as a changeling, it makes things feel different. It's also not Kira, which
