Space, the not totally unattainable frontier...
Friday, January 18, 2008

At some point in the near future, sometime after Superwife goes back to work and we have something resembling a disposable income, we are going to be finishing our basement. And one of the things I like to pretend I'll get my way about is that I will get to put in a proper home theater when the time comes.
So, while I'm pretending, I will imagine that my home theater could someday look like the above picture of an actual Star Trek themed theater that is currently taking up space at some rich bastard's place in Florida. I so want to have this. The shitty thing is that whatever I do to my home theater when we do finish the basement, it won't look enough like this one, so its going to be a disappointment right from the start.
The Batcave one found on the same site is cool too, but its not Star Trek, and Batman wouldn't be caught with his parents dead with such a small monitor.
On a somewhat related note, the new beard is growing in nicely, and a not-at-all-trek-fan-friend-of-mine today told me how much it made me look like William Riker. Right in the middle of the office, like something that had just come to him in a flash. 'Riker!!' He yelled across the room. I couldn't have been paid a better compliment. So now, the growing of the beard is going to be called The Riker Manoeuvre, which coincidentally enough I was already calling it. Just not previously in public.

If you were the size of Riker I could see the resemblance. Instead you look like you live in the bush ;)
I DO live in the bush!
And come on, you don't think I can pull off a pint sized version of everyone's favourite First Officer?
