Hello World!

Weird moment of the day: My 10 year old brother came home from school and told me he had been taught a song about God to the 'Flinstones' theme. Top marks for creativity;)

Trek Two Years Ago

These were some of the major news items on February 26, 1999:

  • 'Good Shepherd' Spoilers
    The first information on Voyager's 'Good Shepherd' emerged online:

    Janeway discovers that there are three 'outcasts' on her ship that have never been on an away mission, and who have fallen through the cracks as far as receiving her 'personal attention.

    The episode was originally reported to feature the return of Kes, but that turned out to be 'Fury.'

  • Wolfe Talks 'Andromeda'
    Former DS9 writer-producer Robert Hewitt Wolfe talked about his new series - Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda, mentioning his plans for a story arc. "As for the "arc," personally I have no idea how this show is going to end. I don't even want to know at this stage. I want to see how it evolves. Follow the characters and the premise and see where it takes us. All I can promise is that we'll do everything we can to make it a great ride." Further information on the series can be found in our sister site SlipstreamWeb.
