Sarah Palin was signing copies of her book Going Rogue at a Borders in Noblesville, Indiana when she met a woman that looks just like her. I haven’t seen something this amazing since that episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation where a transporter malfunction created a second Riker, Lieutenant Thomas Riker. It’s one of the reasons to this day I refuse to use a transporter, and instead use shuttles.
The photo appears on Sarah Palin’s Facebook page. It doesn’t identify who this woman is, but it states that the photograph is the property of SarahPAC, Sarah Palin’s official political action committee.
Is this a book tour or is it a touring political rally?
I thought it was a book tour. She’s been appearing at military bases, something she would not be able to do if she was campaigning.
Trekkies Bash New Star Trek Film As ‘Fun, Watchable’
We will be heading off to the movie theater a little latter to watch J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek. I’m pretty excited about it. I used to be an über Star Trek nerd. I’ve been to at least five different Star Trek conventions. I used to read Star Trek novels. I not only watched all of the various Star Trek shows on TV, I owned a large collection of Star Trek episodes on video tape. I even used to collect various Star Trek collector items.
Now I’m not a Star Trek nerd. Now I’m just a nerd.
Something happened over time that made me reconsider that thing I loved so very much. I used to think my interest in the franchise waned because of the last two Star Trek TV shows, Star Trek: Voyager and then Enterprise. To say those two shows left a lot to be desired it an understatement. I don’t think it’s that. Even now when I attempt to watch Star Trek: The Next Generation, a show I truly loved, I cannot stand watching more than 10 minutes of it. The plots seem heavy-handed and down right silly. Most of the acting is wretchedly bad. Actors playing aliens almost always speak with a theatrical, over-pronouncing-every-single-word way of speaking. It might sound OK when they are doing Shakespeare in the park, but it sounds silly when they have 6-pounds of latex glued to their face. I don’t like how even though there are over 1,000 people aboard the U.S.S. Enterprise, almost everything is done by the same six people.
I guess I’ve just outgrown Star Trek. Why than am I looking forward to this movie? Maybe because it looks to be a lot different than what I’m used to. All I know is that I’m looking forward to seeing it.
Cayusa:
A shame that it happened, but I kind of wish it was the other way around. I've had my own run-ins with people who feel the need to chat on a cell phone ...
Rick:
No, I wasn't going to, but they sent me an email informing me they credited my account $25....
Ryan:
Atleast now they don't have to hustle across the border, they can just jump in her tour bus that has her face plastered on the side and cruise across in ...
Rick:
Yes, it's already my favorite movie of all time....
