This dinosaur was the first dork of the Jurassic period

It’s simple and it’s brilliant. Tip o’ the hat to the creator, I’m getting one.

You can watch the series at their Youtube portal, or as usual at their home http://www.captainblasto.com.

Captain Blasto, a video web series, follows Colin Carter as he recruits a middle-aged crew of comic crooks, including his high school janitor, to stage fake robberies in their small town which he can foil as his childhood comic book super hero. New episodes every other week.

I’m on way down to the convention for Day 3 so this will be short and sweet. Day 2 of the Star Trek convention gave us such goodies as a deep dive into the Phoenix Mars Lander by a pair of folks from University of Arizona that manage the Phoenix surface ops.

The rest of the day was celebrities on stage followed by a photo op with Marina Sirtis (”Counselor Troi” from ST:TNG). Celebrities included Grace Lee Whitney (”Yoeman Janice Rand”), Max Grodenchik (”Rom” from DS9), Michelle Forbes (”Ensign Ro Laren” from ST:TNG), Brent Spiner (”Data”), Marina Sirtis (”Counselor Troi”), Majel Roddenberry (”Nurse Chapel” and wife to Gene Roddenberry), Garret Wang (”Ensign Harry Kim” Voyager).

Oh, and of course, throughout the day there was lots of interaction with like minded geeks, quite a few in costume, we’ll get these pics posted asap when we can catch out breath, unfortunately the hotel’s wifi doesn’t extend to their convention center. Among my favorites is Molly in her retro mini skirt from The Original Series and my personal winner for Best Original Concept would be Michelle and Francine Crockett for their Starfleet Cheerleaders outfits! Oh Yes!

Below is a pic of Ken and his Starfleet Poodles (Tasha Yar and Data and one other who I can’t recall).

That’s right folks - Andy and I have hit town on both feet, and we’re pummeling out some awesome exclusive Star Trek shows that have kept us in our seats during the first day of "Star Trek Las Vegas 2008".  We saw a smattering of great trek stars in the main pavilion, including:

Susan Gibney - "Dr. Leah Brahms"

Barbara March - "Lursa"

Robin Curtis - "Lt. Saavik"

John Fleck - "Silik"

Denise Crosby - "Lt. Tasha Yar"

Carel Struycken - "Mr. Homn"

John de Lancie - "Q"

Each guest was fantastic, though they had their own styles of pandering to the crowd.  Although I enjoyed all the guests, the best by far was Denise, who had a clearly enjoyable time speaking to the crowd about her roles, and giving colorful and entertaining stories about her personal life and present work.  John de Lancie was a real character in life, just as he is on film as well!

That’s it for day one!  I’ll put up some pictures tomorrow of the fascinating people we’ve met so far…  QaHpla‘ !!

Here’s a snapshot from a Hulu episode of “Star Trek - Spectre of the Gun” converted to a motivational, though I’m not quite sure how motivating this turned out.
