Look who made it onto CNN…

A boy and his C64

Nope, not me, silly. I had a Franklin ACE 1000. Rather, this is a fellow friend of fiddygibbers everywhere. 😀

I also know one of the people in the little photo feature about people who are still using Commodore 64s. Small world, eh?… Read more

Just a quick Logbook administrivia note: I’m actively seeking a volunteer to take over the Stargate Atlantis episode guide starting with the second half of season four (beginning January 4th). A combination of factors – including lack of time and an increasing lack of interest in the show – is taking its toll, and I’ve watched this season so far more out of a sense of obligation to keep the guide current than out of being a fan of the show. Anyone who would like to keep tabs on Stargate Atlantis, and can turn around episode summaries similar to what has bene done so far the weekend after each new episode airs, should feel free to get in touch with me via e-mail; please use “Stargate Atlantis Logbook” (or something similar) as the subject line.… Read more

I'm just your typical compulsively-writing, sci-fi-and-science-obsessed, classic-video-game-playing, action-figure-collecting dad.

That's me in red with the smooth round head.

I edit Mission Log: A Roddenberry Star Trek Podcast and its sister shows Mission Log: Prodigy and Mission Log: The Orville for Roddenberry Podcasts. I was a frequent writer, editor, and voice on the daily Sci-Fi 5 podcast for Roddenberry, and I created and currently co-host Mission Log: Gene-ology. I handle video production on Mission Log Live, Mission Log: Prodigy and Mission Log: The Orville. I'm the technical director for the TrekTalks online telethon event benefiting Hollywood Food Coalition.

I also run theLogBook.com/theLogBook.media and host podcasts here, including Retrogram, Select Game and Don't Give This Tape To Earl. I've written several books (WARP!1, VWORP!1, VWORP!2, and "Fatherhood, Fandom And Fading Out), and produced the Phosphor Dot Fossils video game documentaries. On YouTube, I still occasionally produce and host the ongoing Phosphor Dot Fossils and Voyages Of Shelf Discovery series. Follow me on Twitter @LogBookGuy, like theLogBook.com on Facebook, or contact me here.

Have Hot Takes, Will Travel

Does Gene's Paladin line up with Paladin in the rest of Have Gun -- Will Travel? Was Gene writing Paladin as Sam Houston? All three of Gene-ology's hosts - Ashley, Earl, and Norman C. Lao - gather to consider the story so far across Gene Roddenberry's scripts for Have Gun -- Will Travel.
Gene-ology 53 - Beyond Atlas

Welcome to Gene-ology, where we explore the earliest TV writing works of Gene Roddenberry, the creator of Star Trek! Gene-ology examines "Beyond Atlas", a one-off script for an unmade series might have been "West Point, but for the Air Force Academy" - except that, as written by Gene Roddenberry, it reads like a pitch for…
