K-9 and friends find themselves in possession of an overdue library book from another world – and one of them is about to wind up paying the fine to the Lost Library of Ukko!
Here’s the latest background chatter from theLogBook.com Forums…
Drop by, chime in, share and enjoy!
K-9 zips back in time to the 1960s, but there’s more suspicion and grooviness going on – he’s arrived in time for the cold war, and has to help a friend escape accusations of being The Cambridge Spy.
Time traveling companion wanted, competitive pay. Paul McGann returns as the eighth Doctor in Situation Vacant, but who will be his new sidekick?
On this date in 1977, mere months after the public’s imagination soared into space with the first Star Wars movie, Voyagers 1 & 2 lifted off on their mission to survey the solar system, visiting planets that had never been seen up close and giving us new looks at planets we only thought we’d seen; on this very same date in 1989, Voyager 2 made its final “stop” at distant Neptune. Revisit Voyager in plastic form (and check out our cool bite-sized animated versions of their missions) in ToyBox.

…Star Trek movie producer Harve Bennett, generally regarded as one of the chief architects of the big screen rebirth of the Star Trek franchise, without which we arguably wouldn’t have gotten the various spinoff series of the three decades that followed. Bennett produced Star Treks II, III, IV and V, but ironically Paramount rejected his idea of casting younger actors as Kirk and Spock in their Starfleet Academy days for the next movie.

Just a quick note to let everyone know that the site’s on “pause” until August 28th. A serious lack of time, combined with a serious bout of writers’ block, has struck, and a little downtime is called for. And a lot of swimming time. And a good massage. But you don’t want to hear about that here. Well, not unless the massage results in a really good sordid story, in which case I’ll be opening a whole other site and charging admission for it (just kidding). There’ll be a couple of things popping up during this pause that were already written, and who knows, maybe I’ll still be posting stuff in the forums that happens to catch my fancy, but for right now, it’s time to go on autopilot. Go ahead, explore what’s already there – not like there isn’t 20 years worth of cool to dig through. – EG
