As promised, though it took long enough to finally happen, my replacement Sylvania tablet arrived last week. Though I gather the company has already discontinued the item (my guess: they wanted to cash in in time for Black Friday 2010, and then they beat a hasty retreat when stuff like the Motorola Xoom started peeking over the horizon), this is a slightly newer model, upgraded to Android 2.2. Ahead of the new machine’s arrival, I invested in a couple of modest extras for the anticipated replacement. … Read more

You may remember this photo from this post in 2007 – the “O” series:

Othello, Oberon, Olivia

From left to right, oldest to youngest: Othello, Oberon, Olivia.

The other day, I got this photo of the “P” series in the same window:

Portia, Puck

“O” cats = Othello and his trainees.
“P” cats = post-Othello: Puck and his trainee(s).

Portia recently had a surgical procedure to remove her kitten-making equipment. I back up my cats nightly, so I don’t need her making additional backups. She’s recovering nicely though. Here she is recuperating while Little E watches cartoons.

And here’s how she craftily avoids the cat equivalent of hospital food. … 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.

Gene-ology 81 - Bullet Wound

Welcome to Gene-ology, a podcast by Roddenberry Entertainment that dives deep into the early TV writing works of Gene Roddenberry. Gene-ology rewinds to a show from 1957, Gene's sole contribution to the medical drama (but apparently also crime drama) Dr. Christian. When felonious brothers kidnap the good doctor to perform a life-saving surgery, will he…
