Stargate as we know it is gone, but it’s okay. See over the past eleven years I have felt as if I was witnessing the next level of what sci-fi could be. Stargate has become more than just a show for me. Some people feel this way about Star Trek or Star Wars, for me it’s all about the gate. I know for the rest of my life I will always have fond memories of the times I have had watching with friends, geeking out over SG trivia or just the fact that the computer I am typing this on is named “Odyssey” and my laptop is “Puddle Jumper One”. In the ups and downs that have been my existence Stargate was always there to entertain and inspire me. I identified with the characters in ways I cannot begin to describe and have been likened to both Daniel Jackson and Rodney McKay by several people. The thought of a universe where our differences seem to fade away, one where we are united by science and exploration, that is my ideal world.  Since season two I knew that when SG-1 ended, I would feel ripped off if I did not hear one line from Thor, and it HAD to be Thor. When he said “You are the fifth race.” during “Unending” I teared up, that was the line I had been waiting so long to hear. It was as if we had been on this decade long journey from who we were to who we are. A perfect circle. Atlantis to me always felt like the next step in our evolution, until we became the new Ancients. Stargate my be gone for now, but my heart will always be in Atlantis, and my spirit with SG-1. 

Thank you for the Journeys, Exploration and the Stories.

It’s long overdue but I am now running Leopard.

Funny photo of amazon’s recommendation system suggesting “I Am Legend” to people buying Magnum size condoms. I guess if you need Magnum’s you are a legend.

A Houston computer geek explains how he had to convince AT&T to put him in their UVERSE coverage area, even though he was already well inside. It clearly shows the stupidity of AT&T technicians as well as Houstonians.

Yes, there will be a new X-Files movie in June. Oh, and you can bet your ass I will be there. What’s that you say, you want proof that this is not just another rumor? Okay.

You can also check it out on Wikipedia.

Now I can feel some of you asking how I can say I will be going to see the movie when I have been very public in my distaste for what Chris Carter did to the story. This is because this move rejects the “mythology” of the series and is more on par with the many single episode “monster of the week” story lines we loved from the series. It’s been in development hell for six years and I can’t wait to see it again.

Well today marks the launch date of my latest project, one which people who know me will tell you was inevitable. I give you a project I seriously doubt I will ever run out of content for, one near and dear to me. I give you loathinghouston.com. Now I know what you are saying, people will hate you for saying these things and it is a terrible thing to hate your home town. First of all, everyone hates everyone else here, it’s the Houston way! (Seriously, Check it out!) Second, I don’t care if it’s bad to hate this place, so many I know do and the list grows day by day. For more info you can read my entries every week over at loathinghouston.com

Below is a hint of what my next web project will be about, people who know me close know there is only one thing I truly loathe and the world will soon be hearing about it. I’ll give you another hint, I hate it more than Microsoft.
