Posted on February 9, 2015 | 3 comments

Hey All,

Here’s this week’s update for Celeste Yarnall’s cancer fund. At this writing, they have raised $13,664 toward the $50,000 goal.  It’s taking a bit of time, but it is an achievable goal! You can contribute here. Please consider Mr. Spock’s calculations in the below comic, and please share this on Facebook, Twitter, emails, everywhere you can! I know we can help Celeste battle and win against this hellish ailment. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could reach the goal in 12 days?  Thanks to you All! We love you Celeste! And Pass it on!

12 days

Celeste Update 2/2/15 – A Good Start!

Posted on February 2, 2015 | 4 comments

Hey Kids,

Here’s this week’s update for Celeste Yanall’s cancer fund.  As of this writing, the fund has received $9,701,  $6,000 of which achieved the  first goal of having enough money to bank some of her tumor for future therapy.   It’s a good start,  but alas, it is only about 1/20th of the full amount needed ($50,00).  Please consider donating any amount you can to help Celeste on this difficult journey– She is so thankful and appreciative of all of her fans who are helping, and for all your prayers and support!   We’re here for you Celeste!

You can read more about Celeste and donate here.

For Celeste

Hi Everybody!

Posted on November 28, 2014 | 5 comments

Hi All! Hope all my followers in the U.S. had a lovely Thanksgiving yesterday!  For all the rest of the world, I hope you take a little moment every day to count all our blessings. So many little things to be thankful for; love of family and friends, a hot meal, and just a few minutes to b-r-e-a-t-h-e.

And now that the Christmas Shopping has officially begun, just remember that the greatest gift you can give is your time and friendship.  The best things in life are truly free! ❤

Here, have some Turkey!

From NPR’s program ‘On the Media’, here’s a great new interview with George Takei. by Bob Garfield.   George covers everything from Trek, Howard Stern, Politics, his show Allegiance,  and most profoundly, his remembrances of life in the Japanese-American internment camps.  A great interview before a live audience, enjoy:

Hey Kids,

Work and home life have been very busy lately (as I suspect they will through Christmas)  I have several drafts on tap here but not much time to finish them!  I hope to have some fresh Trekkiness for you later this week, thanks for your patience! -Therese  🙂   Still hoping that the TOS gallery from TrekCore will come back online too so I can finish my posters!!  😦

Rigoletto Looks Awfully Familiar…

Posted on October 25, 2014 | Leave a comment

This weekend, our local Opera company, Tri-Cities Opera is presenting their first opera of the season —Rigoletto.   I’d love to see it if I had the time (and money) yet, oddly, the thing that struck me immediately about its poster art was the main character.   Does anyone else see an old Leonard Nimoy under the clown makeup here? (Blue eyes notwithstanding)
