Ok, so if you’ve been over to Geek Dad you saw an article that hoped to settle the debate once and for all of who was the better starship captain, Kirk or Picard.
The only problem is Geek Dad is just way off base. So as a public service, I present to you the Geek Dad questions re-answered BubbleMixx style. Text in quotes is lifted from Geek Dad.
1. Leadership Style – “Kirk is brash; Picard is contemplative. Advantage: Picard.” Or so says 
Geek Dad. But consider this. Kirk was boldly going where no one had gone before, where as Picard was following dumbly along in his footsteps. Kirk had to deal with entire Klingon Empire, the Romulans, and more, while Picard had to deal with some cyborgs. Hell Picard got turned into a cyborg. Nobody ever turned Kirk into a Klingon, (except in disguise). Finally Kirk had military chain of command on the bridge, and listened only to his first officer. Picard had a kid on the bridge, the irritating Wesley Crusher, and if that’s not bad enough had a freakin’ ships counselor on the bridge too! Kirk would have blasted them both out the nearest airlock. Real Advantage: Kirk
2. Difficulty of Success – “I mean this from a character point of view: Captain Kirk only had to deal with being compared with Dr. Robinson from Lost in Space and captains from old sci-fi movies; Captain Picard had to handle being compared with Kirk. Advantage: Kirk” You’re damn right. Real Advantage: Kirk Read more of this article »

America's Election Hangover
Many Americans woke up this morning with an election hangover. Last night we were waiting for results to trickle in, waiting for concession and acceptance speeches resulting in too little sleep, and too much Wolf Blitzer.
But that’s not the only cause for many of us, there’s also a hole in our collective psyche; a “what do we do now?” feeling.
Canvas? Donate? Call? Those things are all done now. This election that we’ve worked for months to accomplish, well it’s accomplished. Now we sit back and wait for Obama and his transition team to do their job, and count the days until 1/20/09.
76 days left of the Bush administration. 76 days left of this Congress.

I’m on my way home from Hawaii and snapped this “newsy” photo at LAX baggage claim.
You can easily tell this is LAX by the fact that no one around them is paying any attention to the fact that she’s wearing a French Maid outfit, complete with garter.
I asked my wife why she never greets me at the airport in a French Maid outfit, and she hit me. Oh well, we’ll always have Paris.
