Death by Snoo Snoo?

There's always Amazon.com.

That got me thinking, did the Society of Mandarins continue on after the destruction of Ayer's Rock? But it's likely that Hobbes set his turret for Auto.

The other night I had this weird dream about Wing Commander. I don't recall the details but I do remember one phrase: Wing Commander on Ice. And I think I recall Hobbes doing a triple-axle. Of course this got me wondering, what's the weirdest WC related dream or thought you've ever had?

I've recently upgraded to a computer with a Pentium III prossessor running Windows 2000. Needless to say I'm having trouble installing and running Wing Commander III (Stand-Alone Version) on this machine. What can I do to fix this? PS: Are there problems running the Kilrathi Saga version on...

I would not be surprised to see a TCS Bismark or TCS Yamato (and for me, a TCS Enterprise is a given). Now here's a ship I'd like to see: TCS Nelson.

I rather like the Junior one. I also like the Surgeon callsign, however I've a suggestion. Perhaps Doc would work better. Here are some other callsigns. If these have been taken or you do not feel these to be applicable, please disreguard. Katana (My personal callsign, you can use it if you...

If that falls through, I can do my lonly man tradition of eating leftover Trick-or-Treat candy and watch Young Frankenstein.

Call me a humourless killjoy, but I just don't think that making fun of the deaths of six million innocent people is funny. Although I did like the episode where Timmy and Jimmy join the Crips. And now back to the current topic. Since I'll be holding out for the DVD box set featuring all six...

Well, at least Jar Jar's not in it. and the guns have not been replaced by Walkie-Talkies. You know, it kinda makes me think of that one South Park episode where the kids bitch about the special edition versions of E.T. and Star Wars stating that Speilberg and Lucas are a couple of greedy Jews*...

That "Longbow" may very well be a Shuttle (whos design influenced the Longbow we all know and love). Just take a look at the aft section, Notice the four engines. On the Longbow, there is a turret where those engiens are. Therefore, we can assume that the vessel in "Word of Honor" is an SAR or...
