It's a Science one from the latest Picard era.

Wow! I had no idea that something like that was available.

BTW, the new era shows have grown on me. I'm kinda hooked.




I'll bet you look great in it!!

There are heaps of different uniforms available on eBay. You can even buy Kirk's jacket from Star Trek Beyond. Very expensive though.

It's better to take a close look at the uniforms if you can. They vary in quality and price.

I wish the film was better, tho. I'd still go with the classic yellow shirt from TOS.

We hosted Trek conventions at the cinema where I used to work, some years ago. The first we spent running all of the films over a weekend - I think this was before the last TNG film - and the Trekkies gathered in full Star Trek uniforms. This is when I realised that middle-aged men shouldn't wear Starfleet uniforms in public. Bill Shatner could barely pull it off, for goodness sake.

Got my first shot of the vaccine and it took only about twenty minutes and that includes the fifteen minute observation period after you get it.

I consider the 15 minute obs. a joke.  Carla got her second shot and came home and developed chills and fever.  No big deal, as it gave me the info to expect the same.  I'll be ready!  The first shot is the easiest, April 23rd will be my second.....and I am ready!

It might be a joke but since I waited I got a coupon for 20% off my next purchase  at CVS :2thumbsup:

As I understand it the observation is to make sure that you don't get an anaphylactic shock, though. They don't really care about chills and fever.

I forgot about that!   But, usually anaphylaxis is pretty rapid onset.  Still fever and chills are easier to deal with.  Tylenol and extra hydration help.

Got two tee shirts  from The Connecticut Air & Space Center for helping them with their new building that will be open this summer.

Looks like a cool place. I love their web site. If you click on the Corsair in the menu, the page that opens will have variants with different liveries fly in.

It will be a much cooler place once their building opens currently everything is in several locations most of which you have to be 18 and sign something to enter due to the government owning the buildings and safety concerns due to it's industrial past
