What makes Dr. Russell Arben Fox laugh? Pretty much the same thing that makes the rest of us laugh.
Eric goes the traditional review route. He likes the film.
Zach skips the deep analysis and speaks as a life long Trek fan.
Dr. Fox enjoyed the movie but does not skip the deep analysis because something about the film, he’s not quite sure what, troubles him.
Dejavaboom waves his Trekker cred, genuflects to the new movie and [...]
Dr. Fox has found a description of the profession of “ragged robes and square hats” that he wholeheartedly embraces.
He’s been doing it wrong. Now he wants to engage in politics with his heart (and time and wallet) as well as his mind. So he joined a poitical party. It’s not the perfect party but its the best place for him right now.
It’s thoughtful, it’s not anti-gun ownership, it’s not pro-NRA and it’s kinda long. A worthwhile read and an opportunity to carry on the discussion, or ask questions, in the comments.
Thoughts on saving Political Science’s place in the liberal arts curriculum.
Dr. Fox is on the horn’s of the classic “free ticket” dilemma; should he use the tickets to see Watchmen, Star Trek: The Reboot, or Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. You can help him decide which one his wife will let him see in his comments section.

In Medias Res provides his weekly return to 80’s video enjoyment.
It includes a special bonus reminder of why no sane person will long for a return to 80’s fashion.
Unintentionally funny opening (“this promotional clip from 1981 was shot in black and white for artistic reasons”) but who can doubt the music machine that is the Who.
Born 3 days after Apollo 8 returned safely to earth and on the same day Trygve Lie, first United Nations Secretary General, passed away, it seems pre-ordained that Russel Arben Fox would be some what politically oriented. He turns loose the teacher in him with 40 lessons for his 40th birthday.
For a more revealing look [...]
A meditation, with lots-o-links, on surrogate births, social conservatism and morality.
What problem? A suggestion that maybe those at the top of the pyramid might have an itty-bitty share of the blame when the world they rule has difficulties. Just a suggestions though. We are really all to blame of course.
A Star Trek movie with the original characters (Kirk, Spock, Scotty etc.) but not the original actors. Is this Diet Dr. Pepper genius or New Coke fail? In Medias Res speaks for all of us.
