Beam me up Scotty! It's My Birthday!


Today is my 51st birthday. Last year I noted that I share this day with actress Miranda Richardson (born March 3, 1958). Although Jessica Biel was also born today -- a few years after me (I'm old enough to be her father) -- the person that caught my eye this year was none other than Mr. Scott, Chief Engineer of the Star Ship Enterprise. Yes, his alter ego -- the late James Doohan, was born on this date in 1920.

As a Star Trek fan I must acknowledge my fellow birthday mate! So beam me up so we can have a party.

Someone once remarked that everyone wants to go to heaven but no one wants to die. Is being beamed up your way to have your (birthday) cake and eat it too?

Happy Birthday!

Congrats! I turn 47 in April, so I'm glad I'm not the old man of the left-of-center Christian bloggers! :-)

happy birthday! God bless you richly

Word verification for this was "retis" - if that has any prophetic significance I will let you discover!

Thanks Christ, now I have something else to do on my birthday!

Michael -- I'm sure I'm not the oldest one of us out there!

And, if you're a trekker, I think it was Deep Space 9, they found Scotty in a transporter buffer and woke him up a century or so later! So, I guess that's the way it is!
