Captain’s Log, Supplemental: May 26, 2021

Greetings, Crew!

We're almost into the summer months, with many fun things coming up. I hope everyone has a minute or two to relax on the upcoming holiday weekend. Several of our members have family and friends that have died while serving our country, and our thoughts are with you at Memorial Day.

Here's something that I just learned about and that started on May 12th. As part of Gene Roddenberry's Centennial (he would be 100 years old in 2021), a podcast is being produced daily to share 100 of his notable quotes. Today's quote, for example, is as follows: “I am an alien, and so are you. And yet, somehow we’re also part of each other, and part of everything that is.” Each quote is read by someone special, such as today's guest Doug Jones (what a perfect choice!). Others include "notable celebrities, creatives, and scientific leaders", which is intriguing. You can access the podcasts HERE

You can also access the quotes by enabling Alexa to respond to "Alexa, play the Roddenberry daily quote". Since mine responds to the word Computer, this is doubly geeky and fun. The 100 days end on Gene's 100th birthday - August 19th. There are also other fun things planned, and you can check them out HERE.

That's it for now - see you around the Galaxy!

Mary
