I argue deep space nine episode \"A Pale Moonli ght\" is the most.Lagos is the capitol of nigeria\, I didn't expect a refe rral to it. HAve you been to lagos? I bet you have been to NYC by the desi gn@Redsterfish I enjoyed the third and penultimate stanza the most. The th ird I enjoyed but needed to search what a lorry is. a big moving vehicle T he penultimate has nice illustration@Whelveaway beautiful sketches\, did y ou see the colors or chose them yourself?@Chaosfive-55 tiss the season for the lunatic's dirge\, my favorite stanza is the second. Love the imagery of \"Feel the gelid liquescence of River Styx Falls\" ohh and curious case of the cougar's daughter is a nice title I will love to see a film versio n\, with a woman falling of the side of the desk like that Your women are so polite\, apologizing for their actions and an uncommon car.. hmm why th e mitsubishi? Of course your detective wants chili haha I do not think i e ver saw a detective who read pulp before\, nice touch. I think I read this before:but it was fun then and fun now@VinceAndrews that portal was reall y like that at the knaresborough? It is interesting how the gate behind th is old door. Nice details fellow inker.@CapnDeek373 the house design or th e environment about the house was inspired by the home of your youth? I se e onyx\, and I think i see bob hanging on the windowsill.

The Dead are a-dragging us all to our doom\, Down the endless insatiable maw of the tomb!Hear the skittery-scratching of rat s in the walls! Feel the gelid liquescence of River Styx Falls As the pale slimy waters wash eye-sockets clean\, Giving our bones a fresh\, shiny ne w sheen!See the skeletons dance in the light of the Moon\, Where the ghast ly ghouls gather to gibber and croon In the vast pit of Tartarus where man kind shall dwell\, Down the dank\, dismal gullet of eternal Hell!!!!!(mani acal laughter\, fading into silence)CLiteratureCurious Case of the Cougar' s Daughter I was sitting at my desk\, flipping through an old issue of THR ILLING DETECTIVE TALES and pretending not to listen as Liberty's prospecti ve client\, a worried-looking fellow with thinning hair and a thickening m idsection\, told her about his aunt's new boyfriend. \"He's in his early t hirties\, Ms. Morgan--Aunt Bedelia is fifty-seven! I don't trust him\, but my aunt is quite smitten and won't listen to my warnings! I want you to f ollow him.\" I rolled my eyes behind the magazine--it was exactly the kind of case I wouldn't touch with a ten-meter cattle prod. Same reason I don' t follow people's spouses around-where's the mystery in jobs like that? Bu t as Liberty likes to remind me\, a job is a job\; still\, better her than me. \"And what is his name\, Mr. Chapman?\" Liberty asked\, notebook in h and\; Arnold Chapman grimaced. \"He calls himself Reginald Crandall--the T hird\, if you please! Probably a fake name...he's about six-one with slick black hair and a pencil mustache!

For example with books\, the romance is the biggest genr e in terms of sales and money\, more than fantasy or horror or other. if n sfw the most profitable sector in deviantart? and I don't think that is a problem. Online adult content has always been the most profitablenon physi cal sale.COMMENT URLhttps://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/1376545231/53094 67213COMMENT CONTENTWhat determinant of popularity is the most viral from the stats provided by deviantart to users? is it views? comments? watchers ? i know all say something but which is the strongest determinant. Someone else \, elsewhere online said most folks lurk online. so comments quantit y may not reflect interest or who is paying attention. .. and watchers can be bots. so I gamble views is the most\, what say your experience?COMMENT URLhttps://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/1378458345/5309467561COMMENT CON TENTI know this is something that must be adjusted to reach the right plac e and can change.

Sexy design\, and I like the color. But thanks for the background\, completes the work@Novadrome I admit i noticed this was abstract impresisonism quite quickly I like how for me\, it seems like eye of a person peering from th eother side of a br oken wall\, but then also a large winged creature flying toward where the sun appears in the sky and then the simple unknown. Nice@RohelineBear prie stess of circuits. has a great look.

Wise was a proven high quality director for his successes in variou s genres and I think he comprehended what star trek needed so well that ev ery single star trek movie after has highlighted the enterprise as represe nting this special way of life.My question is\, as someone who does cospla y. What are your thoughts about the costume of the motion picture in compa rison to wrath of khan and onward for the original crew? I notice you chos e the wrath of khan outfits.I think the motion picture uniforms are less b usy and straight forward. I can see people in the future\, far future\, ha ving a much starker fashion sense than today. I think the outfits of next generation and later seem to suggest Wise was correct in his foretelling f ashion. cause the next generation/deepspace nine/voyager/enterprise/discov ery uniforms seem closer to the motion picture than wrath of khan.What say you?@pinkythepink an hour and a half\, nice work on the badge. LEonard Ni moy I love as a fellow artist. The truth\, and looking at shatner's recent documentary proves this\, is that paramount never really cared or cares f or star trek. Paramount wants to go another way\, it is a cash cow\, but a t its heart star trek is not like all the other major media film brands. T hey can't milk it into a constant stream of terror like an alien or predat or. It isn't vast as a star wars\, Star trek has a controlled science fict ion. It doesn't have the modern escapism or fantasy that marvel or DC can provide. Star Trek isn't now\, by star trek's own accounts now is messy no w isn't good\, now isn't elegant\, now isn't the best\, now isn't the hope \, the hope is later\, not now by star trek's account and I think that mak es some people retort from star trek. As mccoy said\, today is the dark ag es. People today call yesterday the dark ages but star trek calls today th e dark ages\, spider man is the dark ages. the avengers is the dakr ages. superman is the dark ages. Leonard nimoy comprehended paramount didn't car e for star trek even with its value and he was the one who was prepared fo r wrath of kahn\, when whispers say paramount was looking to shut star tre k down after the motion picture. And then Nimoy did the whales and I parap hrase him\"we had death in every single film\, deckerd and haialiyah\, spo ck\, and kirk's son\, we wanted a story with no deaths and the heart of st ar trek\" and for me\, I love the whales and I argue it is the best of the star trek films. Khan is still the best collective performance and a grea t part 2 film. But in terms o fmood\, upbeat positivity\, nothing beats th e whales.Did anyone buy the bead dresses? they look real cool@DrMistyTang it's funny you mention Uhura isn't snark cause in parallel uhura isn't dis respected. When you look at the film Alien\, ripley's love interest dallas \, doesn't trust her position and gets everyone but her killed. She has to fight everyone \, including the other female crew member to get her point across of to be believed. in terminator 2\, sarah connor is in an insane asylum\, while being 100% correct. yes if she was a man she would probably be in the same situation because of the various external interest. In sta r wars\, leah has to constantly battle with han or luke who treat her as s ome fine lady or gentle female. She never treats them with the same gentle ness even though she loves them both. The brilliance of Uhura is she is on e of the few female characters who for the most part is never questioned b y males because she is a woman. She isn't treated less or greater than. Sh e isn't treated like a flower that can't survive\, nor is she treated like an idiot r someone who doesn't warrant her post. How many other female ch aracters in well known media can say they haven't been questioned based on them being a female by a male?Yes\, I love the Vulcan Harp / Ka’athyra too . The funnest thing to me\, is it is an open instrument. It doesn't ha ve an official way .solohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mVABxsfz6UUaccompa nied by a theraminhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xRfbWrI03gcnot vulcan bu t fandom loves fandomhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4n2dGwYcp9k@47ness I have no idea of any of those pets.

Funny thing abo ut this episode? It wasn't even the actual pilot episode of Star Trek! Aft er a failed first pilot episode was rejected as \"too brainy\" for audienc es\, a rare second pilot episode secured the show's future\; but even that pilot wasn't aired until the third episode of season 1. \"The Man Trap\" won out as it featured distinct sci-fi elements\, a mysterious alien monst er\, and showcase the main trio of Kirk\, Spock\, and McCoy. Who knew!   In honor of this stellar anniversary\, I have a galaxy full of fun Star Tr ek facts\, fictions\, and fantasies for you to enjoy below. Set phasers fo r fun!
