To Boldly Go Where No Man (One) Has Gone Before...

MacDaddy up to bat in the rain

MacDaddy's own baseball game was started in blue skies and sunshine and then rained out on Saturday. His rain outs are more exciting because his games are machine pitch, and there is always a chance that there may be fireworks right before they pull the plug and call it a rain out.

MacDaddy made the ride with Mac Mom to Brampton to catch Lil Lefty's last game.

When we got back to Oakville ,I thought it would be fun for a guy's night out. We went to see Star Trek. MacDaddy has been playing with his Mr. Scott toy from a Burger King Happy Meal - "I'm giving it all she's got captain" and said he wanted to see the movie.

To me, there is nothing better than to see a new release movie in a crowded theatre on Saturday night. I do not believe I have done this for years. Our tickets $20. Food for Andrew $25. A night with father and son - priceless.

The movie was good. I really enjoyed seeing the new, young actors saying the old words. Dr. McCoy was really good. MacDaddy liked the way it looked like Star Wars. The story was only OK. Can we please try to stay in one time, these going back and forward confuse people. I assure you that MacDaddy did not get the "gist" of the story. The action, actors and Start Trek lore made it an enjoyable night. The audience applauded at the end of the movie.

If you liked the original, the Next Generation and the movies you will undoubtedly like this movie.
