A Sense of Doubt blog post #2628 - T-shirt Reprint #39 - from 2013 - for BV#64 - 2204.29



A Sense of Doubt blog post #2628 - T-shirt Reprint #39 - from 2013 - for BV#64 - 2204.29

Today is reprint day!

Instead of simply selecting a year and then finding the post for that date, I looked at several and posted the best in my opinion.

In case you are interested, I almost posted these:





So, then, decided to go with a T-Shirt from 2013.

Thanks for tuning in.

Blog Vacation Two 2022 - Vacation II Post #64
I took a "Blog Vacation" in 2021 from August 31st to October 14th. I did not stop posting daily; I just put the blog in a low power rotation and mostly kept it off social media. Like that vacation, for this second blog vacation now in 2022, I am alternating between reprints, shares with little to no commentary, and THAT ONE THING, which is an image from the folder with a few thoughts scribbled along with it. I am alternating these three modes as long as the vacation lasts (not sure how long), pre-publishing the posts, and not always pushing them to social media.

Here's the collected Blog Vacation I from 2021:

T-shirt #39: The UFP symbol: United Federation of Planets




T-shirt #39: The UFP symbol: United Federation of Planets

This shirt was my first Star Trek related shirt as an adult.

In previous blog entries, I have shared about my affection for logos. And one of my favorite logos is this one for Star Trek's  United Federation of Planets, the United Nations of the future, and the overseer of organizations like Star Fleet.

Isn't this a beautiful logo? I have a book published in the late 1970s with this logo on the cover. I think it is the perfect logo for the UFP, even if it is strongly derivative of the United Nations logo.

This shirt was also a gift from my parents, and I am very fond of the shirts I have received as gifts. I have another gift shirt scheduled for tomorrow (which recently came in the mail), and I will fill in more text on the sentimentality and importance of gifts in my life in future blog entries.

This entry is very brief today because I have been buried with a huge homework project, which put me behind with the jobs I do for actual money.

Mainly, I just want to dangle a teaser for the upcoming Star Trek film, which is due on May 17th. There was also a delicious clip in the IMAX feature of the Hobbit for those who managed to spy it there. Our beloved crew (and especially Mr. Spock) are in for quite the ordeal.

Though this movie clip really does not feature the United Federation of Planets in any way, it really fuels extremely well the overall excitement I have for the upcoming JJ Abrams film Into Darkness. I am certain that I am not alone in watching the clips that are released on the Internet with an increased salivation factor and eager anticipation.

Enjoy!

While I wait for the film's release, I will be wearing this and other Star Trek shirts with pride.

This one was the first.

If I am going to advertise something, and I am going to advertise something all the time, then it's logos.

It's all about the logos.

- Days ago = 2492 days ago

- New note - On 1807.06, I ceased daily transmission of my Hey Mom feature after three years of daily conversations. I plan to continue Hey Mom posts at least twice per week but will continue to post the days since ("Days Ago") count on my blog each day. The blog entry numbering in the title has changed to reflect total Sense of Doubt posts since I began the blog on 0705.04, which include Hey Mom posts, Daily Bowie posts, and Sense of Doubt posts. Hey Mom posts will still be numbered sequentially. New Hey Mom posts will use the same format as all the other Hey Mom posts; all other posts will feature this format seen here.

We finally finished Star Trek New Generation on Netflix and are watching the next season of Picard. I was very proud of myself that I caught a call back moment on Picard from the new generation show.
