This week's prompt: Trek I had planned to use an anonymous prompt but this weekend has been a tad busy, and my thyroid is still not being completely cooperative. I do have lots of dates available, and when I get my daughter's softball schedule, I may need people to take dates in the next few weeks. I'll update as I know. Thanks.

Hmmm, that prompt reminds me that Becky is writing a cross over with Star Trek and G-Force.

And I need to get back to it so bad!!!! Just saw the movie. I loved it. I won't give anything away.

That sort of inspired me as I was thinking about this at 10 PM last night. We are going this afternoon.

Becky, your crossover is great. And your House story. I'd love to see updates to both.

Since my town lost its movie theater, I'll have to take a trek to seek the movie. *cries* North or South, it's an hour's drive to any theater. Crossovers are fun ... I'll think "OMG that can't possibly work" and go read them, and go "well I'll be, it worked."

Pssst, CW, I don't want to push you to illegal acts, but what about streaming?

We see so few movies in the theatre anymore, and simply wait 6 months until it's available on DVD. But we're thinking of going to see the Star Trek movie this weekend, mostly because we're going to the big Star Trek Con in August and we want to be 'in the know' before we get there, in case there's a good panel on the 'new' Trek.

We've got not one or two but 4 theaters within a five mile drive. You'd think it'd be oversaturation, but they're all going strong.

Within a five mile drive, we have one one-screen theater that has been in operation or disrepair for about 100 years. Currently it is operating as over-priced cinema showing a variety of not-so-current releases and trending classics. I think the last film I saw there was Polar Express in a Christmas rerelease years ago. Within 30 miles, we have two, one is closed down, but I'm not counting any that are considered 30 miles, but are closer to 45 as we drive over the mountain. TJ, I'm with you, we are vary careful about the movies we see in theaters because everything is so expensive. Before this, the last movie we saw was Deathly Hallows part 2. However, I think I'll be seeing two movies this year. DD wants to see Catching Fire in November, has already started bugging me, and since I've finally read the books, I'll likely see it with her. Well, actually, I'll take her and a few friends and then they'll ditch me in the theater.

My town is about 15,000 people. We did have a theater for about 5 years (maybe longer, I have a terrible sense of time), but whether it was mismanagement or low attendance or a combination thereof, it just couldn't survive. In particular, what ultimately killed it was the need to upgrade to digital projection. They were already struggling badly and just couldn't afford it. Quite depressing. It was fun to go out to see a movie 5 mins from my house.

That's a good point. I had forgotten about that one! My DD will likely want to see it too, and I'll be taking her. But it will just be the two of us at least, and not the whole family.

Oooh a potential lead. Just imagine if they were trying to retrace Joe's steps this way.

So what is wrong with Ken? Scratches can get septic quickly.

I have some other questions I would be asking as well. The other recruits that have the symptoms, where did they fall in the rankings? Behind or ahead of Ken. Was there something in the food they ate on that 59th day that made them ill? I could go on, but will leave it at that and wait for the next instalment.

I think CD pretty much covered all of my ideas/thoughts! I'm waiting to see what comes next...

Ok, once more I'm totally overwhelmed and can't get my act together to write

And I was complaining about the fact that Brussels has only a couple of multiplexes downtown (I can't drive, so other options are out).

KT- almost like a Gatch -CSI story, can't wait to read the rest!

You're still so teasing my curiosity, KT! DT is right! I so like the CSI genre and that's what I'm liking in these installments! I also like to join CD and TJ when asking the same questions!
