Sometime between 10:52 and 17:27, I thought this stuff was interesting. You might think so too!
- Star Trek Trailer Coming in November: A source tells TrekMovie the theatrical trailer coming in November “is not a teaser, but a real trailer with footage from the film.” Edits are still being made, but it is expected to show the Enterprise exterior and the Enterprise bridge as well as dialog from movie. Which weekend in November the trailer will be released is still up in the air.
- Red Right Hand: THOUGHTS ON THE FIREFLY 7th SEASON PREMIERE: The end is nigh. The last season of Firefly started last night and if the season premiere is any indication, it comes a season too late.
- McCain Defends His Rabid Crowds: The McCain campaign is defending crowd members at its recent rallies who have called Obama a terrorist, accused him of treason and even screamed "kill him" when his association with former Weather Underground member Bill Ayers has been broached. (I was already bothered by McCain and Palin's habit of simply standing by and allowing the invectives to fly. The fact that their campaign is actually sending out press releases defending such outbursts, and trying to twist criticism of their silence into an attack on Obama, is truly, truly disturbing.)
- NY county sends ballots with Barack ‘Osama’: Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama's last name is spelled "Osama" on hundreds of absentee ballots mailed out this week to voters in Rensselaer County in upstate New York. The misspelling, which elections officials on both sides of the aisle insist was simply a typo, is causing embarrassment for the county.
- McCain campaign clears Palin in Troopergate ethics probe: "Trying to head off a potentially embarrassing state ethics report on Republican vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin, campaign officials released their own report Thursday that cleared her of wrongdoing." Well, that's nice of them. In that same vein, I'm about to release a report clearing myself of any wrongdoing as well. How convenient!
