Rest in peace, James Doohan.

You played no small part in a large number of nicknames I had as a kid, and it still comes up to this day.

"Beam me up, Scotty" wasn't so bad. Not bad to be associated with the character of a miracle-worker who liked a nip now and again. Surely beats the "Shop at Scotty's", "Mary, Queen of" or "Scot-towel/tissue" stuff.

Scot Free (or Scott Free) isn't so bad, nor is "Great Scott!"

Nobody gave me any nicknames based on Geraldine Fitzgerald.

Nice collection of applications that run directly off of a usb "thumb" drive. I may start carrying mine again! (for Security and system maintenance tools, if nothing else)

Build your own little paper rocket - it comes complete with a pneumatic launch pad.

"Sounds For The Sun-Set: 2005" - ah, the fun stuff you find on webjay. I rather dig the tonga hut (mp3). It's what the inside of my head sounds like on a good day.

Nifty logo-creator toy.
