The saddest news to end 2021 that the legend that is Betty White has passed away at 99 years of age, only weeks away from her 100th birthday. I have …
RIP Betty White
I’ve never been particularly aware of my age. It’s like being on a bicycle – I just put my foot down and keep going” Angela Lansbury
Fansbury
Her big blue eyes and pouty lips
Taking a stance, with hand on her hips
Singing, dancing, humour and drama
Clapping our hands, shouting ‘brava’
The Dame, in the name, may have lead you to fame
And our fansburiens lives, have never be the same
Dame Angela, may thy name be written across the skies
We’ll stand down here, making high fives
“Live long and prosper! We come to serve!” Spock, Star Trek
Happy Star Trek Day!
We Trekkies will always keep on Trekking
Watching, observing, learning, burning
For the next new show to come on streaming
Fandom totally strong, that is certainly no jest
Whether we agree on the canon or look for the best
The story lines may vary, sometimes fun or scary
Cartoon, future or the past, Star Trek will last
The series now over fifty years old, still going bold
Or rather boldly, where no show has gone before
And happily digesting all of it, simply because; score!
Yeah, some might think us nerdy and bored
But we don’t care, as long as there is a convention or fair
Somewhere around the world held, even virtual cons
Trekkies have no qualms in watching that tube of a thing
Where even some of their favourite characters sing
Yeah, they really do that, even if we did not ask!
But never mind, whatever is going on is fine
As long as the Trek keeps on going boldly,
Where no other fan has gone before!
Happy Star Trek day to one and all, whether you are a fan or not at all!
With a new Star Trek Day event coming next month, Star Trek fans across the globe will be celebrating 55 years of the Star Trek franchise, coinciding…
Star Trek: A Celebration–Star Trek Day is approaching, celebrate 55 years with new chronicle, now available for pre-order
“A couple of years ago, I was asked, ‘How would you like to be remembered?’ And my answer was ‘That I was very funny.’” Sir Patrick Stewart
Happy Birthday Sir Patrick Stewart!
Totally, a fellow charming
Maybe even somehow warming
When you make us unintentionally laugh
And sometimes, even cry
But, with a voice like that
Sir Pat, in that funky hat!
Maybe a tad, canny as a cat
Who could ever resist
Of being rewarded with a kiss
By a great as fellow
You’re such a helluva
An actor, a Captain and yes, a King
And totally able to sing!
Wishing you a merry, happy and totally great Birthday
And as the cliche goes, if I may
Live Long And Prosper
Oh, Captain of Captains!
“When nine hundred years old you reach, look as good you will not.” Yoda
May the 4th be with you, always!
In a galaxy far far away
To the dark side you may stray
Because you just wanted a holiday
A little weekend escape
With the stormtroopers parade
Just stay in the shade
But after hanging out with Vader
He would surely be the traitor
Hogging all the toilet paper
And sending you to meet your maker
You realized sooner or later
…It was time to flee this theatre
Back on track with team Yoda,
Or these days, even Baby Yoda
I may be missing the scotch and soda
Laying lazily on a soft sofa
But soon it will be time for yoga
And later on TV some Oprah
Who said I could not fill my quota!
Happy Star Wars day to one and all!
And may the Force be with you, always!
Star Wars’ first live-action TV series, The Mandalorian was created by fans for fans, and every frame tugs at the nostalgia the franchise’s fans hold…

“I just laugh. Have I got them fooled.” Betty White
Happy 99th Birthday Betty White or Betty White in 99 words (or more)
Humour without too much censure
Work without any kind of complaint
Always feeling happy and having a smile
Lover or nature and all them animals wild
Maybe even a few of us human kind
Bringing laughter and joy for us all
Never the one to take a down fall
Pretty and witty, now even more so
Having learnt lessons during a life long
Many made shows, taking them bows
Leaving us fans in awe and loudly cheering
And always with a sense of a good feeling
What ever the role, our hearts she stole
Therefore written is this small type of an ode
Within some ninety-nine plus rhyme of words
As there is always room for years more!
“A true beauty for the ages, conqueror of all the stages, she most certainly is” Gun Roswell
Ode to Dame Angela Lansbury, a very happy 95th birthday!
A true beauty, surpassing all ages
The soft and fair conqueror, of film and stages
Nothing she has ever done, or will do, fades
As the one true star, she will always, stay
Dame Angela, a gorgeous rose, by any other name, you might say
Equal, to the one and true talent and all the following fame
And because or despite that, all of us fans, love you just the same
So a very happy ninety-fifth birthday to you, as we do our little parade
In honour, of this truly, and one totally fine day!
