Visit The One-Minute Writer for more prompts. 

Prompt for the day is to write the most satisfying labor that you've done? 

My satisfying labor was to write a five-minute skit for my group to be ready the next day. My shift ran from 2:00 PM to 10:00 PM so I had to wake to up around 5:00AM to make it work. Lolz.

Monday Squee: Hawaii Five 0

Monday Fix is now Monday Squee which is I think much better since the word just profess nearly contained excitement. Lolz. It's the gist I get after I've visited fanfic sites or forums and this word comes up followed by a happy moment that made a forum member smile.

So Monday Squee is a weekly meme that I started several Mondays ago here. This meme is anything really that gets you to start your day. It's either your fave coffee or tea blend, listening to your music of the day from your  list of fave music artists, your garden bloom, your fave TV show etc.

For my Monday Fix Squee has been revolving anything Hawaii Five -O :)

Just a Review: Starfleet Academy: Delta Anomaly

Summary from the back book cover:

After a rough week at Starfleet Academy, James T. Kirk and his friends blow off steam at San Francisco's hottest new club. Their good times come to a screeching halt, however, when one of the cadets is attacked by someones who seemingly appears out of thin air.

Bones and his medical team save the cadet's life, but they uncover the horrifying consequences of the attack. Meanwhile, Starfleet's investigation reveals the assailant is actually a brutal serial killer from the past–a mysterious entity known only as the Doctor. Who is the Doctor, and why has he returned after disappearing more than twenty years ago?

At the urging of Commander Spock, Cadet Uhura is called to decipher a message from the Doctor. Spock has no idea that by enlisting Uhura's help, he has placed her firmly in the Doctor's sights.

Before long Kirk, Uhura and Bones are caught up in the Doctor's dangerous web as they race against time to stop the killer before he strikes again.

My thoughts
If you haven't seen JJ Abrams Star Trek  movie reboot go rent a copy  to get a little acquainted with the established main characters.

Follow Friday (2)

Follow Friday is hosted by Rachel of Parajunkie.com and Alison of Alison Can Read  If you want to join in the fun just head over the blogs mentioned above and start checking out the various answer for today's question:

Q: If you could change the ending of any book or (series), which book would you choose? Why  and to what? 


Hmmm, this need some slight rumination. *joke* I don't know if anyone still reads Hardy Boys series this time (lolz) but my high school years, I was a huge fan of the books and when it ventured to the case files format, I was still digging it. The Hardy Boys Casefiles # 4 "The Lazarus Plot"

Casefile 4

The ending was Joe and the Lazarus leader were in a face-off. The belligerent Lazarus leader wouldn't tell Joe Hardy if Iola survived the explosion when her car was bombed by the Evil Inc. two casefiles earlier. I was left hanging wondering about Iola's real demise even after reading the last of the casefiles produced by Archway Productions. *sigh*

PS. After surviving the Hardy Boys re-make (back in the early '90's) and if the detective brothers will once again return to the small screen with a generous swirls of Smallville/Supernatural/ and MacGyver's ingenuity/High School Musical vibes and mystery ingredient into it, this would be my cast:

Kelly Blatz seen as "Aaron Stone" 

I imagined him to portray Frank Hardy, the level-headed and cool as cucumber older brother of Joe Hardy.

CSI: NY Finale end title song: Ross Copperman "Holding on and Letting Go"

After tearing up inside because of the resolution to the missing kid's story and her eventual reunion with her mother after nine long years being with a snatch-and-grab guy, this song was played in the background while Mac watched his people go about their duties.He had a close brush with the death at the opening of the episode and now, he seemed to be contemplating what will be his next move.  Is he leaving CSI? *gasped* It won't be the same with Mac.

Sela Ward joins the cast

If you're like me who's very much keen when it came to music soundtrack, here's a site that has tracked down the song list for each episode.  Thank you!

Summary

When Abraham Lincoln was nine years old, his mother died from an ailment called the "milk sickness." Only later did he learn that his mother's deadly affliction was actually the work of a local vampire, seeking to collect on Abe's father's unfortunate debts.

When the truth became known to the young Abraham Lincoln, he wrote in his journal: henceforth my life shall be one of rigorous study and devotion. I shall become learned in all things—a master of mind and body. And this mastery shall have but one purpose."

While Abraham Lincoln is widely lauded for reuniting the North with the South and abolishing slavery from our country, no one has ever understood his valiant fight for what it really was. That is, until Seth Grahame-Smith stumbled upon The Journal of Abraham Lincoln, and became the first living person to lay eyes on it in more than 140 years.
Using the journal as his guide and writing in the grand biographical style of Doris Kearns Goodwin and David McCullough, Seth has reconstructed the true life story of our greatest president for the first time—all while revealing the hidden history behind the Civil War, and uncovering the massive role vampires played in the birth, growth, and near-death of our nation.
