The Barrett Retrospective

This blog represents my own footprint on the web, and everything contained herein is my own, illustrious opinion.

  • Watch Star Trek:TOS in Star Date Order

    I have always wanted to do this, and I’m sure you have too. And now it is easier than ever before! Thanks to NetFlix online streaming videos, we can now make a list like this possible. I have put together a list of all TOS episodes, sorted them by star date, and added direct links…

  • New Home At Geeky Tech Guy

    First off, let me apologize for being away so long. Health and work have kept me away but I am going to try to do more, to find new ways to promote the show and increase interest in the franchise. The old url will be going away soon and I wanted to save the information…

  • How To Remove ICQ Search From Firefox

    I found a way (finally!) to remove ICQ search as the default. A long time ago, I installed ICQ. It did some things to my PC that I did not like, so I uninstalled it. However, some of the changes lingered. One of those changes was the default search engine in Firefox. I uninstalled Firefox…

  • Hovercraft Mother – Lyrics

    This is a fun song, and I get the impression that where we use the phrase “helicopter Mother”, in the alternate universe they say “Hovercraft Mother. So, I imagine this song takes place in the alternate universe. This was one of the easier songs to decipher. Here are the lyrics as I hear them. I’m…

  • Season 3 Pre Order Arrived

    Blogging from my Evo rocks! I’m excited that my pre order of Fringe season 3 arrived this past weekend. I can’t wait to dig in and watch the special features as well as re-watch what in my opinion was the best season yet of Fringe. What does blogging from my Evo have to do with…

  • Star Trek: The Motion Picture

    I just watched Star Trek: The Motion Picture on Netflix Watch-it-now. This particular version of the movie appears to be the original, not the director’s cut with the new CG special effects. The picture quality is still very good and the music and sound effects are very cool. If you’ve never seen this movie, take…

  • Seven Suns (Setting) – Lyrics

    Seven Suns (Setting) to me reflects the crises we see at the end of Fringe and finding Peter Bishop. I was able to figure out most of the lyrics. Let me know if you have any suggestions. Signs in typewords in hypevoices you hearand faces so near Void the spaceyour name replacedOne can lastfuture to…

  • Keep Climbing – Lyrics

    Keep climbing higher and higher. (8x) I looked inside in search of me.and found a forest in a treeThey tried their best to cut me downand sell my branches by the pound You’re not alone, you’re not the only one (I will be finishing this up soon…)

  • 500 years – Lyrics

    Clearly, this song reflects of the great love between Peter and Olivia and the journey they take across time to be together. The song is sung clearly, so the lyrics were easy to figure out. Let me know what you think. I’ve been waiting for 500 yearsIn the hope that my lost love appears.Watching clouds…

  • Seven Suns (Rising) – Lyrics

    This is one of my favorite songs on the album. I completely identify with the opening lyric. Though some lyrics are difficult to decipher, and I suspect there are some hidden messages in this song. Don’t spoil it it for me, though. I love trying to figure this one out. I’m walking in a world…
