A new force is arising... in politics.



Ensign Crusher is the perfect candidate for 2004. Serving for years with his mother on the U.S.S. Enterprise, this Starfleet cadet has what it takes to defeat Bush. If he ran, Crusher would be the only candidate to have intergalactic combat experience. Crusher can get people and aliens of all colors and races together, even those who have never voted before.

We need your help. Join DraftWesleyCrusher.com in supporting Ensign Crusher's bid for President in 2004.

Everyone knows the biggest movie coming out this Christmas is The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, right? Well, to add to the excitment, the most hard-core, you-know-you-want-to-be-a-hobbit LOTR event will be the all-day Lord of the Rings trilogy showing. If your bladder can stand it, ladies and gentlemen - all 10 hours of all three LOTR movies (the special edition versions of the first two), back-to-back. Tickets went on sale Oct. 9. Here's the official list of where it's happening - hope there's one near you!

PS Tickets at the Cinemark in Plano, TX are $25. Tip - try to sneak in your own concessions!
