This Is What I Think.

No, but I do have winged shoes.

Is this what they were trying to get to remember last year? I was wondering in my journal why they chose to end Enterprise with that Pegasus episode from TNG. There was also the Pegasus on BSG. I commented at the time about my Nike Pegasus shoes that I wore to finish Ironman CDA 2004.

I participated in that first Ironman Coeur d' Alene in 2003, but I dropped out at the mid-point because it was too hot and I was becoming seriously dehydrated. I finished the next year, having quit Microsoft a few months earlier, while wearing a pair of Nike Pegasus running shoes. Interesting detail about those shoes and that date. Based on my theory, that day I finished that Ironman triathlon would have been exactly ten years after that "Stargazer" crash after its Pegasus rocket malfuntioned. I have been wearing that Pegasus model of running shoe for several years and often recorded it in my running journal on my computer because I had a system for tracking how many miles I put on my shoes.

Goddamnit these places creep me out. It is like having to live with zombies. If I listen closely, I’ll probably hear them all mumbling quietly over and over, “brains……brains……brains…..”
