I guess one of the perks of having your sister work for the overseas marketing department at Paramount Studios is that you can arrange for studio tours over there. So this Friday I'm getting a personal tour around the lot... and she promised that I can go see Star Trek related areas and take photos.

Personally I wanna see what's left of the Star Trek prop storage and see if that broken 4 foot Galaxy Class model is labeled USS Trinculo.

I'll be taking videos and photos for my entire time that I'm there and posting it to my account on JuiceCaster so feel free to take a look this coming friday.

Except that, uh, none of us can see any of that shit unless we sign up for the service. FAIL.

Um, it looks like I'm watching stuff on there without logging in.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong?

Anytime he posts picture or videos or the like, I can never see shit. All it does is ask me for a login.

Well that's very appreciative, isn't it?

Thanks in advance for any scoops you get, Mikey, and if I have to sign up for a free account to see them(which it doesn't seem as though I do), then so be it.

Be on the lookout for models of the Nebula and Constellation classes, which are about the only studio models that haven't been sold off.

I've posted stuff to other boards before without an issue... hmmm. And people seem to see me ride that bull video when I posted it.

I'll post it on Flickr for this board then but the videos and photos will first post to JuiceCaster as my phone has it.

BTW, you don't need to sign up to view my Player on JuiceCaster... you can still view my content.

It was a fun tour... too bad that the only props left from Star Trek are the ones in Las Vegas and in two shipping containers from the Star Trek world tour. I will post the other stuff when I'm sober on Saturday.

I did score a tour of the Star Trek XI sets when they go up in a month or so. I will take pix and video of that when I go back.

I have plenty of experience in biology. I bought a Tamagotchi in 1998... And... it's still alive.
