  Three Words Contest

  The Navy has sent me some interesting offers to become an officer after I get done with med school (if I get in), and I know that I would serve in the Navy if they get rid of the "Don't ask, don't tell" policy and allow gays to serve openly.  Considering how badly they need doctors and personnel in all of the designators, I hope they get rid of that policy soon.  I should try to find that 60 minutes program and watch it.  Thanks for mentioning it, JT.

  If you could go back in time would you change your life?

  There are many things that I think about that I would like to go back in time and change, from major life decisions like where to go to college, to minor things like saying things differently in an argument or taking a different class.

  I often wonder what my life would be like if I had gone to one of the colleges that were offering me a full scholarship instead of attending college near home.  I'd have more money and probably have an easier time getting into med school, I'd be somewhere with warmer weather, and a whole bunch of other benefits.  But then I think: I had stayed home to help raise my sisters, and if I had gone far away to college, what would the ramifications for them be?  When I think about what could have changed because of all of the events in my life, I realize that I would be a whole different person if I changed even a few things, and I would not have made a difference in some peoples' lives.

  Also If I had made some small decisions like not going to a party, or choosing a different instrument to play in orchestra, I would not have met some of my closest friends, and had some of the experiences that I have enjoyed.  As in the Star Trek Voyager episode "Year of Hell" and the Next Generation episode "Parallels," each alternate path or fate of people leads to drastic changes in the timeline.  And in H.G. Well's The Time Machine, some events are unavoidable no matter what you do to change them. I would, however, make myself enjoy the moment and not be so worried about the future and hopefully it wouldn't screw up the timeline.  Also, if I had experienced a tragedy such as Mighty's, I probably would go back and change an event, even if it meant being a different person.

  Time travel and its consequences are so unpredictable, though, so it is really a fascinating topic to ponder...

  Excited about Judas Kiss

  I hope everyone is way excited. I am amazed at how fast things are moving along.  In just the past few months, tons of podcasts and blog entries have been made, the script and a revised script have been written, and the website has more than doubled in features, and I'm sure even more great things are on the way.  I'm thrilled to be a part of something so fun!
