Saw the whole thing (well, 95% of it). Pretty cool. Chris
Rock was great as a host and carefully stayed on the fine
line between respect and outrageousness. Everyone deserved their
nominations and also those who won Oscars.

... Oops, I've been so busy that I forgot to watch the All-Star game on
Sunday (Feb 20). Looks like the East won though. That's ok,
my favorite team is sucking this year, so I've practically lost
interest in pro-basketball for the rest of its season.

We have finally reached the
planet, February and have anchored ourselves in synchronous
orbit. After prelimary scans of the planet's surface, we have
found no evidence nor traces of life. This was rather odd as we
saw the planet as being Class 3, Earthlike in its atmospheric content,
pressure and temperature. We analyzed its revolution and attained
it to be approximately 28 days. Our science officer requested
that we further investigate the surface at closer inspection. I
approved and had her proceed to accrue a landing party. Before
she left, she remarked that if they do find something, she hopes it
will be even more fascinating than the tumultuous ride we had that got
us here. We don't expect to
encounter anything, but we will have to see.

We've been travelling towards our destination, planet February, the second world in the Gregorian Calendar system, for almost a month now. Our ETA at this time is close to one more week. Our chief scientist says we should not be encountering any more turbulence or other obstacles on our course, whether it be the widespread asteroid field we just passed, known in this sector as the Snowstorm, or strange thermal radiation events that quite heated up our ship. Anyway, the clock ticks. Ensign Thumper has signed on as resident extraterrestrial music historian. She has great knowledge on percussive instruments and other forms of idiophones from approximately 100 different cultures, stretching across this galaxy. Hope to collaborate with her some time during our next shoreleave.
Attempts to catch the rebel Klingons
at Uranus on the outer rim were further delayed by an anomalous moving
gravimetric source nearby. This mysterious source was infamously and
aptly named the Flushing Point, as it hauled floating debris into its
black hole. Unfortunately, the Klingons were caught and permanently
sealed to their untimely and gruesome death. We were nearly caught in
the clutches of this storm ourselves during the chase, but managed to
pull away.
We now have to get to drydock as the ship became all wet by this
hair-raising experience.
