Space May Days: The Skyline is the Limit

It’s Space May Days here at The Mustache and The Beard. In the past, weconcentrated on what we refer to as space operas: think Star Wars, Star Trek, and things of that nature, so when it came time to write one up I had little to write about. Star Wars and Star Trek have been […]

Space May Days: Reading Sanctum — Star Trek NOvels Part III

When we decided that May would be our month-long dedication to science fiction, I told the Beard that I would focus my posts for this month on doing Reading Sanctums that would quick-cut review some of the Star Trek novels. We sometimes get top-heavy on movies during our genre-specific, topic-oriented months, and since we love […]

SPACE MAYDAYS: SPACE – THE ANDERSON FRONTIER – FIREBALL XL5: PT. 1

SPACE – THE ANDERSON FRONTIER: FIREBALL XL5 Part One When I was a kid – back in the stone age – there was a name that was synonymous with television science fiction and space opera.

Space May Days: Solis is Solitude

But lately I have come across some real-life firearms that […]

Space May Days: No Royal Treatment

CONTRIBUTING WRITER Lance The (OMG!) Obscure Movie Guy It is Sci-Fi month here at The Mustache and The Beard, and I couldn’t be more excited. I was stoked when the Mustache asked me for a blog post for this month because I knew immediately what I wanted to tell the world about. A little lonely […]

Reading Sanctum #21

For the past several years, in an effort to promote cultural diversity and understanding, Amazon has offered free books on Kindle to celebrate World Book Day. I usually participate by getting several of the free offerings but forget to share the information with our (the Mustache and the Beard) audience. I acquired eight of the […]
