Things to See in the Upcoming Months

Well, let see:
January 18th - The Secret Science Club presents Astrophysicist and Cosmologist David Hogg (didn't work out but I find the concept of a Science Club very intriguing; definitely something to check out further)
January 21st - the tickets go on sale for William Shatner's Broadway one-man show Shatner's World: We Just Live in It at The Music Box Theater (got a good seat for the opening night!!!)
January 20-22nd - Antiques Show at the Armory (Lexington Ave & 26th St; pity but due to a cold I couldn't make it)
January 21-22nd - Americana & Antiques at the Pier (Pier 92 NYC; similar to above, still feeling quite blah)
January 23rd - A Universe from Nothing with Lawrence Krauss at Hayden Planetarium (fantastic presentation!)
January 28th - RUGM Open House (got some very nice specimens!)
February 1st - A walkthrough trip to a LEED-certified DAS showroom on 6th Ave, arranged through SKYed
February 2nd - No Bones About It with Carl Mehling at AMNH (as usual, a great program)
February 14th - Shatner's World opening night (hysterical!!!)
February 25-26th - The Morristown Armory Antiques Show (found the animal print I've really wanted to purchase!!!)
February (end) - the third Propworx Star Trek Auction (well, this is not really a physical location but a great event nonetheless - Update: turned out to be a bit less than great, the props were somewhat less interesting and much less affordable than last time)
March 6th - Museum Inside-Out with Sidney Horenstein at AMNH (fascinating things about the museum building itself!)
March 31st - New special exhibition opens at AMNH - Creatures of Light. Subject matter is bioluminescence!

In addition, a whole host of fantastic new exhibitions are opening at the Metropolitan! Hopefully, I will eventually get to post further info on all of my trips.

Generally speaking, lots of plans as usual; the to-do list has grown to the size of a small notebook. Shoot, trying to get everything sorted and organized seems to be an exercise in futility half the time!
