These are high-quality notebooks with archival quality paper.
Much of my writing is pen and paper, and it turns out that good paper also matters a lot. I’m perfectly comfortable with cheap paper in a three-ring binder, but I want something much better for travel and for long-term storage. A bookshelf of these little notebooks also look a hell of a lot better than binders.

An ancient discovery in Egypt, from before the pyramids, is found to be a gateway to another world which is still kept as a slave planet by Ra, a self-appointed god who is an alien just trying to get by.
A fantastic movie. Not exactly mandatory. Perhaps elements of it don’t feel like they have held up well, or maybe there has been so much excellent science fiction before, during and since its time.
If you like this movie, see Stargate viewing order for the viewing order of other shows.

A non-secret organization learns of an assassination plot against the delegation of a new country, and brings on board the ex-girlfriend of the man in charge to save them.
Good enough to spark my interest in these old cheezy spy movies and shows.
Shot in 4:3

A video listing website.
Unfortunately, and as far as I can tell, every video streaming website they list has a maximum of 480p quality. It’s passable for basic reviews and in lieu of a for-pay streaming service, but one must remember that hard-media purchases give not just proper quality but bonus features like commentaries.
While there are other such services, this one seems reasonably complete and has an active userbase. If you know of a better or supplementary service, please contact me.
Note: This website is blocked in the UK. See List of websites blocked in the United Kingdom. That looks like a great list to find other websites.

A stargate is shown to connect to another galaxy, but the trip proves to be one-way and fraught with new evils.
Fairly good, I guess. It’s definitely not as good as Stargate SG-1 – (1997-2007 show) but is a mandatory view if you like that show.
