I know we have a few Star Trek fans here so I thought that I'd toss this out.

It's remarkable how involved in the characters one gets having watched it for soooooo many years and in every incarnation.

And what have I learned?

"Who am I to argue with the captain of the Enterprise?"

And as far as the Enterprise goes...

"You treat her like a lady and she'll always bring you home."

They seem to keep putting the release date of the next movie off abut I can't wait to see Sean of the Dead as Scotty.

A "wee lump"? I'm sobbing, thinking about the scene with Spock in the engine room. Maybe that's the vodka tonics talking?

...

And what have I learned?

There's that little list of, "Everything I've ever needed to know, I learned in kindergarten" right? Well, I think it ought to be, "Everything I've ever needed to know, I learned from Star Trek"!

Be well,

Actually, there was a poster once that was titled "Everything I needed to know I learned from Star Trek".

Seek out new life and new civilizations.
Non-interference is the Prime Directive.
Keep your phaser set on stun.
Humans are highly illogical.
There's no such thing as a Vulcan death grip.
Live long and prosper.
Having is not so pleasing a thing as wanting; it is not logical but it is often true.
Infinite diversity in infinite combinations (IDIC).
Tribbles hate Klingons (and Klingons hate Tribbles).
Enemies are often invisible - like Klingons, they can be cloaked.
Don't put all your ranking officers in one shuttle craft.
When your logic fails, trust a hunch.
Insufficient data does not compute.
If it can't be fixed, just ask Scotty.
Even in our own world, sometimes we are aliens.
When going out into the Universe, remember: "Boldly go where no man has gone before!"

I particularly like the one about all of your officers in the shuttle craft.

Actually, a gentleman has written a book by that title. An excellent book, one of the best I've read, and full of life lessons to be garnered from the series.

Thanks for posting that, I still think they pulled Enterprise far too quickly, I wish they had given it a real chance.

My "Next Generation" communicator is still my favorite kilt pin.

Simon Pegg & the creepy villian from "Heroes" are the only two names I recognize from the new cast. Wife & I love Pegg, so we'll prpbably see it in theaters.
