Actually, I wish I hadn’t.

Kind of like becoming a democrat, huh? :)

But...

Star Trek fans are not all nutso. But a very small number...are.

Unfortunately, the converse is true with democrats.

A very small number...are sane.

“Captain, if my analysis is correct, than Sulu has become, I shudder at the thought, a Lulu”

[Repeal 16-17]

As a Vulcan would say, logic dictates that marriage must be between one man and one woman.

Shatner, Sulu is doing you a favor. Make sure to do something enjoyable that day.

With most of the pairs I’ve seen, there was no doubt about which was the dominant one...

"Brad and I have shared our lives together for over 21 years. We've worked in partnership; he manages the business side of my career and I do the performing. We've traveled the world together from Europe to Asia to Australia. We've shared the good times as well as struggled through the bad. He helped me care for my ailing mother who lived with us for the last years of her life. He is my love and I can't imagine life without him. Now, we can have the dignity, as well as all the responsibilities, of marriage. We embrace it all heartily."

"Star Trek fans are not all nutso. But a very small number...are."

I am a ST fan but not a Trekkie. i have never been to a convention or a gathering. I laugh my a$$ off though every time I see the Shatner SNL skit about conventions. It is sad that there are people who have no identity the become so involved with a TV show - not just ST. There are Sex in the City devotees, American Idol, Brittany Spears and on and on ...

[RedRightReturn]

EXCELLENT observation!!!

Wonder if the framing was intended by the photog, or by God himself...

“Sulu has been assimilated”

CORRECTION: Sulu has been assimmolated

"They probably flip a coin to see who the bride is for the night."

You mean Heads or Tails?

[FreedomOfExpression]

That is a shocking picture.

In some cases, I have met some of those who are, shall we say, crazed.

At a birthday party my sister threw for me 20 years ago (which happened to coincide with the season premiere of Star Trek: The Next Generation that year), one of her club memebrs showed up in a home-made (and rather poorly made) Spock costume. He wore big, plastic Spock-ears, which looked utterly silly. He may have had a touch of cerebral palsy, because he walked a bit strangely. He had no social know-how, and his personal hygiene was...well, shall we say, lacking. Put it this way...the boy flat-out stunk.

I have visited a few sci-fi/fantasy conventions since then, and I have met more of 'that' kind of fan, although I must say they are very much in the minority. The vast majority of the Star Trek fans out there are well-adjusted, smart, and enjoy getting together with other fans. And yes...they do know how to party!

(Oh...if any of you ever go to a 'con', avoid the "Game Room" areas at all cost. The smell will knock you on your backside. Imagine a room full of mostly young men, playing fantasy games for three solid days, drinking high-caffiene energy drinks to keep going, and no showers until they're done. Ewww...)

Press “1” for English???

[Hatteras]

I don’t think I’d invite a washed up, desperate, totally unhinged, lunatic like William Shatner to my wedding either.

[ETL]

Press “1” for English???

Could it have possibly been any less stupid in english? I doubt it. I posted it because it was really stupid.

I wrote: Geez, that was almost as good as this one:

[Mr. Silverback]

With gays and lesbians, you can be the man or the woman, depending on what your mood is that day.

When the mayor in San Fran temporarily legalized gay marraige, I was struck by two things:

How many female couples showed up for the ceremony in sweatshirts and jeans (yeah, marriage is the most important thing you ever had happen to you, I'm buyng it!)

How many female couples consisted of either two mannish-looking women wearing suits or one womanish woman and one mannish-looking woman, leading me to ask: If you were looking for that anyway, why not just get a man??

[Mr. Silverback]

"He's gay, Jim."
