  1. Hey, all I know is when someone gets into an elevator at work and says "Bridge"... they're a Trekkie!

     

    My work is done...

     

     

    I do not say "bridge", I just think it.....And I wouldn't be thinking it if you hadn't told me that it was going to pop into my mind.


  2. I was assured that I was free to post here, so please, no hate mail....but I do not understand the fascination with this movie. Sure, there were a few funny scenese, but really didn't find all that entertaining.Sorry!

    You probably have to be a big Sci-Fi fan to really enjoy it as much as some of us do and to get a lot of the humor.

     

    Personally I love the movie and laugh at it just as much each time I watch it as the last time I watched it. After you've watched it 7 or 8 more times you'll get into it more...

     

     

    There won't be a 7th or 8th time...


  3. This is pretty long...sorry!

     

    Some of you may be aware that when I joined this board, it was not actually a "Star Trek" board. That is the reason I joined it. Well, that and wanting to support VBG in his crazy endeavors. For those who do not know...I am not a Star Trek fan. In fact, science fiction is probably my least favorite genre of entertainment. Our fearless Federation President has spent the last 12 years accusing me of being a "Trekkie", a name I have vehemently denied. Well, the other night he decided to give me a little pop quiz on the ST culture. Much to my shock and horror, I think I passed it! Today at work I was thinking about the conversation that followed and I realized he had been scheming against me all along....so I emailed him my suspicions...here is his plan, as I see it.

     

     

    (the following is my email to him)

     

    Yep, your plan. At first I thought you had set it in motion just a few months ago but upon further thinking, I realized it all started much, much longer ago then that. Maybe even the first time we chatted. They way I figure it, you were surfing the net looking for an unsuspecting victim and you happened to find me on Sly's list and thought.....hmmm, she seems gullible.

     

    So then we started chatting...and you told me all about your love of Elvis and Alabama and then you struck.....the first mention of Star Trek! I, of course, refused to be swayed. But you were persistent...I'll give you that. Over the course of the next 12 years you've managed to casually introduce Star Trek stories, references, themes, trivia, etc into our conversations. Little did I know what you were setting me up for. How naive I was then...even willing to watch most of TOS and several episodes of TNG, just trying to be fair and give the show a chance....why, I even watched some of the motion pictures!

     

    All the while you were secretly plotting...developing a message board all about Star Trek and tricking me into signing up! Claiming it was really an "Alabama" board, how clever! I never guessed.....what a fool I was.....

     

    As the years wore on, I had no clue how the Star Trek culture had seeped into my mind and got stuck there. Over and over I swore I was not a sci-fi fan. I was sure of it. But somehow, some way, that started to change. Slowly at first. So slowly that I wasn't even aware of what was happening inside my own head! You did it! You were controlling me! And I had no idea!

     

    Then, when the time was right, and my unsuspecting mind was at it's weakest, you struck the final blow. You created the server......and gave me access....all the while knowing that you would put Survivor on there. And you knew I couldn't, wouldn't resist. I just had to watch. I couldn't stop myself. Not even when I knew I should. I should just turn off the pc and go to bed. After all, I had to work in the morning...but maybe just one more....the episodes are only 43 minutes long. It would take me at least that long to fall asleep anyway so why not? It didn't matter if I was sleepy the next day. It's not like my job is life or death, it's paper work for pete's sake. Who cares?? So up late I stayed, night after night, episode after episode...watching....being carelessly distracted by Colby.....and after a few short months you were ready to drop the axe.....

     

    You knew I was ready for the test because you had been planning it for years! You prepped me by coercing me to stay up late, causing my sleep deprivation....and that is how you managed to get my defenses down and go in for the kill!!!

     

    Imagine me, admitting to being a Trekkie?!?!?! (okay I didn't really admit to it, I just didn't deny it)

     

    You scoundrel.......

    "Sexy!"

     

    That's a direct quote...

     

     

    I'm sure JP has better taste. lol


  5. As most of you know, I am not a Star Trek fan at all. But this show, Big Bang Theory, cracks me up every week. I blame Kevin each and every time I understand a Star Trek reference.

    you are aware of the name of this site? lol

     

     

    Yes, I am aware. If I remember correctly, and VBG can verify this, it didn't start out as STF.

     

     

    Interesting, what did it start out as?

     

    It originally started out as a board for fans of the group Alabama. I think that lasted about 2 days. :clap:

    NOT A TREK FAN. How sad, :jaw::clap: how ever all may not be lost if you are a Leinenkugel's fan :clap:

     

     

    Nope, not a beer drinker.

     

    Not Trek Not Beer, probably not a BEARS FAN. What about Volleyball? :clap:

     

     

     

    Only watch the Bears when they are playing the Packers. Only watch volleyball when my niece is playing. Anything else? Lol

     

    VBG and AE said you like Alabama. Country Music is great and they are a great group

     

     

     

    Finally! Something we agree on! Whoo hoo!

  10. Brett should retire. Period.

    No, I think he should play another 10 years. Play for the Vikings for a couple, the the Bears and heck maybe even the Lions...

    And why would you want that? (she asks, already knowing the anwer)

     

    No special reason... :)

     

    uh huh

  12. Did I send you that???

    Yep, with the Romulan Ale and the Gold Pressed Latinum candy bar lol

     

     

    I vaguely remember the candy bar, and worrying that it would melt before it got to you. The travel guide is completely erased from my memory......old age must be setting in.....

    lol

     

     

    So have you visited any of the places listed in the travel guide?

    All of them, multiple times lol

     

     

     

    I see......
