Takara_Soong 4 Posted April 27, 2003 I have had a few inquiries from people asking about the Soong Sisters so I thought I would post how we became sisters. There are 4 of us, Lessa_Soong, Yillara_Soong, DSBS (one of the "s" stands for Soong) and myself. We are not real sisters - two of us live in the the US and two live in Canada. All four sisters were registered at st.com Lessa and I happened to post one after another on a thread at st.com (not about Data believe it or not) and the next person who posted called us the Soong Sisters and it stuck. Yillara and DSBS joined the sisterhood shortly afterward. I was the first to join startrekfans.net, Yillara saw my name when she came to check out the boards and signed up and then we asked Lessa and DSBS to join us and the rest is history. VBG has been so great to us. Making us feel very welcome and accepting our craziness in the good nature that it is meant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VaBeachGuy 12 Posted April 27, 2003 Now why can't I ever find any obsessed Riker fans to bond with? Life's so unfair. One of our Mods is somewhat of a Riker fan, Amy (Luvin1stdegree). She is new to Trekdom though and thinks we all need therapy but she really likes Riker and wonders why there's no Riker sceens without his shirt on... lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yillara Skye 1 Posted April 28, 2003 Hey, Lessa! I think you have found that motto that us sisters have been thinking about. Remember way back about us joking about needing a motto for us....I think you have something there! "Sisters of the heart, soul and mind". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lessa_Soong 0 Posted April 28, 2003 Thanks! Must be that poetic soul of mine that keeps coming up with them Or was that warped mind? :wub: It has been great not only to have a place to get closer (in spirit) to my beloved sisters, but also so many other good quality people here. I have loved every minute of it...that's why i have trouble turning the darn computer off at night! :wub: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
