[Emperor Dalek]

Currently watching the Star Trek @ 40 top 5 episode countdown on Sci-Fi (well, until Mrs Emperor Dalek comes in and changes channel anyway). They're on number 2, City at the Edge of Forever. Was expecting that to be number 1. Oooh, the suspense.

Star Trekkin' across the universe
On the starship enterprise
Under Captain Kirk
Star Trekkin' across the universe
Boldly going forward cause we can't find reverse

There's klingons on the starboard bow
Starboard Bow Starboard bow
There's klingons on the starboard bow
Starboard Bow Jim

It's life Jim
But not as we know it
Not as we know it
Not as we know it
It's life Jim
But not as we know it
Not as we know it Captain

There's klingons on the starboard bow
Starboard Bow Starboard bow
There's klingons on the starboard bow
Starboard Bow Jim

Star Trekkin' across the universe
On the starship enterprise
Under Captain Kirk
Star Trekkin' across the universe
Boldly going forward still can't find reverse

It's worse than that
He's dead Jim
Dead Jim
It;s worse than that
He's dead Jim
Dead Jim
Dead

It's life Jim
But not as we know it
Not as we know it
Not as we know it
It's life Jim
But not as we know it
Not as we know it Captain

There's klingons on the starboard bow
Starboard Bow Starboard bow
There's klingons on the starboard bow
Starboard Bow Jim

Star Ship Captain James T. Kirk

Ah! We come in peace
Shoot to kill
Shoot to kill
Shoot to kill
We come in peace
Shoot to kill
Shoot to kill Men

It's worse than that
He's dead Jim
Dead Jim
It;s worse than that
He's dead Jim
Dead Jim
Dead

It's life Jim
But not as we know it
Not as we know it
Not as we know it
It's life Jim
But not as we know it
Not as we know it Captain

It's the tribbles. Good, but not as good as City... and Mirror Mirror (that was no. 3).

I've kind of rediscovered Star Trek with it being on Sci Fi the last few weeks. It's become my thing of the moment to watch 5 days a week on Sky for a couple of weeks before I get sick to death of repeats.

William Shatner is doing adverts for breakfast cereals. What next, patrick steward doing stand in for Ben Dover?

Or maybe the Scottish chap supporting devolution for Scotland, while living anywhere but Scotland....?

Oh well, he is probably dead by now, so it will have to be Sean Connery, that poster grandfather of Scottish Independence...oops.. he is living abroad to avoid paying tax that might help his own counrty while lecturing others.... just like Bono...

Ho hum. It seems only poor people are truly patriots.....

By "Scottish chap" I guess you're referring to Canadian James Doohan?

[cojak]

Who has retired to the ultimate Star Fleet Academy...


RIP Scotty.
