Spurred by the desire to see the Star Trek movie, I started learning about the Star Trek series. I am now in the process of watching the first Star Trek series. Yeah, I know, I am such a nerd. Well, I guess it is more surprising that I am not a closet trekie. My dad watched star trek and my dad and I watched Stargate and Dr Who together. I guess this was inevitable.
Well, if anyone cares, you can watch all of Star Trek: the original series on CBS. I think they are remastered or something. Anyway, I am not sure how I feel about them yet. I mean, they are no Stargate (hee hee hee). Actually, they are really fun to watch because it is "in the future" but the tools are archaic looking compared to the tools of sci-fi movies and tv shows today. I know it is to be expected but I still think it is funny.
I am not sure if I will be converted to a trekie but I think it is to late for me as far as becoming a nerd. Oh well, I like being nerdy. It means I can say things that are really nerdy and not feel weird about it.

I WILL WATCH IT WITH YOU!!
You and my dad. My dad is the biggest Trekkie I know. Hmm. I take that back. There's a few guys at the space center who easily top him, so maybe he's the 4th Trekkiest person I know. Regardless, we used to have a full size cut out of Data and to this day our garage wall proudly displays a "Voyager Crossing" sign.
So I guess this makes my dad also white and nerdy?
Um...yeah. It does. That's okay. Apparently there are a lot of closet trekies at BYU/in Utah.
