I may fall in love with Star Trek all over again...

[Muffin]

Oh good greif................  *head desk*

That's it.... Next year you get your own tree.. Hidden in the basement or a closet or if you are lucky you might just have your very own geek room...

Thank goodness geek isn't contagious!! LOL! 

Oh and Baby.... You might want to tuck that in...... 

[Just Randall]

Ummm, Bacardi, she DOES realize she dresses up for renaissance festivals, right?

Oh, and since she's with you... geek-by-default.

[Hibernian]

You mean you're suppose to put them away after Christmas?

The Enterprise from the alternative time line (last year), and this year's Reliant have their own power supply (yeah Scotty!) so they stay out all year now!

[Marietta Graziella]

I'm with you, Muffin.  All these hot, oft times kilt wearing, men, are steadily losing ground with all this Star Trek geekiness. 

It's such a guy thing. 

Unless of course you have a few Capt Picard figures.   

[Rani Zemirah]

Ummm... guess I'm the odd one out here, then, 'cuz I just think it makes 'em that much hotter! Oh, and thinking of them all in uniform at the opening is kinda like contemplating an extremely tempting buffet filled with all my favorite things!!!    

[Captain Jack Wolfe]

Since there's no danger of me wearing a kilt, never EVER, I'll continue the geek-fest.

The latest conjectural renderings of the re-imagined NCC-1701:

[Marietta Graziella]

Obviously my sarcasm didn't translate into the post.

I have always been a Star Trek fan.  Started watching the original with my dad when I was a kid.  I like some shows more than others, but overall found it a great escape.   

I just like to tease you guys.

Rani's right, though...  A line up of men in those uniforms...  Oh, is it warm in here?

[Welsh Wench]

33. Picard's engineer wears goofy wrap-around sunglasses. Kirk's engineer wears a kilt and can drink you under the table.

Ummm, Bacardi, she DOES realize she dresses up for renaissance festivals, right?

Oh, and since she's with you... geek-by-default.

Uh.. sorry to burst your dork bubble... Dressing up for renaissance festivals is a far cry from being a sad sack at a trekkie convention, standing on the corner waiting for their Mom to pick them up.. LOL!!! 

Still.... Have to love all my geeky kids...
