    Nerds Don’t Need No Stinkin’ Roman Numerals To Identify Star Trek Movies

    My husband David and I were watching a cable rerun of one of the original-cast Star Trek movies last night, because we are nerds and thus we have no life. The official title of this movie is something long and involved: Star Trek (Insert Roman Numeral Here): The Search For Spock. At least in our house, the official name of this movie is actually “Star Trek: You Klingon Bastard, You Killed My Son. You Klingon Bastard, You Killed My Son. YOU KLINGON BASTARD, YOU KILLED MY SON.” It takes place on the Genesis planet, immediately after the events in the…

    Many years ago, when I was young and still stuck living in Utah, one of my guilty pleasures was reading the "Letters to the Editor" and shaking my head in wonder and disgust at some of the attitudes expressed there.
