Live long and prosper

2:00 AM. Live long and prosper.

As the Vulcan said these words, I was overwhelmed with relief. The USS Enterprise had saved us humans once again.

2:10 AM. Biwi is furious at me for watching movies till so late in the night. I am tired. Watching 2 Star Trek movies back to back is a daunting task. I lay on the bed and think, "Why has Star Trek been the favorite series of all we boys for decades?". Maybe because of the heroism and recklessness shown by a certain James T Kirk has been what we always aspire for.

I don't say girls are not heroic or they don't like gadgets. Hell no. But then we guys have a natural inclination for the quest of the unknown. The motto of the Starfleet, embodied in the words of Commander Spock (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan), "to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life forms and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before", has inspired many a generation of boys.

I ,on my part, am eagerly waiting for 5th of April, 2063, for the warp drive and the Vulcans to come to the Earth. Time travel and Warp speed travel would be fun!
