I like Star Trek, especially Jean-Luc Picard, Benjamin Sisco and Kathryn Janeway. In fact I like all TV programs about space.
One thing I don't understand though. Why is it when they meet a new race they show them round the Enterprise space ship and explain about warp drive, dilithium and other technical things? You wouldn't expect to show a stranger your whole house if they knocked at your door.
Also, why do they never take them to the kitchen and show them how to make French Fries?
As for me, whenever I meet someone new I always start with French Fries. Many years ago I had a new girl-friend. I had the choice of taking her to the Ritz Restaurant in London or to McDonald's. I did not want to risk the Ritz on a first date on account that it can be expensive. So I took her to the local McDonald's.
Turned out she was vegetarian and this immediately ended our relationship. I could not look forward to a lifetime of broccoli. Why is it that vegetarians always want to convert you to their way of thinking?
So next time those Star Trek people meet other races from other galaxies perhaps they should give them some French Fries as a peaceful gesture in the quest to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life
and new civilizations and to boldly go where no man has gone before.
And also ... not to split an infinitive.
...I've never been a Trekkie.
ReplyDeleteSome good programs, you've missed, Tom.
DeleteGod bless.
The first Star Trek series came out when I was a kid, and I've loved it ever since.
ReplyDeleteBlessings, Victor!
Did you ever see them teach aliens from space how to make French Fries? I would have improved the whole series if I wrote for them.
DeleteGod bless, Martha.
Never watched it.
ReplyDeleteYou haven't missed much ... no French Fries!
DeleteGod bless, Bill.
Dearest Victor,
ReplyDeleteProud for being an illiterate in Star Trek and such!
Did you receive my email?
Hugs,
Mariette
Thank you Mariette for your latest review on AMAZON
Deleteof my book "A Daily Walk with Christ". Reviews like yours encourage people to buy; thank you so much.
I've replied to your e-mail. If you've not received it, I'll re-send.
God bless you and Pieter.
Victor, no reply to my email received... But you sure do deserve such review!
DeleteThanx Mariette. I've re-sent my previous e-mail.
DeleteGod bless always.
😳 you better check my email address as it NEVER arrived 😳
DeleteI have checked ... and re-sent again. Your address is exactly as it appears on your e-mail to me. I just pressed respond. I do not want to quote your address here for obvious reasons.
DeleteThanx Mariette. God bless.
Victor, finally I found it in my Junk mail. Guess that's how they treat holyvisions... Just like my Pinterest is being published for saving religious and moral things on there. But they can't discourage me—EVER!
DeleteThanks for your kind words.
not published but punished...
DeleteLet us continue to pray, Mariette. God bless.
Delete💯
DeleteJean-Luc Picard was my favorite captain. We enjoyed all of the different star treks.
ReplyDeleteThe Picard episodes often had a moral in the story line. But never French Fries.
DeleteGod bless, Happyone.
Fellow trekkie here. I love all those characters, plus Data.
ReplyDeletePlease pray for me, having had a thorough psychcognitive test. Lasted 5 hours, instead of 3-4. I learn of the results on Monday.
Praying for you right now, Susan. Trust in God.
DeleteGod bless.
And I thought I was the only one who'd never watched Star Trek. Wouldn't say 'no' to a french fry, however!
ReplyDeleteI think French Fries are a weakness for me. A great invention. Over here we call them chips. With battered fish like cod we then have fish and chips; with salt and vinegar. Captain Picard could conquer the universe with such a recipe.
DeleteGod bless, Mevely.
I'm vegetarian, for health reasons, and i don't expect anyone else to be, unless they want to. You are right, though, Eve probably could have resisted broccoli more easily.
ReplyDeleteIt's the taste. Broccoli has such a strong taste. It's like eating cauliflower but with an attitude. Cauliflower wants to be your friend. Broccoli wants a fight.
DeleteGod bless, Mimi.
I guess I will try again, the last two entries said come back and try again. But for today I must say, "Not every rip to McDonalds worksout well, huh?
ReplyDeleteSherry & jack over here with a working washing machine, but we had to take the clothes off for it to do the job. Let is know when you perfect you new machine. ;-)...
Hello Jack and Sherry. Glad you made it here. I'm still working on perfecting a new washing machine that also dries clothes ... as well as iron them. Just got burnt a little trying it out.
DeleteGod bless always my friends.
We used to watch Star Trek when the children were growing up, they are now adult and still enjoy watching it!
ReplyDeleteSending my good wishes to you.
All the best Jan
There are some really memorable episodes with a good moral..
DeleteGod bless. Jan.
