Star Trek Games

    This is a good game to play during the opening music and credits of ST:TNG - everybody in the room has to duck to avoid getting hit by the Enterprise heading towards them on the TV screen. It's great fun (for a sad person like me!) and when, towards the end of the credits, the ship moves away into distant space, you have to pretend you're standing on top of it and trying not to fall off (like on a surf board).

    Or else, taking a quote from Data and trying to work it into a normal conversation the next day and seeing if people find it strange.

    Does anybody else do stuff like this?

    I played that back in times long gone. Many many many years ago long before the time of DS9 VOY or ENT.... It was TNG season1/2 and i was oh so very young but yes i do remember that (except for me instead of surfing the enterpise at the end i think i pretended that it hit me in the back of the head.) I cant even remember what age i was... Do any of you remember what year TNG came out on TV in eurpe?

    When I was in primary school I used to play 'star trek' with the micromachines and 'battlestar Galactica' (run around pretending to be in a viper incase ya didn know ;) ) So ducking to avoid the Enterprise seems normal to me :D

    Has anybody ever tried Klingon Cooking? You have to buy the book to find out what it's like.:( I'd imagine it's lots of strong, meaty dishes - steaks, kangaroo meat and so on (if it uses real-life (TM) ingredients). Yum!
