Hi there! Another newbie speaking here! My name is K. and I come from the homeland of Captain Picard -- what a coming out! I am 30 (actually I'll turn 31 in three weeks) and have been a trekkie since the age of four when I watched the episode where the 1701 crew is turned into stones (please help me, I can't remember the name of that damned show!!!!). I used to be an english teacher but, to be honest, today kids over here are bunches of (pardon my French --LOL!!--) a$$(bleep). Anyway, you get the picture. So I quit and now I am a PA in Luxembourg where the Trek boxsets are real cheap (or is it the wages which are real high?).
Anyway, besides Trek, my other interests are:
- Rock and Roll bands of the 1970s. I play the guitar and I am in permanent awe when I listen to AC/DC (rock me Angus!), Pink Floyd (I think there's a Corporal Clegg on these boards) and Led Zeppelin.
- US and Belgian comics (if you don't know "XIII", you really should try!)
- Mangas (Space Adventure Cobra and Dragonball)
- Kung fu (the martial art, not the Dave Carradine show!)
- Les Nuls (the brits have the Monty Pythons, you have SNL b/w 1975-1990, well we have Les Nuls...)
- The US civilization and culture, that I find quite... fascinating! Actually I majored in that field.
I hope I will spend an enjoyable time with you, my dear fellow and enlightened trekkie colleagues. See you around the galaxy.
Make it so.
