The really sad thing: I recognize most of these characters.

Last night I dreamt I was writing a musical based on the original series episode “Journey to Babel”.
I had managed to rhyme “My father got mad at me” with “Vulcan Science Academy,” then I woke up. Fortunately.
Oh happy day! You’re a first generation Trekkie! And that makes it two!
