Are all North Americans obsessed with 'Star Trek' or are you all just showing your ages?

It may be a little bit of both actually.I don't feel that I am obsessed with Star Trek.I never gave it much thought until I saw it mentioned on this board. Just fun remembering the show. Embarassed

Dear biffinbridge,
Both, I fear - though I can't speak for the Canadian and Mexican North Americans.
Regards,
John

Nor, johnslat, are you authorised to speak for North Americans from St Pierre and Miquelon !

When I was a wee lad I had the hots for Lt. Uhura. In my old age I've traded her in for Halle Berry. She can klingon to me any time.

Dear scot47,
Not only am I not authorized to speak for them, I don't even know where they are. But then, we Yankee gringo North Americans are notoriously ignorant of geography ( Hmmm - let's see; there are the USA and everywhere else, all those foreign places ).
Regards,
John

Two islands off the coast of Canada. Stil French and part of the EU, but geographically in North America. In one of the 18th century wars - forget which one- King George got Canada, but was kind enough to leave the Frenchies a little bit so they could go fishing for cod.

Next we will be seeing an inquiry :" How can I get a job in St Pierre and Miquelon ?" and "Will I like it there ?"

Dear scot47,
Canada? Where's Canada. Is that abroad?
