Finally got my record player hooked up! Now I can listen to my Star Trek and Kenny Rogers records!

*EDIT* No, not Kenny Rogers in outer space... the Star Trek records are from '78 and the Kenny Rogers records are from the early 80's. Two seperate categories of listening that I am equally excited to hear once again in all their hissing-and-popping vinyl glory :)

*DOUBLE-EDIT* Come to think of it, Kenny Rogers on Star Trek could have been a good mix! Kinda like seeing Jim Carey in a dramatic roll like he did in "The Majesic"; really good but not at all what you would have expected!

"Mr. Sulu, lock phasers on Kenny Rogers."

[captain-slinky.livejournal.com]

After a number of assignments to smaller Starfleet vessels, in 2264, Lieutenant Junior Grade Sulu was assigned to the U.S.S. Enterprise as the vessel's staff physicist. He excelled in the position but quickly learned that the real excitement took place on the bridge. In 2266, Lieutenant Sulu requested and received a transfer from Sciences to Command section and gladly put on the gold shirt as the Enterprise's Helm Officer. On most starships of that time, the Helm Officer and the Tactical/Weapons Officer were two different individuals, but Sulu's love of weapons raised in him a desire to assume the position of Tactical/Weapons Officer in addition to his helmsman duties. However, if the captain were to ask either of his helmsmen to lock phasers on to Kenny Rogers, it most likely would have been Pavel Chekov he gave those orders to since it was the young Russian ensign that Kirk subsequently took under his wing instead of Sulu. But Sulu held no grudges, especially since it was not Chekov's fault. The two became life-long friends.

Nerd? No thanks... I already have plenty :)
