Star Trek

I loved the movie, a romp and the have a birth at the top was inspired, instant chick flick status, Rebecca was hooked however, Political correctness will be the death of this 50 year old, ok over dramatic but really - was there any need in the totally classic split infinitive of all time.

Space: The final frontier
These are the voyages of the Starship, Enterprise
Its 5 year mission
To explore strange new worlds
To seek out new life and new civilizations
To boldly go where no man has gone before



To replace MAN with PERSON, my goodness it is one of the classic intoructiona of any TV series anywhere, almost historic. They don't fix the grammar but they do make sure we are not sexist. Utterly madness.
On one other point why were Scotties dilithium crystals passed over in favour of a dilithium chamber? I''d love to know JJ, do tell us?

SO...

I am 50, it was my birthday on May 7th 2009 and I have reached that milestone. Now what? Is it 50 and beyond or is it 50 and beyond me? I guess the latter because...

I have more drive at 50 than most of the 20 year olds who work for me.

I know more about computers than anyone in my office yet they all treat me like I listen to a wireless and don't know an wii from a wee or a twit from a tweet.

I also seem to have a capacity for detail over and above almost anyone under 35. This makes me think they are a pain in the arse and makes them think I am an old fart. The fact is they don't seem to care, I do and I am, of course, right.
