Live long and etc.

Hooray, I finally delivered my epic piece on Star Trek to the Times, for publication this Saturday. It's been a labour of love, and I have been immersed in the world of the Enterprise since before Easter. (I had enough material to start my own lecture tour on the socio-political history of Starfleet and spent the last few days before deadline simply honing and honing until it was the correct length.) I saw the new film on Thursday but I'm not sure I'm allowed to talk about it yet, as it's not released until May 8. You can make your face into Spock and a Romulan and get him to say stupid things as if you were one of the telekinetic Ancient Greeks in the season three episode Plato's Stepchildren at this cheese cracker-sponsored website. (These pictures used to follow you around the room with their eyes and speak, but it became so annoying, and you can't switch the speech off, so I have replaced them with static grabs. But make one yourself.)

I think you'll be fine to give your opinion on the new movie. All the major magazines have already published their reviews online. They're all very positive so far. Looks like it will be a great start to the Summer movie season.
I saw the trailer yesterday and wasn't very excited by it, but you look very cool as a Vulcan :-)
Love the images. Richard's reminds me of the guy who won Masterchef this year (but without all the tears) and yours, left unattended, looks around the screen with that mixture of ennui and sarcasm made famous by Sgt Wilson in Dad's Army (John Le Mesurier - comedy god).

those cheese sponsored heads are brilliant and the icing on the (cheese)cake is that the eyes and head follow the cursor around. So ive just asked yours if you were wrong about crank 2 and you are nodding away!
finally ive won an argument - this is the happiest day of my life.
