This absolutely made my year

We went to Chin's noodle house, and I spotted a Star Trek shirt wearer.

Ended up meeting him later, when we went to the IGA. I complimented him on his shirt. Turns out he went the big 2018 Las Vegas Convention. And we spoked back and forth at warp speed.

I said I named our black kitty after Gary Seven's cat in Assignment Earth. He gave me big smile and said "ISIS!" He got to meet the actress that played the human form of Isis.

I told him how I stumped panel of Star Trek experts
In "Lights of Zetar", what was Lt Mira Romaine (Romayne?)'s parents names
He didn't know either, so I told him the names. Now he has a great trivia question for his next convention.

Our meeting had to come to an end, and he gave me the Vulcan "Live Long and Prosper"
I asked him if he knew the response... he looked like eager puppy
I gave salute and said "Peace and Long Life"

We parted ways (because his wife and my mother in law were getting annoyed) Nobody understands Trekkers, except other Trekkers and sci fen.

lunch, family, star trek
