I didn't mention this before, but I got a text last night from Anne that tickled my inner nerd's humerus.
"So some guy just called my work asking for James Kirk and a weird kid with straight dark hair and pointy eyebrows. I was the only one who realized that we were being prank called to look for Spock and Kirk from Star Trek."
Not to be a geek, but for someone to not recognize Spock or Kirk is pretty damn illogical. And not just because I'm a nerd who saw the movie(s, if you include Galaxy Quest). I'm saying this because they're kind of pop culture icons of geek idolarity.
And because the movie was a blockbuster, and anyone who reads a magazine or watches TV has probably seen the commercials for it.
