So...

There's a lot of wind outside - what's new?

My husband is working in Berlin today and will return late. Therefore, I'll do some shopping today and see that he'll be comfortable tonight, he had a rather busy week and was rather exhausted yesterday. Poor love.

My own health is improving; after having been on zombie level the whole day yesterday, I feel more alive this morning. Have been on yahoo messenger last night for the first time in months, and talked to some people. It was fun. Though it's extra fun talking to a writer who complains about the errors in other people's texts and then I find all those punctuation errors in her own....

P.S. May I say that I'm displeased that the contents of ENT are infiltrating the Vulcan articles on wikipedia? Because that series just isn't canon for me. Can't help it. I always feel that they've taken away a lot of the Vulcan dignity that I loved most in TOS. Sorry, ENT fans.

100% agreed. Ack. Also bad is seeing ENT "canon" infiltrating the newest TOS novels. I hate that. I really, really do. ENT pretty much recreated Vulcans - restyled their culture/mindset/attitude/everything - and now Trek archivists and novelists, etc. are all trying to fit established Trek characters like Spock and Sarek into the new Vulcan box they've made.

I started reading one of the new TOS novels - and it was actually not bad... until it began to go into how Spock was one of those weird "melder" Vulcans, with telepathic abilities that Vulcan society frowned upon. Um... TOS, TNG, DS9 and VOY never gave any indication that mind melds weren't a normal, accepted part of Vulcan life...

Enterprise never really appealed to me for a number of reasons, but by far the worst, for me, was the way they portrayed the Vulcans. It bugged me. A lot. Rant, rant, rant. :-)

Glad to hear you're starting to feel better. *g*

BLEH. I'd hate to read that! It was easy to ignore the series per se, but this infiltration is hard to ignore. I've seen my fare share of ENT episodes, and it's okay as long as I see it as AU or something, but canon? Sorry, nope. (I better understand the people now who don't even see the trek movies as canon, given that they formed their ideas based on the series alone in the 60's and 70's.)

I also agree. ENT isn't canon for me either. *gag* The mere thought of that series makes me wanna throw something at the next wall. -.-

I also don't like what they did with the Vulcans... it's just... well, it doesn't fit to TOS at all.

So, for me: TOS = canon, ENT = nothing. *lol*

Ew...the very idea of Enterprise being considered canon. Hated it.
