    Forty years ago today, "Star Trek" debuted on NBC, and the SF world   
   hasn't been the same since. Whether you love it or hate it, nobody can   
   deny Trek's impact on our society. Here are some activities you might   
   try today.   
      
      
   Ways to Celebrate Star Trek's 40th Birthday   
      
      
   9> Somebody get Gary Seven on the line, it's time to par-tay like it's   
   1969!   
      
   8> Decorate your mom's basement with Enterprise blueprints.   
      
   7> Resubmit your script for the 19th-century pre-prequel pilot about   
   Chekov's aristocratic ancestors,"Tsar Trek."   
      
   6> Have Lieutenant Uhura, Yeoman Rand, Counselor Troi, Lieutenant Yar,   
   Seven of Nine and Lieutenant-Commander Dax compete in a mud-wrestling   
   championship. (Whoo hoo !!!!)   
      
   5> Put Mom on notice that if the party gets a bit crazy she might have   
   to get food-fight fluffernutter sandwich residue out of your Starfleet   
   uniform tomorrow.   
      
   4> Star Trek is 40? Then when the hell were the Eugenic Wars?   
      
   3> Have an Orion slave girl jump out of a warp core.   
      
   2> Throw caution to the wind and have a Jim Kirk/Janice Rand fantasy   
   reenactment in the bedroom.   
      
    and the Number 1 Way to Celebrate Star Trek's 40th Birthday...   
      
   1> Proudly display the new restraining order from Jolene Blalock next   
   to the ones from Jeri Ryan, Terry Farrell, Marina Sirtis and Nichelle   
   Nichols.
