The merchandise opportunities for classic shows like
Star Trek has been outlandish, to say the very least.
You can show your financial love for
Star Trek by buying
Star Trek toys,
Star Trek apparel,
Star Trek cell phones,
Star Trek Pez dispensers,

I don't know what is with all the
Star Trek-related posts
from me today. Maybe it's on my radar because I watched
First Contact the other night (that Borg chick
