Star Trek: The Motion Picture

There's going to be a 3 CD deluxe edition of what is probably my all-time favorite film score, Jerry Goldsmith's masterpiece, Star Trek: The Motion Picture.

Here's an article I wrote about it: http://www.examiner.com/article/lalaland-records-to-release-expanded-star-trek-the-motion-picture-soundtrack

And here is a video I did in honor of it. It's a recording of the regrettable lyrics for Ilia's Theme, the Love Theme from Star Trek: The Motion Picture.

Connections


I ducked into the empty donut shop.
“Two double chocolates,” I said, slipping off my wet coat. “And two coffees. Black.”
From behind the counter, she smiled.
“Two?” she asked. “Who’s the second one for?”
I slid onto my favorite stool.
“You.”


I saw this challenge to create a 42 word short story about the meaning of life, and this is what I came up with. Oh, and, by the way, I won the challenge.
