If Only...

If only we all lived in Star Trekdom.  I'm not saying this because I want to wear the uniforms or the hairdos or the ears or anything like that.

I'm also not saying this because I want to travel where "no man has gone

before", especially not to some of the hokey planets where they landed and got into all kinds of mischief.  And yes I still enjoy watching these silly shows, I just saw the one yesterday that took place during the Great Depression (no, not what we're enduring now) about Edith Keeler where Bones almost changed history as we know it.  Truly gripping!

What I'm talking about is the fact that if any crew member was ill or injured, 

for the most part, all they had to do was run a little dohickey over them and 

they perked right up.  I don't know if it was supposed to repair or replace but whatever it's magic was, those little plastic or cardboard devices they used worked wonders and I'd like to have one right now to cure this cold crap in my head.  That's all.  I know, that was a lengthy, drawn out way to say I don't want to be sick.
