So it began like this. I was on my way to the 37th Star Trek convention when I got a flat tire in my styling Geo Metro. It was then I had to come up with a plan quick or I would miss the most important convention of my life at that time. So I did some quick calculations and the quickest solution to get to the Star Trek convention by 1.2 percent with a margin of error of .5 percent I was to quickly use my portable ham radio attached to my Geo Metro to call a cab. You should have seen that beautiful ham radio sticking on top of my car making my clearance 14 feet high. Any way I called the cab and low and behold I had to share it with this young looking lady. Her name was Rebecca Peterson. I stared at her while she occationaly glanced at me. While sharing the cab I like any other EMC2 member figured she was heading to the same place I was so I uddered my first words to Rebecca "Which captain of the Enterprise was best?" I soon found out that she had no idea what the Enterprise was, but that didn't matter because it was the first response from the opposite gender that was kind. I'm not sure if it was the glasses, the tape that held the glasses together, the tie, or one of my many pens, but Becca was love struck. I quickly calculated my chances with Rebecca. The chances were slim but they had beat any other chances I had previously by 34% with a margin of error of 3 %.I had to hold off becoming president of EMC2. This of course was more important than the most important thing in my entire life. So I immediatly began "The Plan." The plan was almost full proof according to my calculations. The only thing it required was someone to actually talk back to me. The rest is history and now I'm not a complete nerd but I am happily married with three kids. EMC2 never saw me as president but now I have realized that it was a dream that wasn't meant to be as becoming a Family Man was my true destiny.

Not only is this post halarious!!! But it is so sweet, you talk so endearly of Rebecca, and that is so thoughtful! I can tell you still feel like you got quite the gal!
And he did, Rachel. And he did.
First of all, we at EMC2 are full of mixed feelings. Many felt that you could have lead us beyond the Klingon heaven of Stovelcore. On the other hand you are the first member to ever talk with a girl for more than 30 seconds.
You have inspired me. If our great leader can be married, perhaps I could have a girlfriend. Yes!
