Star Trek Resolutions
In Star Trek Nemesis Picard tells Shinzon, “There is something that has never been nurtured. The potential to make yourself a better man and that is what it means to be human. To make yourself better than you are.” That is also what new year’s resolutions are all about, self improvement. Use these Star Trek characters’ new year’s resolutions as a guide to making your own.
James T. Kirk: I will ask that girl out on a date.
Uhura: I will be a better communicator.
Pavel Chekov: I will learn more about my heritage.
Jean-Luc Picard: I will make it so!
Worf: I will be more aggressive.
Geordi La Forge: I will see the possibilities.
Deanna Troi: I will indulge in what I enjoy (dark chocolate) without guilt.
Lwaxana Troi: I will not change outfits seven times…and then back into the first one.
Reginald Barclay: I will favor my real life over my virtual one.
Ad’har Ru’afo: I will not dwell on my reflection in the mirror. Wrinkles add character.
Benjamin Sisko: I will find time to play.
Jadzia Dax: I will accept change.
Elim Garak: I will strive to keep my mouth shut.
Quark: I will better my financial situation.
Odo: I will be true to myself no matter what I am.
Borg Queen: I will spend more time with my collective.
Kathryn Janeway: I will cut back on caffeine.
B’Elanna Torres: I will be unapologetic about my actions.
Tuvok: I will continue to meditate and strive for inner peace.
Tom Paris: I will be more responsible.
Harry Kim: I will try not to be so gullible.
The Doctor: I will exceed my original programming.
Neelix: I will eat better.
Seven of Nine: Resolutions are futile

opps didnt read it right sorry!!!

Happy New Year Everybody!!!!
The cbs site got some clips on Karl Urban’s western miniseries Comanche Moon

Happy New Year!!
Happy New Year from Ottawa!
Visit Second Life, join United Federation Starfleet, Live the Dream!
Happy New Year
Risk is our business!
Happy new year, fellow Trek fans!
One thing since 2000 that we haven’t been able to do any more as fans — that is, if you ever did — is the old “stardate” way of writing dates because this “zero” decade makes it awkward. I used to do it on papers in junior high (7803.23, for instance) and left teachers scratching their heads. So for old time’s sake, happy 0801.01!
Re: #1 — Please keep the political out of these comments, unless you want details on why supporting Ron Paul is utterly misguided, and why Ron Paul does not and would not reflect Star Trek ideals. Would you like to hear my theory on why the 23rd century United Earth and the United Federation of Planets are socialist institutions? I will spare you that because this is not the forum for such political debate, it is for sharing our mutual love of Star Trek. So please do the same.
Live long and prosper and have a great 2008!
All prepare for a great year!
Lose a couple pounds…of cash to Ron Paul in ‘08
Vote Pedro
To try to look forward to the new Trek film and withhold any judgment on it until I actually see it! Despite my lack of enthusiasm over JJ Abrams’ previous work, there are many promising elements to this new film. Here’s hoping they strive first and foremost to make an entertaining movie (I don’t care if it adheres 100 percent to canon; No Trek ever has)! And I will look forward to it! Live Long and Prosper in 2008!
RE: #20 - We use stardates at UF Starfleet in Second Life. The format we use is..
YYMMDD.HHMM
Therefore right this moment is 080101.1410
spock: to…live long and prosper
dumb maybe… but I couldn’t resist
My primary resolution is to take over the universe and become Emperor.
My secondary resolution is to lose 10 pounds.
If neither of those pan out, I’d settle for making sure there is a roll of toilet paper by the toilet before I start doing my business.
Captain Hackett,
Back at ya! Happy New Year from Canada’s capital!
Canada has a captial?!? Hahaha just kidding. Happy New Year’s from Trip’s home state!
I resolve to see a new Star Trek movie this year!
re:#20
I think it has been mentioned a few times in star trek, that money does not exist in the future. I think that it would be an excellent idea to go into further detail on how that would work, and how that change came to be.
Happy New Year everyone
i hope the Trek movie resolution is to eliminate this “first: carryover from other web boards
if you must do it to honor those sites shouldn’t it be the more trekkien
#1?
Actually voting for someone you appreciate is a great resolution for 2008..I mean , what are you going to do just over a month before the star trek movie hits theaters? why ..Vote for Ron Paul.. Happiest of new years to everyone!

I’m voting for Ron Paul George and Ringo.
PS…SPOILER AHEAD
…….The walrus was Paul.
To vote for, to donate money to, and to go door to door supporting Dr. Ronald Ernest Paul!
BTW, the Borg is far more socialist/Communist than the Federation. No individuality, no choices, no freedom. The Federation is all about exploration and personal responsibility.
How about the networks make a resolution to stop cutting the TOS episodes and show them in there full length.
I’ll try to make a resolution to accept the new film for what it is and not see that is is truly a comparison to a cover band. As my comment in another posting, As a Led Zeppelin fan I would be shocked if the concert was performed by a tribute band and not the actual surviving members.
I resolve to try to accept the new Star Trek film.
My significant other has an exercise plan for us. My resolution is to cooperate. sigh. :)
Happy New Year!
A tall ship and a star to steer her by.
To help Stanky find his true inner Trek’08 loving self.
And to Never, ever vote for….___________.
To help Xai come to grips with reality :)
NO KILL I……..
I resolve to …..
1. Drop 80 lbs
2. Start a career in Graphic Arts
3. Fix my Trans Am
4. See the new Trek movie on opening night
5. Become the all powerful master of Time, Space, and demention
To get better sleep patterns, and watch all of TOS before the movie.
My resolution is to not vote for anyone in ‘08, as there is not a single candidate I would consider giving my vote to.
And to see Trek opening day, and I hope it’s better than the last opening day I went to, a 10:00 pm showing of The Simpsons Movie where I had to sit in the front row in the very middle. Worst seat I’ve ever had for a movie.
My resolution is to not vote for anyone in ‘08. I don’t like any of the candidates. And to see Trek on opening day.
20. DesiluTrek - January 1, 2008
Please rewatch the last ten minutes of ST TOS “the Omega Glory”.
I think you will see that even Kirk had a DEEP appreciation for freedom and the American flag. As for socialism, Yes we are also still steeped in a war with the ‘Yangs and Comms’.
You may also want to note that Mexico is going ‘Borg’ these days.
Follow that debate here…
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1945448/posts
Live long and prosper in ‘08 all!
i will limit my trekmovie visits to one a day. and cut down on the meth a bit.
#17 Captain Hackett and #28 What is it with you?
Happy New Years from Toronto!
And as for #29 Noleuser’s “Canada has a capital?”
Sure it does…….you see the ‘C’, don’t you? :)
We let canucks in here?
Yes, Xai, I know it can be intimidating……but, take a deep breath and rise to the occasion….you know, like when you’re matched up in tennis with a better player? :)
Gawd, I love teasing you guys……….it’s TOO easy!!
Whatever you need to believe to get through the long cold night, bud. Now we know the origin to the actual Harry Ballz.
Wilsons or Spaulding?
Not to call Ant a -c-u-x-x when he censors my posts.
Tennis balls are more fuzzy than “harry”….
As to the part of my anatomy you’re referring to, it’s neither Wilsons or Spaulding……….let’s just go with “the boys” :)
How about a subtle clue as to the origin of “Xai”?
I resolve to take “Star Trek” less seriously in 2008 than I did in 2007. I further resolve to care less about canon and continuity.
thank you all for your compliments on the site and I hope you all had a good new year
RE: politics
I have made it clear I want no politics on this site. I fully support and encourage you all to vote. But I really do not want to hear who you voted for and especially campaigning. 2008 is a big election year and there are mllions of sites to discuss it. So starting now anyone who goes into political debate in any thread that is not about politics will be banned for a week. And ‘he started it’ is not an excuse.
This site is about Star Trek.
My resolutions:
eat more veggies and bring you all more news and info about your favorite franchise
I really don’t agree with the discussion of politics on this site.
I already lost 40lbs, so I guess maybe find myself someone new, continue with my plans of an EMT/Paramedic career and eagerly await Star Trek in December.
Oh, and to remain spoiler free. Please JJ, keep up the secrecy.
Ah, and to get involved in a fan production, hey, one can dream right?
#1…I’m with you: Ron Paul & Star Trek XI in 2008!
OK what part of no politics did you not understand
Sanchez has been banned for a week
those who keep this going will be banned and their posts deleted…no warnings. The no politics rule has been in place a long time and I will not have this site spammed or turned into a debate. I cannot make myself clearer on this.
This site is not for or against any candidate and please vote….but discuss your politics somewhere else.
I resolve to be a little less kind and a little less emotional
I resolve to drink less
I resolve to turn on the drinking fountain before I put my face in it
I resolve to stop waking up in New Orleans hotel rooms laying next to dead hookers……………once was more than enough! :)
#54 Harry Ballz and the “boys”
Xai was the name of a sports shoe I saw in a catalog. It had a more verbal zing than “Ralph” or “Moe”
To find inner peace, hope for some ‘outer’ peace, and get into, and through, college. Oh, yeah, and to have a great year.
Happy new year, minna-san! (Everyone….again)
Dif tor heh smusma,
Q
Gee this place is so fun.;) I resolve to find those moments to make myself better! Thanks Anthony for the great work on this fun and cool site!
Trekkin into 2008!
Mine is to just sit back and enjoy how good ‘n’ sharp ‘n’ dazzling the remastered space shots look in HD, and stop nitpicking them to death.
#57 MiamiTrek “continue with my plans of an EMT/Paramedic career”
MiamiTrek, congrats on your chosen career path…that is one stressful job you’ve selected for yourself! Good luck with that!!
Thanks Harry Ballz, it certainly is. But it sure beats being stuck in a corporate job as I have been for the past 10 years. Talk about infinite boredom and not making one bit of difference in the world around me.
I am extremely excited about it.
Hey, a new spin on IDIC……Infinite Boredom in Infinite Combinations! Yup, that’s the white-collar sector for ya!
^ROFLMAO…
Holy crap, I think I snorted when I read that!
Roberto, have a resolution?
Roberto can’t answer a question he hasn’t read……you see his resolution was to stop reading our postings as they were giving him migraines! :)
I am resolving to take my schooling more seriously and to cut back on the drinking, Happy New Years everyone!
Too many resolutions to list here.
I wish a happy + healthy new year to everyone.
Hmmmmm….when it comes to the resolution of what to watch on T.V. ….why, there must be 1080 of them!! Egads!!
Vulcanista’s resolutions:
1. Have fun.
2. Have even more fun.
3. Try to squeeze in some work in between 1&2.
Happy 2008!
Peace. Live long and prosper.

Unkown Extra: I will not wear a red shirt.
Q: I’ll do whatever the hell I want!
And as a followup to my previous post, here’s a way to get started having more fun in ‘08:

Happy 2008!
Peace. Live long and prosper.

Just got the video to work… I just LOVE ME some Big Bad Voodoo Daddy!
Thanks, Anthony! Great little New Year’s treat!
Peace. Live long and prosper.

To finish my Military recruitment process (and hopefully get in) and then become the best killer I can humanly be over time and help stick it to the Taliban.
This is great…

I’m a tad late to this party (another resolution flushed) but happy new year everyone.
I resolve to be a better husband, eat fewer foods that will clog my arteries when I remember, watch more Star Trek, and vote. Hopefully ‘08 will be a better year for all, even the Ferengi.
Great vid Spockboy! Sure makes me miss two of those STAR TREK greats. Fun memories and fun stuff.
I don’t make resolutions, because most of the time we don’t keep them. Instead of being disappointed again next year and setting the same reslutions year after year, my husband and I set absolute goals, build a plan by which to meet them, and let God take care of the rest.
Hmmm… I don’t like resolutions, cause I don’t keep them for long anyways. Let’s call them “wishes” shall we?
So… work less, live more! The rest will come on its own!
Happy New Year from another fellow Canuck! (do I smell an invasion coming? ;-)
#9 Zoom-
Now THAT’S funny!!!!
I resolve to finally build my John Long Phaser kit.
(I still need a can of Zynolite dark gray primer though… and a life.)
Resolve to see past the differences in the new Trek Movie.
Only then will we get the true Star Trek experience the we hope for.
No other solution is available for the purist Trek fan anyhow.
Perhaps we will be surprised at what J.J. & Co. has i store for us all.
Anyhow there will be the promise of sequels if the movie is a big hit.
Unless we all see this new movie many times we may not have options.
Left for us in the Trek universe. Perhaps Cawley can make a diifference
in 2008.
First things first, everyone. Let’s all get onboard with that resolution!
Mary Jay,
just remember, a resolution is like having a goal and, as we all know, a goal is simply a dream with a deadline to it! Maybe that helps a bit from one Canuck to another! I’m in Toronto, where are you?
Spockboy, thanks for the link to the old MCI commercial. The funniest commercial I’ve ever seen.
#87 Harry:
I’m from Quebec.
I like your definition of a resolution! ;-)
I believe the question is “What is your Star Trek resolution?”
Mine is 1080i
Mine’s 1080p……
Errrr, sorry………….I didn’t mean to “p” on your “i”………….. :)
Mine is NOT to rip on Englishman Simon Pegg being given the ‘Scotty’ role anymore…as I get the distinct feeling that there will be plenty of other as worrysome elements in this reboot to get steamed about…
Simon Pegg may prove to be the best thing in it! ;)
My New Year resolutions are:
1) Some surprise blogs from the folks associated with the new Star Trek movie
2) Buy the second season of Re-mastered TOS HD DVD
3) Watch the new ST movie. If it is great beyond my wildest dream, then I will watch it at least twice times.
4) Lose more weight.
5) My Habs (Montreal Canadiens) win their 25th Stanley Cup. I am sorry, Harry Ballz! :D
Montreal Canadiens……..hmm…..no…….oh, wait…..yes, I’ve heard of THEM! :)
