- watching The Cage on my parent's SelectaVision with G
- seeing each of the movies during their original theatrical run (except the first... which is still kind of impressive when you think my parents decided to take a seven year old to see The Wrath of Kahn)
- Watching TNG as original airings, but even moreso as reruns on FOX 13 after The Arsenio Hall Show
- And Deep Space Nine
DS9 was the Star Trek high point for me. It had all the familiar trappings of Star Trek, but the sense of permanence, the genuine lasting struggles,... all served to set it apart, and above all other Treks. I guess that makes me a Niner.

What is interesting is that for some reason I always associate Star Trek with watching it at your house. I do remember going on to see "the quest for peace" (wasn't that the one with the whales?) with you at the Carillon Square theaters. But mostly, I just always think of the butt-heads we watched and laughed about.
True story.
The "butt-heads" were from The Cage. I should actually revisit that episode, because while I remember joking about the butt-heads, I also recall some pretty vivid imagery(the young/old lady? and the burn victim who can only communicate by saying yes or no), but can't really remember the story/plot.
Brother Brigham and I were actually talking about Carillon Square theaters just the other day (he and slept out for Batman Returns tickets there back in the day).
good times
