Funny story, I learned recently that Mark Kerr (of The Smashing Machine) is a distant cousin. Somehow it hadn’t occurred to me that another Kerr from the Toledo area could be a relation 😅
So, Kerr is a family name, and my dad refuses to believe that the Deborah Kerr rhymes-with-star pronunciation is real (we say it like Steve Kerr)

“There’s coffee in that nebula” is the Janeway quote that always comes to mind first, but I also like “Fear only exists for one purpose: to be conquered”
Hey Trekkies, I need your favourite quotes from any Trek series or film please. The only thing is they cannot be too long, so no long speeches or monologues please.
Thanks!
Thanks!

I used to joke that if my Toronto counterpart at work ever quit that it’d give me a way out of this place and… um… she quit today 👀
