she ties up Ensign Kim and beats Tuvok with a riding crop. That was rather interesting. A fan made this. He sculpted out of an X-Men figure, repainted it-- complete with a whip, cat-o'-nine-tails, handcuffs. Man: Another fan wrote a Klingon sex manual. "There's no such thing as safe sex in Klingon, how to tell if your daughter is seeing a Klingon, meeting your Klingon, initiating the mating ritual." Worf and I went up, and I pushed him, he pushed me back. We started wrestling. And it's understood that that is part of the Klingon culture. The female pushing a man or slapping a man is considered like, "Hey, I want to go out with you. I find you attractive." Uh! I don't have it with me anymore-- I threw it away-- but they had made from latex a Klingon condom. It was ridged. It had like big ridges and stuff. There are now thousands of K/S zines out there. It's way too late to stop it. My name is Daryl Frazetti, this is Bones, and we've gone to about a dozen Star Trek conventions together. I do that with him mainly because he enters the costume contests, and it's something fun for both of us to do together. We have a lot of fun doing it with the people we meet. He's got his little med kit right here--his props. this is the original Trek scrub top, and this is the science insignia and his DeForest Kelley pin that he always wears for luck. We're probably bigger classic Trek fans than any of the other shows, and DeForest Kelley happens to be our favorite actor. He will sit there and watch television. Some cats will sit there and watch television. Some of them actually even respond to the phasers or some of the ships going by on the screen, as well. We're here for this convention, and we're old friends who met because of Star Trek, and we're having a 13-year reunion. First time we've been together-- the 4 of us-- in 13 years. We're so divergent in personality, in backgrounds, in our family styles and everything, and yet, we have this common thread of Star Trek, which keeps us together. Remember when-- the first convention we went to, we'd forgotten what it was like. And we were at the convention, and we were all accepted. And when we left and we went back home, we had to act normal again. [Laughter] I think if there's one thing in this world that I will take to my grave with me forever is the fans. They are so loving, and they are so warm, and they are so tender, and if you go someplace, like into a convention, and you don't have any friends there, you don't know anybody there, you really do because they're all thinking-- somewhere along the line, they're thinking like you are. My family thinks I'm the odd one of the family. They think I'm totally weird, but I found this club, and I found out I'm not the only one, so I guess I'm not so weird after all. It's really great to go to a convention, and it's like a family reunion. My wife is here, and she and I met, actually, in a Star Trek club. I know a lot of people from around the state that I would have never met unless I joined this club. So it's meeting people. It's about people. What we do is we usually set up a recruiting table so that we can get new members to join the organization. Recruitment happens every waking moment. Every time you see one of us either in uniform or out on the street, if our mouth is open and breath comes forth, we're recruiting.
