With the media overload on the “swine flu epidemic” we can also add Star Trek into the list of affected victims. Mexicans will have to wait to “boldly go where no man, er, person, er, thing, er sentient being has gone before.”

 ET online has the in depth story…full coverage…no stone left unturned…

I guess the Wolverine movie was pushed back in Mexico too.

As you can guess, this is pretty much “non” news.  And really, doesn’t an outbreak of swine flu sound like an old Star Trek episode. Only it would take each victim one by one in different departments of The Enterprise. And the manifestation would be literal–pig snout, snorts, a curly tail sprouts. Captain Kirk would give a desperate plea in the boardroom to figure out who or what is to blame and inevitably it will be an entity who didn’t understand that humans don’t like to be afflicted with pig-related diseases. Either that or a big prank by “Q.”

 Man, with lame posts like this I can’t wait to see a good blockbuster movie.

Sidenote: Anyone else think “Spock” looks like he’s on speed and hasn’t slept for a month?
