Ah bones. I loved that guy. he represented all that was human.
You had Spock on one side.
Bones on the other.
and Kirk in the middle.
I wonder who I want to be? If I had to choose.
Kirk is the guy everything happens too and the guy who make the decisions.
Spock is logic without emotion. Just truth, no lying, no pussy-footing, no buffers, pure reality unfiltered.
Bones is all emotion and gut. He shoots from the hip and gets passionate about it. "Goddammit Jim! I'm a doctor!" and Bones has a serious dislike for Spock. If it was logical Spock would have a dislike for Bones and that drives Bones crazy.
I always thought I wanted to be Spock and tried. He was always so collected, controlled and truthful. More recently I fought that and wanted to be Bones, passionate, sensitive and intuitive. I think I never really tried to be Kirk, all action, leadership and Will.
Hamlet had a problem getting into Kirk's shoes too. Hmmm...
Today's Song of the Day is "Concerto a 4 RV 151 "Alle rustica" in G major: 2. Adagio" performed by Herbert Von Karajan & The Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, composed by Antonio Vivaldi in 1729.
Crazy Fact: Antonio Vivaldi once boasted that he could compose a concerto faster than a copyist could ready the individual parts for the players in the orchestra.

what?!
logic without emotion isn't pure unfiltered reality!
neither bones nor spock had a monopoly on truth. they were opposites that found a namby-pamby marriage in kirk.
Out-of-Context Trek dialogue that I find alarming:
Spock: I love you, Jim.
Kirk: I am Kirok!
Random Trek fact that I find slightly alarming:
Trekker fan fiction was one of the first postings of fan fiction on the internet. A lot of it involved pornographic storylines involving Kirk and Spock. And Kirk and McCoy and Spock. And Kirk and INSERT APPROPRIATE NAME HERE and Spock. And Spock and Spock (Insert obscure Vulcan Pon-far autofellatio reference here). 'Bones' indeed. Go figure.
