I snapped this Polaroid circa 2005. The guy was singing a song about Star Trek to entice people to bid on the painting of Uhura. He wanted $100. A totally logical business strategy. Having just seen the new Star Trek film, I wish I would’ve bought that painting. Is it possible I am related to Captain Christopher Pike? Probably not, considering he is a fictional character from the future. But, what if I named a son Christopher? Nah, that’s just what J.J. Abrams would expect me to do. I’m not your deus ex machina, J.J.
