Default Fortieth Anniversary Event

If someone else has already brought this up, I'm sorry for the repetition.

So are we going to have a party of some sort for the big event? I realize that the fortieth isn't quite as happy as anniversaries in the past. I mean, twenty was NextGen, twenty-five was STVI, thirty was STVIII and Voyager, thirty-five was... um, Enterprise?

I know that we can't expect a slew of new fivers or anything, but maybe we could use this thread to relate some of our most meaningful Trek memories, share the lamest Trek jokes we know (for some real groaners go over to Nitcentral), or whatever.

I'll start off with a Jim Wright quote from Delta Blues regarding a classic Janeway line. This may not be accurate word-for-word, but you get the gist:

Janeway: It's not exactly Shakespeare, but it gets the point across.
Jim Wright: I don't know about you, but this sent me into a ten-minute guffaw. This could be the Unofficial Star Trek Mission Statement.
