The most recent video by the Feral Historian is an excellent presentation on classical liberalism through the lens of Star Trek; no not the slop that’s been churned out over the last decade.

"Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" was released on this day in 1982. Magnificent sci-fi sequel (based on a story idea by Harve Bennett) from co-writer/director Nicholas Meyer and screenwriter Jack B. Sowards.

Highlights: Unforgettable performance by Ricardo Montalbán; extraordinary James Horner score.

"Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" was a tremendous critical and box office success. While grossing nearly ten times its production budget, it also reignited popularity in the franchise that extended beyond the core "Trek" base.

Even decades later, it's still widely considered to be the best of the "Star Trek" films. This is an enormously entertaining and thrilling adventure.

Today, what we know as Memorial Day had its beginnings in 1868 when it was then known as Decoration Day in order to honor Union Soldiers who had died in the Civil War.
Therefore, it seems apt to recall the words of Joshua L. Chamberlain.

@disparutoo Ahhh yes, ‘Grey eyed Athena,’ just as Homer described her…
