and on a somewhat "Trek"-related note...

I like Bruno Mars's upbeat, Zen-romance song "Just the Way You Are," which advocates finding blissful perfection in the midst of this imperfect moment (vid here). But I just discovered-- after it had received almost 8.75 million hits on YouTube-- Mars's "The Lazy Song," featuring a much-beloved TV actor and movie star in a very uncharacteristic role. It's a shocking transmogrification from Smartest Guy in Starfleet to Neighborhood Dickhead.

Watch and enjoy.
