Mr. Scott, shields at full power

System check:

  • Hair - still present but going grey
  • Health - impeccable (recently fended off some type of sickness without actually getting sick - presumably the Norwalk virus)
  • Eye sight - deteriorating, especially in the right eye. Glasses required for everyday vision
  • Weight - should be lower
  • Heart/Blood pressure - inexplicably good when last checked. Resting pulse equivalent to that of an athlete, yet no athletics have been performed in quite some time
  • Memory - good but now getting old enough where it can blamed for something not getting done
  • Grump level - increasing, sayings like "kids these days" and "back in my day" are becoming inevitable, modern pop music becoming increasingly annoying
  • Taste buds - still can't handle fish, broccoli, and other healthy yet poor tasting foods

Diagnostic complete: all systems appear to be functioning at normal capacity. Proceeding with caution out of the 20s...
