The Voyager Coronary may be the funniest Trek parody I’ve ever read. I first found it posted at The Trek BBS, and I laughed myself silly every chapter. It started out as a little joke, but since then, it’s become a monster that could barely be stopped. Not only was it so popular that the regular readers at the Trek BBS frequently begged Cureboy to keep writing more stories, but it also served for the inspiration of other excellently funny parodies, including Star Trek: Series ?, The Trek Coronary, and The Adventures of Berman and Braga. But although it has been imitated, it has never been matched for its outrageous plots and sheer wackiness.
When I started to put my website together, I contacted Tim and asked him if I could add his hilarious stories to my humor archive. Obviously he said yes, because here it is, for you to enjoy!

Introduction by the Author
The Voyager Coronary began at a very cool Bulletin Board Internet Station called “Trek BBS” which can be found at www.trekbbs.com. The story started off as my way of making fun of those who would come to the Bulletin Board System and incessantly bash my favorite program: Star Trek: Voyager. These were the people who find the silliest, smallest little things to nit-pick about they whine about them for hours and hours and hours. So, I wrote my first chapter of The Voyager Coronary as a spoof/parody of some of those silly nit-pick items. I was hoping that to see all those nit-pick items in a single story would cause those incessant bashers to have a coronary... Hence the name!!
I had a lot of fun writing the first one, so I wrote another. And then I wrote another. I have a blast writing these. And I think there’s a couple people out there who enjoys reading them too... I hope so anyways.
I want to make something very clear, though. I loveStar Trek: Voyager. It is my most favorite thing in this world. My stories may sound like I’m making fun of Star Trek, but I am simply a person who can laugh at the shortcomings of the show instead of turning them into these big crybaby excuses to tear down Star Trek. I have the utmost respect for Star Trek, but I know how to kid around with it... Okay??
