The dumbing down of America is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media... credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition... a kind of celebration of ignorance

Had some fun building a Mad Libs program with a Star Trek theme.
Very cool.

Changed things up a bit and added a Timer and a Tick() event.

A message of "Generating your story..." now appears in the output window in red.
    LblStoryOutput.ForeColor = Color.FromArgb(200, 50, 50)

After 3 seconds the color changes back to black and displays the story.
    LblStoryOutput.ForeColor = Color.FromArgb(0, 0, 0)

I used a Static variable for the Counter.
    Static Counter As Integer
    Counter += 1

Added some validation so I can use defaults if a value isn't entered.
