well, the underlining WOULD have been mine, if I hadn’t thoroughly screwed up the coding. I’m going to go wallow in shame and self-hatred, now. ---

See, I saw “Klingon” and “Wolfe” and my brain turned it into “Worf.” So I was imagining WORF can-canning. Move over, Nicole Kidman, there’s a new kid on the _Moulin_. ---

Limerick time (You getting sick of them yet? Only two more after this one). Ensign Travis was born on a freighter Which was captained and owned by his pater He asks them each week If it’s his turn to speak But the writers respond to him “later” Speaking of limericks, I forgot to mention before, very nice Kn\*ckers. Not only good rhymes, good meter (just as important as the rhyme, but often forgotten). ---

A Denebulan slime devil walks into a bar, the second one ducks! A Klingon walks into a bar, the barkeeper says “Why the Long face?” The Klingon kills him. A Romulan walks into a bar and takes out a 12 inch Praetor… ---
