I have half a mind to grape that post.  
But I will refrain. Willpower is what separates me from the trolls.

That, and the fact that I don’t live under a bridge and threaten billy goats.

Apparently there’s a catwalk under each nacelle…they’re concentrating all their personell in one catwalk…putting all their eggs in one basket:rolleyes: .

Hi, NCB and all…I really wish I could have been here today, but I was hereinstead (turn the sound down if you’re gonna click on it–trust me); playing lots of Mr. Lucky Fortune Cookie and The Price is Right Cliffhangers; enjoying Mom’s birthday free buffet with her; and then watching her be given two MORE free buffets out of the blue because she was the casino mystery winner, and do you think _I_ ever get chosen for such honors? Nooooooo!  
[sarcasm off]

Uhhh…Well, **Kn\*ckers** , I could post much scarier links than I already have. I’ve been holding back! 😉

Hey, did we mention that Solkar was mentioned in this episode? He was also mentioned in ST3: TSFS, as Sarek’s grandfather (“child of Skon, child of Solkar”). Trivia is my specialty.

Not that I’m not grateful. And I’m getting birthday buffets of my own there in a few months. You wanna come along and help me eat them?

Solkar was mentioned? In what context? Don’t tell me I was right in predicting T’Pol is Spock’s great-aunt or something.

BERMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!

A female crewmember asks Archer for help with a crossword; the answer is a six-letter word for the first Vulcan ambassador (I think). And Archer answers, “Solkar.”

Oh, and you get to see Chef.

So diplomacy is a family tradition? Why didn’t Sarek want Spock to follow in his footsteps instead of going to the Vulcan Science Academy then? :dubious:

Hey, **Kn\*ckers** …

You want a weird link? Check out this pic of Malcolm Reed looking like he’s just about to admit to gastric distress:

Yes, that was yet another NCB-style non-sequitur!
