Does “let’s get the hell out of here” (at the end of “City on the Edge of Forever”) count as a swear? Pickin’ on the 'plant. Poor 'plant. Pile on 'plant. ☹ Whoopi “Guinan” Goldberg’s production company is called One Ho Productions. ---

**NCB** : I think Escaltor would be a great name for a giant, city-crushing robot. “I AM ESCALTOR! BOW DOWN BEFORE ME, PUNY HUMANS!” _stomp,stomp,stomp_ I’m really glad Bones wasn’t an Escaltor. —this has been “Fun with Typos.” We now return you to your regularly scheduled whatever-this-is.— ---

Would you try a new Snapple™ flavor from our sponsors?” [/TV news reporter] Always picking on the spell bad guy, aren’t we now, hmmm?

Besides, the “i” and the “a” are so close together on my keybard\*. It’s a mere matter of inches. \*keybard - an infinite number of monkeys pounding on a typewriter making revisions to Shakespear plays that always seem to involve bananas and the humiliation of Anna Nichole in sexual situations that are just off putting, to say the least. Or, just another typo. ---

Stupid timeouts…grrrrrr…trying again How about an episode where Enterprise is receiving an ambassador, and it is played by a monkey, and they spend the whole episode pampering him and trying to communicate, but can’t, then at the end of the episode we find out it was just the Ambassador’s pet, and it was all a test. This makes Reed so angry, he throws his feces at the Ambassador, leading to General Order 4: Do NOT Throw Feces At Ambassadors. ---

I like it, **Tars** , but only if we can have a city-crushing robot and nudity in there, somewhere. Preferably not in the same scene. **NCB** : Actually, I was trying to come up with a way of saying “whirr, whirr, whirr”, but I couldn’t come up with the right onamatopoeiac word. I kept thinking “buzz” was pretty close, but I didn’t want to give the impression that Escaltor was a giant BEE robot. So in the end, I gave up. I’ll remember _whirr_ for next time. ---

How about the giant city crushing robot is carrying a starkers Hoshi in his fist? He climbs on top of a building and shuttle pods shoot at him. ---

What a dirty trick…I clicked on that link and got all konfoozed. The professor knows not graphs or visuals. The professor knows only words n’ stuff like that. The professor responds slowly due to increasing number of error messages, 504 connection time outs and similar crap. ---
