_WHEEE!!!_

Time tripping is a hoot!

Just ask **Aeserion**. :dubious:

Oh, and btw, **vivavoom** , I rewrite scense\* as I see fit. [insert smily with tongue sticking out, thumbs in ears , wth hands making moose antler gestures at you]

\*scenes… I was too lazy to correct it there. Too much typing. So I just decided to do it as a footnote type of thingy.

I was just watching (a month or so ago) the _Voyager_ episode about the subspace tunnel people, “Mall Rats” was it? Remember? Tuvok had lost his memory because of the weapon used against him? Wait, that was a differnt episode, wasn’t it? The clocked octopi aliens…

Anyways, the joke in it about how did the guy survive in the desert with only a calendar in his possesion? Neelix said, “He ate the dates.”

Later, after Tuvok had recovered and wasn’t the little kid who really like Neelix anymore, he tells Neelix, “Sundaes.”

Neeli:, “Huh?”

Tuvok: “It occurs to me, he could have also eaten the sundaes.”

Neelix (smiling): “That’s not very logical, is it, Mr. Vulcan?”

Tuvok: :dubious:

Just musing. Never mind me. Nothing to see here. Move along.

Anyone else remember _Dark Crystal_\*?

Muppet LOTR, basically.

As the male and female leads are plummeting down (to their death? hopefully) from off of some cliff or something, the girl muppet grabs the boy muppet and opens her wings and they alight softly on the ground.

Boy muppet: “You have wings?!?”

Girl muppet: “Of course, silly. I’m a girl.”

Are you caught up yet, **Aes**?

\<nitpick\>  
Actually, it’s:

Jen: “Wings?! I don’t have wings!”  
Kira: “Of course not. You’re a boy.”  
\</nitpick\>  
Calling them muppets really doesn’t do them justice, BTW.

Yes, I’m a _Dark Crystal_ fan. I had video disk and VHS versions, and it’s currently the highlight of my DVD collection (at least unless/until _The Last Unicorn_ comes out on DVD).

There once was a **Boy** with **No Clue**  
Whose coding came out all askew.  
He sometimes proclaimed  
that the Drink should be blamed  
But he screwed up without drinking, too\*.

\*since I don’t actually know **NCB** drinking habits, I can’t swear to this one, but at least it rhymes.

That’s what counts.

So, what about this not posting at night? Are you like a vampire and when it’s dark you go out and play with the other Living Dead instead of your SD pals? Is kn(\*)ckers a Secret Identity and after work you spend all your time Fighting Crime and doing Super Hero Stuff?

**Carni** , honey, you know I can’t reveal my secret identity - that breaks ALL the rules of Superherodom. Oh, wait, if **Kn\*ckers** is my secret identity, I guess I’ve already revealed it. Darn.

Per your query, here’s my typical evening to-do list:

1. Go home from work
2. Brood about how much job sucks
3. Eat dinner
4. Watch some kind of crap on TV, and/or engage in one of my many hobbies (such as crime-fighting, skydiving, bellydancing, or attending wild parties at the Playboy Mansion\*).
5. Sleep  
Totally wild, I know. So you can see that I’m FAR to busy to post in the evening. Which is a lie. If I had the 'net at home, you can bet I’d be here all the time. But alas, I must do without.

Not for the next two or three years, no… including the past two episodes, I’ve seen maybe six episodes of Enterprise. :mad:

A pox on UPN’s house! A pox!
