I didn’t want to believe your spoiler, **Tars** , but I went looking, and, yep, there they are: [insane zombie-like Vulcans](http://www.startrek.com/startrek/view/series/ENT/episode/2329.html). When they announced the military strike force being added to the crew, I was afraid the producers were trying to turn this into _Space: Above and Beyond._ Obviously, they’re not. They’re turning it into a weird cross between _Doctor Who_ and _Red Dwarf._ I’m still planning to tune in for the season-three premiere, but I suspect I’m going to have to find a much more consistent pot dealer in order to have any hope of sticking with the show… ---

Reading **NCB** ’s link I can see Enterprise is copying _the same damn plots from other shows_. Mutating into primal lifeforms? Bad TNG eppy anyone? Enterprise needs to hire writers, not plagiarists. I should go Panda-_Fu_ on there asses. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Wearia \* > \*\*Reading **NCB** ’s link I can see Enterprise is copying _the same damn plots from other shows_. \*\* Yeah, that’s why I put the link in the dubious face. Eps 2, 3, 5, & 6 look like redressed TNG and VOY plots. Could still be good, tho. Though i am skeptical, I’m eagerly awaiting the season. Oh, the dichotomy of being a Trekker! It’s my evil side that allows me to make command decisions. Miserable man that I am! Who will save me from this body undergoing death? ---

Trip looks like he’s covered in blue marshmallow Peeps. Maybe that’s why scrubbing the plasma conduits is such an undesirable activity–or penalty. Everybody would know if you’d been naughty, 'cause you’d be slathered with blue sticky goo.\* \*Now, now. ---

“Captain, the Exploding Smurf Torpedo has left a huge sticky trail of blue crap from Florida to Venezuela–and millions of people are buried in it! And this just in from California: Millions of people are spending millions of dollars so every fool and his mother can run for governor and now they’re all buried under reams of ballot paper.” Who needs Xindi to make trouble when we’ve already got ourselves? is this thread done yet? ---

yeah, our chinese partners are having problems getting their genotyping machine working, so my supervisor went to help. (Since he’s from China and Chinese he also speaks Mandarin, which is a big help over there) ---

kn\*ckers can find a library. They have PCs. I understand that there are several in Boston. ---

On second thought…this thread can just be our catch-all and our little playground during rerun time later this year. I hear the sound of bagpipes playing “Amazing Grace” for **Kn\*ckers**. **Tars** , did you get your recall sample ballot yet? 135 frikkin’ names. If any of you out there want a photocopy of one as a Souvenir o’ Cali-foolishness, just let me know. ---

The recall ballot for guv’nor. You know, with Ah-nold, Larry Flynt, porn star Mary Carey, Gallagher, Gary Coleman, Angelyne, and a load of others: a middleweight sumo wrestler, a film maker named Lorraine (Abner Zurd) Fontanes, college students, a used car dealer, a golf professional…Oh, forget it. I can’t go on. I wouldn’t be surprised if there were a flippin’ Suliban in there somewhere. ---
